CalArts’ Office of Alumnx and Family Engagement held a screening of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (Paramount / Nickelodeon) on January 8, 2024. Character Animation alumnx Jeff Rowe directed the film, and I was fortunate to have the chance to do a Q&A with him after the screening!
It was great talking to Jeff about TMNT — hearing his thoughts about themes of family and belonging explored in the film, getting to hear about other CalArts alumnx who worked on it, stories about the amazing voice talent and composers, and more.
