Skwigly.com presents Animation One-To-Ones featuring Mel Cionco in conversation with veteran TV animation executive Rich Magallanes. Having dedicated 20+ years to creating content for children, Rich has served as lead Content Creator, Developer, Showrunner, and Executive Producer for high-profile networks such as Nickelodeon, Saban Brands, Funrise Inc., and Mattel. The youngest of five brothers, Rich grew from welfare and government food stamps to becoming Senior Vice President of Production and Animation. His childhood nurtured his creative roots to support more kids with content that ignites their imagination and teaches positive lessons, so that they too can be inspired to achieve what others might believe to be impossible. Rich’s extensive list of hit shows includes Rainbow Butterfly Unicorn Kitty, SpongeBob SquarePants, The Fairly OddParents, Danny Phantom, ChalkZone, Teenage Robot, El Tigre, Invader ZIM, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to name a few. Recently, Rich made a triumphant return to Nickelodeon as a Consulting Producer, serving to reinvigorate hit animated preschool entertainment for kids.
