Developing Your Animated TV Show Pitch

Mon Sep 7, 2009, 12:02 PM
I thought my DA friends might be interested in a couple of my newest ArtCasts:

IN THESE EPISODES ::

I explain my own process for developing pitches for animated TV shows.

I also share a few insights about what I value in collaborators.

I raise one very important question that we all need to ask ourselves as we develop pitches for any medium and I talk about how I think that character turnarounds are overrated.

I also recommend a few books that cover the development and pitching of animated TV shows.

Hey Chris, Enjoying the new shows.
Wouldn't worry about not being able to show what you're working on now man. (I go through the same things at my job sometimes).

Just keep showing love through you show man.

Show what you can when you can and the rest we get.

This takes me back to sitting around the Oatler's kitchen table at 2 AM smelling that awful green stuff and watching you turn into the Hulk when your Ninja Turtle's foot fell off... one more time.

Pretty amazing, eh?

Castillene. Awesome. Yes, that Ninja Turtle sculpt was doomed from the start... LOL!

Hey Chris,

Hoping to see more of your work soon.
:iconchrisoatley:
Me too, Manny! I am feeling a little nuts - doing SOOO MUCH work and not being able to show any of it for years to come. But I guess that's just the cost of having an awesome job working on movies. I'm thankful but I do get sad when i can't show my friends what I'm doing. : )

I heard your interview at Big Illustration Party Time and immediately followed your art cast. As a fellow artist and still new to the field, your efforts to help other artists and positive attitude are inspirational!
