"I am over 30, love cats and any kind of design jobs."
By DEANNA DAHLSAD
No, that's not Kat Caverly herself speaking, it's No Evil Productions
Dream Team member Sai Ming Yiu. He could be saying this to flatter his
boss, but after nearly 5 years and over 100 brochures, print ads,
catalogues, and greeting cards (including roughly 30 animations), we
don't think Sai Ming's in any danger of losing his job.
Sai Ming Yiu is from Hong Kong. He's studied 3d animation and graphic
design at the School of Visual Arts in New York and British Arts College
and has worked as a graphic designer in Hong Kong. He met Kat Caverly in
October 2000 after graduating with a degree in computer arts.
When asked to discuss his coming to work for Katakismet, Sai Ming said
"I was looking for some graphic design job and we talked on the phone
for over 15 minutes."
(I know he must be lying about the length of time – people who
accidentally make 'wrong number' calls to Kat Caverly are on the phone
longer than that!)
Sai Ming continued "We have a lot in common; we both love cats and Hong
Kong actor Jackie Chan."
It's no wonder then, that Sai Ming is behind the development of Smuggly
the duck and his cousin Quacki.
Along with Smuggly and Quacki, Pearl the Puffer Fish is one of his favorite projects.
