JOHN P. FUNK
Captain Cozmic of Planet Patrol in "Space Adventure" mini web-series created by John P. Funk. John explains that the inspiration for his fun filled action packed Space Adventure cartoon was born out of his love for the Apollo Space Program of the 1960's, 70's. John has been creating Space inspired art since he was a very young child.
John uses real miniatures and model inventions that he makes from scratch in similar fashion to the spaceships, landscapes and sets created for the original Star Wars films. John incorporates LED lighting and electronics making his models real Special Effects miniatures. John then precisely photographs every model, figure and set location and photoshop's them into a format in which he can render his images into 3D Studio combining 3D FX graphics thus giving his show a unique look that is a testament to his skills as a visual artist, filmmaker and storyteller.
John also composes the music, Writes, Directs and Produces each episode and also providing voice talent for the title character Captain Cozmic and Robor the robot assistant. The mini web series is dedicated to John's mother who after passing away in 1996, had her ashes rocketed up into space where he brands that she is in on the ultimate "Space Adventure"! John's intent with the mini web series is to create interest into his unique brand of family friendly entertainment with educational spin-offs that will encourage youth to dream big and be creative while learning about the universe and our respecting our planet earth.
