Eric Radomski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eric Radomski is a producer most closely linked with Warner Bros. Animation. He is perhaps best known as co-creator and co-producer of Batman: The Animated Series.

Radomski was working as a background artist on the animated series Tiny Toon Adventures when the success of Tim Burton's first Batman film prompted Warner Bros. to consider a Batman animated series. Radomski and character animator Bruce Timm each separately applied to work on the new series, and were assigned to work together on a short showcase animation, which resulted in them being made producers and put in charge of the series.

Other series Radomski has worked on as a producer include the Emmy Award-winning Xiaolin Showdown and another comic book adaptation, Spawn (for HBO). He has worked as a Animation Producer for the theatrically released movies The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys, and Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (based on the Animated Series).

[edit] Trivia

• Radomski came up with the initial innovation that created the overall "look" of Batman: The Animated Series by ordering that all backgrounds be painted on black paper with lighter colors, instead of using darker colors on white paper as was the industry standard.
