Until Mr. Carter mentioned to the class about FatKat, I had no idea that they existed, and that it was located in the Miramichi.
In 2000, Gene Fowler submitted his design portfolio, and was offered to make a flash animated interactive training film for a new e-learning company in San Diego, California. He then named his company after one of his friends who had a fat cat.
In 2002 it was taken over by Trainingscape Inc. and was renamed Trainingscape Studios Canada.
Gene's team produced over 40 films for 500 companies such as, Nike, Hasbro, and Boeing, but in February of 2003, Trainingscape shut down.
In May 2003, the company signed a contract with CBC, and produced New Brunswick's first animated television series, and is the largest independant studio on the east coast.
I felt that the FatKat blog is very colorful, and appealing to the eye. Also, it has a lot of videos that their fans can watch, and that other people can watch at any time to show what they are about.
Questions To Ask Robbie Anderson:
1. How did you feel when your company was renamed?
2. Why did you relocate your company to the Miramichi?
3. What is your favorite animated series, and why?
