Writer, English language script – animated feature. Produced by Sunrise, Japan / Zro Limit.
Released in the US by Columbia Tristar.
“While the English dubbing on most Japanese cartoons ranges from annoying to fingernails-on-a-chalkboard, Bebop does it right. …The translation leaves the show’s wit intact, and the voice actors’ laid-back, believable style suits the show to a T…So yes, highbrow America, it’s now officially safe to watch anime. You can finally start believing those sweaty dorks who’ve tried to tell you, for years, that it’s more than giant robots and saucer-eyed schoolgirls.. .” –Teevee Review

Steamboy – スチームボーイ
Writer, English language script – animated feature. 2005 Directed by Katsuhiro Otomo (Akira), starring Patrick Stewart and Anna Paquin. Producer: Sunrise. Distributor: Tristar / Sony Ent. American Script: Zro Limit.
“A Jules Verne-like tale of invention, wonder and adventure.” L.A. Times 3/17/05
“Rarely do I say that an anime with an English dub is better then the original Japanese, but, in the case of “Steamboy,” it is certainly so. When I first saw this in Japanese it took me a long time to figure out who was American or who was from what region of England, while the English version nailed every dialect… The voice talents of Patrick Steward, Anna Paquin, and Alfred Molina were solid as well and really befitting …the best steam punk film to date” – Rotten Tomatoes

Bizmark (Saber Rider)
Executive Story Editor / Writer – English Language version Studio Pierrot / World Events – Animated T.V. Series
Writer 6 original episodes / 40+ adr episodes
“The themes of the Old West, and the new themes of Science Fiction and Space Travel are combined together so smoothly that you wonder why can’t all the newer animated TV series today be this good? …”
“Marc Handler, the animated TV series writer behind both “Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs”, and “Voltron: Defender of the Universe”, the immediate predecessor to this newer series, cleaned up all the weak flaws in the look and style of that story format, and imbued it with even better characters and story plot elements than ever before. In the arc of the stories for “Saber Rider”, the events are more character driven, and less dependent on what the enemy wants to do next…. The Star Sheriffs… provide a wide range of superb interaction with each other, in each of their stories. A sense of teamwork, family, and unity for a cause, that of defending the New Frontier, so that mankind can settle and explore space in peace.” Absolute Animé
