Burbank, CA - The Creative Talent Network (CTN) has announced an exciting roster of personal appearances, panel discussions and eXpo exclusives for the second annual CTN animation eXpo to be held on November 19-21 at the Burbank Marriott Convention Center, CA. The event will feature this CTN exclusive US appearance of the legendary author, designer and comic artist Jean Giraud "Moebius in "An Evening with Moebius" with networking reception after on November 20th, 2010.

For the first time in over 15 years, according to Tina Price, Founder of The Creative Talent Network®, we will have a rare opportunity to see and hear from this internationally recognized artist, Jean Giraud "Moebius". His work has not only profoundly influenced the worlds of science-fiction, animation, 3D imagery and video games for over thirty years but "Moebius" drawings have attracted the attention of great filmmakers who have asked him to collaborate on films including Luc Besson’s 5th Element, James Cameron’s Abyss, Steven Lisberger’s Tron and Ridley Scott’s Alien to name a few. I am proud to present Jean Giraud at the eXpo in this CTN exclusive appearance.

The CTN eXpo is focused on creating a privileged limited edition experience for attendees by bringing the best talent from around the world and putting them "center stage". The intimate venue at the Burbank Marriott Convention Center is perfect for this unique event, one that you just wouldn't get anywhere else.

In addition to "An Evening with Moebius" the eXpo includes sessions with award winning New Yorker cover illustrator Carter Goodrich, lead animator from "Nocturna" Pablo Navarro, "Despicable Me" screenplay writer and master animator Sergio Pablos, "Alvin and the Chipmunks" Animation Director Chris Bailey, "Megamind" lead character designer Chen-Yi Chang, the director of "Princess and the Frog" John Musker and many more along with acclaimed animation studios recruiting and presenting from Spain, Canada, Germany, Ireland and the US. Event sponsors include Dreamworks Animation, Woodbury University , Ai of Hollywood, Sony Pictures Animation, The Walt Disney Divisions, Cartoon Brew, Animation Magazine, Animation World Network and the City of Burbank .

"Moebius" is in the house at the only event of it's kind this November 20th. The CTN animation eXpo is held once a year during what is officially proclaimed "Animation Week" just for this event in the media capital of the world, Burbank, Ca.
