BTW ... "Mchelean" ??? COME ON!!!

Did I? Gads, I don't remember working on that one ... But hey, if some of it looked like I animated on it, well you know, everybody wishes they could animate like me ... :D

I'll tell ya what I know about WB ink & paint. During the years we serviced Warner Bros (1992-2000), it was understood that all shows were to be produced on 35 mm film. The explanation for this was that the industry was in a state of flux and they were looking forward to the Hi-Def Era, and...

Either A) Chuck Jones would roll over in his grave, or B) the universe would be swallowed up in a giant swirling vortex.

Never dressed up like him, but he was my cartoon inspiration as a kid ...

I think you guys are underestimating Nathan's ability to ham it up and have fun. I know from experience with my own kids that they love pretending to cry. Not that I was there at the recording of this episode, but I would bet serious money that nothing terrible had to be done to get him to cry...

Correct. Incorrect. More studios = more hassle, trickier logistics.

Character layouts are always done - sometimes by the animator as he/she animates. Animation doesn't happen without character layouts. Not sure what you're hearing. They are singing, and their voices are a little distorted to match the Macarena style. Maybe Tom R knows who did the music ... not...

OK, who's going to be the first one to tell cavgurl that Tom was the executive producer of Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Freakazoid, and how many others ... ?

Would anybody happen to know which four episodes are being released in this European Volume 1?

To start with, my eyes feel the same way. But the thing about Dexter's Lab and Fairly Oddparents is that many years from now, when its audience is grown up and the executives of the future to decide to remake them, their fans will want it in the same style, the same look as those characters...

Sorry, hadn't been following this thread ... but look, here's the thing: When Tiny Toonscame on the scene, it was really revolutionary for an animated TV series. It was the first time anybody had tried to capture the old Golden Age wackiness in a TV series. Up until that stage Akom had been...

Ha! I never heard the full account - seems like whenever you'd start to tell that story you'd end up having to rush to another meeting or something. I gotta question for you, Tom: In the beginning of that short, we see a silhouette of Plucky in the mist, and he says something like, "I...

Philmister is correct-a-mundo. Warner Bros just lumped her in with the Animation Department when they (presumably) submitted the credits to IMDB. IMDB however, must have Kathy McClenahan confused with somebody else where they list her as a SPFX artist. They are now living in Richmond, VA, but...

We never knew who would be lucky enough to get credits when we gave our lists to WB. And we would often be surprised when the names of artists who didn't work for us - obviously WB staff artists - would show up on the credits - folks who never did anything on a particular production. Once, as...
