Great stuff - imagine how many tapes like these are laying around undiscovered in someone's garage. Thanks for making this one public Clay. It's great to have a mix of the new talents and the legends. One for a classical perspective and the other for how that perspective is in use today. Before I start waxing more philosophical... see ya! :) Just listened to Part 1, and just downloaded Part 2.

Andy - I'm always open for questions. You just have to guess who they're for. ;) Barry - Glad you liked it. Side 2 coming soon! Jason - It's great to hear what you're taking away from these. Thanks for sharing. Yeah, I went and saw Lady and the Tramp in Hollywood a few weeks ago when they had the panel with Andreas. It's such amazing work - the whole thing. It's my favorite Disney film. I always get choked up when Trusty - well, you know. Even though it's simple, it's a masterpiece! Jeremy - When I was putting this together I kept thinking, "Where have I seen those thumbnails?" That's for jogging my memory! You're right, a perfect match! If I do any video podcasts, it will be with the same approach as the audio: point the camera at the guests! J - Agreed!

This is a perfect addition to Seward Street audio lectures and the thumbnails of Medusa that Andrew posted on the Spline Docters blog. Thanks again for putting this together and sharing it with the world. P.S. Hopefully someday you'll do a video podcast and then everyone can draw caricatures of you :P Take care Clay The Milt Kahl lecture was great!

Thanks for sharing these.. There's soo much inspiration in each of them.. Being an animation supervisor I really identified with Eamonn Butler talking about how you aren't always looking for what you like.. but what you think the director will like.. In fact I have a quote from that show stuck to the side of my monitor at work now "just because you don't like it... doesn't mean it's not good". And the Milt Audio.. priceless... I've spent the last few night with my jaw on the floor watching his work in Lady and the tramp.. What a master of this craft he was.. I can't even imagine being at Cal arts and havign Milt show up.. Inasne!! thanks again.. and keep podcasting..!! Great podcasts Clay!! Thanks for sharing these.. There’s soo much inspiration in each of them..

Though, my services as a "cleaner" might be exaggerated. It's very hard to give you any suggestions, because you've already asked so many big questions to your guests. I can't, at the moment, think of any questions that wouldn't waste anyone's time. As soon as I do, I'll be right back here.:) Props again on the show. The Milt Khal find was super sweet. I can't wait for side 2. andy Clay,

I appreciate them all, but my favorite is having comments on the site. The fact that these shows can create a discussion about animation is thrilling to me and, like the shows, it's right here for anyone to read. I've had the conversation a few times in the last week about what it costs me to do this and whether making money on it is important. To say it plainly, I love doing this. I love creating something that wasn't there before, putting it out in the world, and hearing that it makes peoples' lives more enjoyable via inspiration, motivation, or illumination. So far the results have been well worth the expenses in time and effort. So to make a long answer longer, you're already doing your part by letting me know you appreciate it. And I appreciate that! I don't want anyone to get the impression that I only do it for the feedback, but that's the only way I know if the shows are doing their job. It may be interesting to note that judging by the number of downloads each show has, about 0.3% of the audience leaves any form of feedback. That's 0.3, as in not even 1%. So you and anyone else who takes the time to comment here, give yourself a pat on the back, and know that when it's 1:00 a.m. and I want to go to sleep, it may be your latest comment that reminds me to keep working on the next show. By the way, I'll keep your "services" in mind if the need should ever arise. -Clay Andy - Since I started this, I’ve asked for a few things - votes on PodcastAlley.com (not so vital anymore, I think), reviews on iTunes (I still like those), and comments and feedback here and on the feedback hotline.

I take a show with my coffee every morning. I have learned so much about animation in the past few weeks thanks to your show. Hearing the greats talk so humbly about their art has done wonders for my motivation. Please dont ever stop. If there is anything you need from your community, please dont hesitate to ask. (I'm partial to gang-land style executions. I'm not too sure if you need anyone to "disappear", but just say the word... :) Thanks again. andy Clay,

Believe me, there's PLENTY of editing going on for every show :) , and I find that GarageBand is very good for that. There are other programs that do far more, but like when I really need to edit some video fast, I skip the Final Cut Pro and go straight for the simplicity of iMovie. I do wish that iPods had a better way of jumping between chapters in AAC files. As far as I know, you just have to scroll until you get to the next one in the audio. Thanks for the feedback.
