Natasha Allegri is an American storyboard artist, storyboard revisionist and comic book artist, but is best known for her work as a storyboard revisionist for Cartoon Network's Adventure Time and as the creator of Frederator Studio's Bee and Puppycat.
Allegri met Pendleton Ward, creator of Adventure Time during her high school and college years when she used to make comics about her day-to-day life on LiveJournal. Ward, who also used LiveJournal had taken a like to her work and contacted her about working on his show Adventure Time where she has worked for five seasons. Whilst working on the show Allegri liked to play around with the idea of gender-swapping characters where these were eventually featured in full episodes.
In 2013, Allegri produced an animated short for Frederator Studio's youtube channel, Cartoon Hangover. The show follows the story of a young, unemployed woman who is met with a strange and magic creature resembling both a dog and a cat, Puppycat. When she decides to take him in she makes an unlikely discovery that he is able to conjure temp jobs from outer space and together they go on wild and otherworldly adventures.
After the show gained popularity and following, Frederator launched a kickstarter to raise funds for a season. The fundraiser was successful and exceeded their original goal of $600, 000 and were able to raise a ground breaking $872, 133, making them the 4th most funded video and film project to date.
Many artists who have inspired Allegri's work include work by Sailor Moon, Superbook and Bob's burgers. Another important source of inspiration for Allegri has been her cat, Pancake.
