Ben Bocquelet
Benjamin Bocquelet (born 27 June 1980) is a French-British animator, writer, director and producer, best known as the creator of the
Cartoon Network animated series ''
The Amazing World of Gumball.'' He was also the director of a short film called ''The Hell's Kitchen'' in 2003. When
Cartoon Network Development Studio Europe was created in 2007, Bocquelet was hired in order to help people pitch their projects to Cartoon Network after the dismissal of
Nickelodeon and
Jetix subdivisions of
Europe. However, when the studio decided to have its employees all pitch their own ideas, he decided to take some of the rejected characters he had created for commercials and put them all in one series, with a school setting. Daniel Lennard, Khaki Jones, and
Brian A. Miller, the Vice President of Original Series and Development at
Turner Broadcasting System, liked the idea and the series was ultimately greenlit.
