STEPHEN COLBERT PRESENTS TOONING OUT THE NEWS

As Art Director for Paramount+’s “Stephen Colbert Presents Tooning Out The News,” I steered the look of the show: designing key characters, logos, and show packages, as well as hiring and overseeing the day-to-day output of the Background, Character Design, and Graphics departments. Various other duties involved the development of keyart, promotional and social media material. “Tooning Out” garnered two Emmy® nominations within its first two seasons in the Outstanding Short Form Comedy, Drama Or Variety Series category.
