Biography
In the early 1990s, animation storyboard artist Chuck Patton got his chance to direct some programs such as 1990's "G.I. Joe" and 1992's "Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas." But it was with 1997's crime drama "Spawn" that he made his biggest impact as a director. The superhero cartoon netted him an Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program. On the storyboard side of things, the work has been equally sporadic. He worked on five episodes of "Dinosaucers" in 1987, four episodes of "Teen Titans" in 2005, and a pair of "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" assignments in 2010. Another show that Patton worked on briefly was "The Real Ghostbusters," and the team's continuing eradication of phantoms. Although the animated entry featured the same characters as the film series and counted Harold Ramis among its producer ranks, the voices of the main characters were played by an odd assortment of actors. For example, voicing the part of Winston Zeddemore was Arsenio Hall, just a few years ahead of his groundbreaking late night talk show.
