Invitation to Ask Questions Regarding Getting a Cartoon Series Produced and Funded

Tue, Apr 1, 2008

Animation Business, Cartoons

Hi All,

I’ve received a lot of questions and good responses ever since I published my article on ‘8 Steps to Producing a Cartoon Series’.

I would like to invite you to ask all your questions regarding this topic, and I will answer whatever I can to clear any of your doubts and to help those interested in this area. I will be as concise as I can and point out various relevant resouces.

Please note that I will only answer questions to those posted in the blog as comments so that everyone can benefit through them. I am making this exclusive to my blog so that this entry may one day be a valuable resource to anyone wanting to raise funding and produce their own animated series.

I don’t profess to know all the answers, but having done this a few times, I have that little bit of experience to share - so do be gentle if you catch me clueless. For those that might have the answer, please feel free to contribute.

Also, there might be questions that are related but fall outside the scope of this topic, and although I will do my best to reply, but please don’t expect me to be able to answer all questions as they may be simply too difficult to answer.

Please direct your questions to aldric@media-freaks.com.

I look forward to your questions.

Thank you and kind regards,
Aldric

    Hey guys, Rob Mack from Sydney here, thanks for the opportunity to discuss taking the leap. I have been chipping away at an animated music video concept for quite some time now which I plan to release by end of 2010. I have solid 3d skillset as well as fairly thorough training in aesthetics and business.

    I’m leaning heavily toward edgy rather than cute and am wondering for a start what other traits a team of say 4 characters should have… I’m working on back stories and interpersonal dynamics and my goal is to have them all stylised enough to be recognised as a unit as well as empowering them each with purposeful individuality.

    Also, with funding, did you sell your ideas? What rights did you retain to the Intellectual Property?

    Thanks again for the opportunity to discuss this here at Mediafreaks;)

    Cheers
    Rob

    Hi,

    I was wondering if we could have a quick chat about finding investors for funding of cartoon series, maybe there’s some information, tips or hints you can give me to narrow down where to look and who to look for.

    Thanks, you can email me at darcy_poirier@hotmail.com.

    Hi Darcy,

    Thanks for your comment.

    I’m not sure if you seen my article http://blog.media-freaks.com/8-steps-to-producing-a-cartoon-series. This should actually shed some light on financing. If you want a more thorough discussion, I would prefer if you ask me your questions here directly so others may benefit. I may write an article to answer your questions.

    Thanks
    Aldric
