Bink is a cartoon character and the unofficial mascot of Eric Miller Animation Studios. He was created by Eric M. Miller and Charlie Petrek at the Eric Miller Animation Studios in 2015, and designed by Valerio Fabbretti. Bink is an unknown species from Earth who is covered in yellow fur with blue spots, and cloth wraps around his forearms, and lower legs. He also wears an amulet around his neck which looks like a compass of some sort. [1]
Bink first appeared in the first episode of the animated web series "Bink" which was released in May 2016. In the web series it shows Bink in a testing facility where scientist perform tests on him to learn about him and his unknown species. In the web series there is a mechanical hand which attempts to perform the tests on Bink, but is often unsuccessful at getting Bink to behave during the tests. The humor comes from this conflict between the two characters. [2]
On March 10, 2015 Eric Miller contacted his friend Charlie Petrek about helping him to create an animated web series based on a cute little creature. They met for lunch to talk about what Miller wanted to do, and in continuing discussions, developed the idea for a web series starring Bink. [2]
The name Bink comes from a shortened version of a nickname which Miller was given by his family in his youth. It was a name he was not fond of in his teenage years, but later grew to accept it as a term of endearment. Eric thought it would be a great name for his new character. [3]
Miller contacted Valerio Fabbretti about doing the character design for Bink. Fabbretti had illustrated the “Action Movie Kid” book written by Mandy Richardville and Daniel Hashimoto based on the “Action Movie Kid” YouTube web-series.[ citation needed ] Fabbretti agreed to do the character design, and in May 2015 started his work with Miller to design Bink. By July 2015 they had a final design. [2]
William Dougan is the current voice of Bink. [1]
Bink is the star of the animated web series by the same name as the character. Eric Miller Animation Studios, the studio who produces the Bink shorts, plans to do additional episodes of "Bink", but at this time there is only one episode.
