Biography
John B. Ludwick has been a 2-D animator for nearly a decade. He has directed 2-D and 3-D animation television spots for the Cartoon Network, PBS Kids, Toon Disney and many others.
John earned his Bachelor's of Fine Arts Degree in Graphic Design at the Savannah College of Art and Design. After eight years of ambling needlessly, he earned his Master of Fine Arts Degree in Sequential Art (the art of visual storytelling); the first such master's degree given in the United States. Prior to accepting the New Media academic position, he worked for the Broadcast Design firm Primal Screen in Atlanta, Georgia.
John also won the Gold Broadcast Design Award (BDA) for Best Television Website Promotion and shared a Potluck Gold BDA for the Siggraph short "Road to San Antone," which he storyboarded.
As an independent project, John designed, directed and animated the short "Baguira." This depiction of one minute in a house cat's life was shown in Brazil's 2003 Anima Mudi festival.
