I was surprised that no one mentioned ToonBoom. I’d really like to hear more about implementation of the ToonBoom pipeline. I’ve played with ToonBoom Studio a bit and really like it. Are animators drawing on paper or tablets? How has it changed the process? Pros and cons?

Love the show! I’ve listened to all of them. It’s are real treasure. Anyone reading that has not checked out Eric Goldberg’s book, go get it now! I just finished it, and it’s amazing. I’ll be rereading it many times in the future.

Thanks for all your work, Clay!

I a bit of a newcomer to the animation podcast, but this was the first one I discovered. I just want to thank you all for all the amazing insight into the industry. Being someone who would love to work at a place like Disney, this is by far one of the most useful resources I’ve come across so far.

I do have a question though: what scene was it that Sarah (I believe it was Sarah) got back into Frog? I don’t know if you’re allowed to say, but I just saw Princess and the Frog when it opened, and I am dying to know!

Keep up the amazing work Clay!

Thanks again,
Kati

Hello Clay,

I just want to start out by saying that i love the interviews. I have a deep passion for disney hand drawn
animation and it has been very inspiring to listen to some of the greats talk about their lives as Disney Animators.

I have a question about getting started in learning the 2d animation process. I have previously completed a 3d animation program and am looking to explore hand drawn animation. What would you tell an inspiring animator to begin that wanted to learn and break into 2d animation? Animation is a labor of love for me and i understand how intensive it can be.

Again thank you for the interviews, especially the one with Glen Keane, his work is amazing. Thanks for all that you do with this site.

Hello Clay,

What a great surprise this was! I found your new show while searching about the Talent Development Program on the net.

Thanks for taking the time to make all these interviews happen and share them with world. This latest one has to be one of my favourites, very insightful and inspiring (especially the comments at the end.) Very funny as well.

Yay for a new episode. This was quite an interesting podcast to listen to, and I agree with the others, that it was nice to get a different point of view!
Hope the next podcast will come soon
