Survey Results: Favorite Animated Film

Here are your top picks for the Listener Survey question “What is your favorite animated film?” In all, 88 different titles were chosen as someone’s favorite film and 33 people couldn’t decide.

EDIT: WOW, what a huge oversight - I skipped Beauty and the Beast in the results. You’ll now find it at it’s rightful place, tied with Jungle Book for the number 3 spot. THANKS EMMA!

Here are the Top Ten:

10. Finding Nemo
9. 101 Dalmatians
9. The Lion King
9. The Little Mermaid
8. Spirited Away
7. Toy Story
6. Pinocchio
5. Monsters, Inc.
4. Aladdin
3. Beauty and the Beast (tied with “Undecided”)
3. The Jungle Book (tied with “Undecided”)
2. The Iron Giant
1. The Incredibles

Question : Did the email notification work?

Published on July 6, 2006 in Feedback and Inbetweens. 8 Comments

There’s a link in the sidebar to sign up for email updates. I’m wondering if the people who added their email actually got a notification of the latest podcast. If you did or didn’t, could you please let me know. Everyone doesn’t have to reply, naturally, but I’d like to hear from at least a handful of people to know if it’s working. Thanks.

Since you’re just standing around waiting…

Why don’t you take the listener survey? This isn’t some big marketing strategy. I’m just curious about who listens to the show. It shouldn’t take more than five minutes, unless you have to stop and think about who your favorite character is. Nothing personal either, just a handful of easy questions. I’d really appreciate it. Think of it as your way to give back to the show that keeps on giving.

Speaking of shows, there WILL be a new show on the site around Sunday night/Monday morning, so be sure to check back for that. I promise, you will not want to miss it. And don’t ask who it is. I won’t give.

Find the survey in header at the top, or in the sidebar, or just click right here.

A new way to leave your feedback

Published on March 22, 2006 in Feedback and Inbetweens. 3 Comments

There’s a very nice addition to the feedback options that may be of use to some of you, especially the overseas listeners: It’s the pink balloon link in the sidebar that says ‘Send me a voice message.’ (I may will update that in the future with my own image.) If you’ve got a computer with a mic, you can record right there, no need to call a phone number, AND the audio quality should be much clearer than the phone messages. You also get to review it before sending, so if you sound like a goof (which isn’t a bad thing for the show) you can start over. Good for all of us, aight? I think the only requirements are a mic on your end (duh) and flash installed for your browser. Give it a shot, if for no other reason than for helping me test it out.

While I’m on the subject of feedback, I’d like to extend a GREAT BIG THANKS to everyone who’s been commenting here on the site, as well as to the handful of people who gave some nice reviews in iTunes. And I can’t forget those of you who still vote on Podcast Alley. That’s is always appreciated since Podcast Alley is a pretty good gauge of what podcasts people like. It’s all appreciated mucho, mucho, and keeps my tank full for the podcast road ahead. By the way, the next stop will be pretty sweet!

Love is a two-way street

Published on August 1, 2005 in Elsewhere, Feedback and Inbetweens. 4 Comments

All right, with a new month, Podcast Alley has reset the votes so it’s time to give a little love back to The Animation Podcast. I’ve decided not to take time during the shows to ask you to vote, but there’s no shame in my game so you’ll be seeing this humble reminder once a month and that’s it. If you enjoy the shows, a vote is all I ask in return. Like I’ve said before, consider it a recommendation so that more people might see it in the rankings and come our way.

If you find that Podcast Alley says you’ve already voted, it may be because someone else within the same IP address as you (either at your work or in your household) has already voted. If that’s the case, thanks anyhow for trying. I appreciate it.

What’s up after three days?

Published on May 4, 2005 in Feedback, Inbetweens and Noteworthy. 13 Comments

I posted Show 1 on May 1 and the response has been overwhelming. By the end of Tuesday, I’ve had about 1100 first time visitors and over 2500 page loads. I don’t know how that relates to other sites, but for me it is definitely gratifying to see this level of interest in a project I’m so excited about.
