February 24, 2009 – Florida A&M & a New Blog Site!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Feb.27, 2009, under Cartooning, Editorials, Friends, What's New?
I was a part of a panel discussion and exhibit at Florida A&M University. The exhibit runs through March and is titled ‘Disappearing Ink’. It’s an exhibit showcasing Florida editorial cartoonists and how editorial cartoons are quickly disappearing from publications everywhere. 39 colleagues were fired or took a buyout from the newspaper company last year alone. We’ve already seen quite a few go this year and will probably see more going.
To the left is a sketch of the view of being on the receiving end of a camera. The entire event was filmed and I tried to stay still as they filmed. I’m a hyper-active person and staying still was tough!
It was a big crowd that came and was standing room only.
There are lots of photos and I’ve posted some on my new editorial cartoon blogsite, Rob’s Right. That’s alos where, from now on, my editorial cartoons will be found. So leap right over to Rob’s Right by clicking here.
