Sam Lotfi - Animator (Yellow Unit)


"Mr. Lotfi, please STOP drawing during class!" became somewhat of a mantra for Sam Lotfi's teachers during his school years. Flipping cartoons in the corners of his textbooks, drawing caricatures of his teachers, and sneaking comics inside his school books instead of reading the assigned chapters all lead to his fascination with visual storytelling.

After several successful years as an illustrator, he became increasingly obsessed with making those drawings come to life, (every boy needs friends)! We found Sam asleep at our doorstep after a long trip from another city every morning and finally decided to keep him. He's a lot like a big fuzzy bear that just eats all your food and won't leave.
