Pitch Perfect Animation: Tips and Tricks to Develop a Series
Autor David B. Levyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 mai 2027 – vârsta ani
Is the system of animation development hopelessly broken? Author David B. Levy argues that if it is broken, it’s not for the first time, and, more importantly, he doesn't care. And in Pitch Perfect Animation, he suggests that readers shouldn't care either. Sassy, huh?
The goal of this book is not to exclusively help animators create the perfect pitch to sell to a buyer in the traditional model of animation development. While that might happen, a pitch might just as likely be used as part of Kickstarter materials. Or maybe it will simply be a “North Star” document that you follow with your co-creators to launch your own “Tiny Chef” on Instagram. The point is, understanding how to develop and document your idea can serve the animator's journey, no matter the destination, semi-broken industry or not.
This comprehensive guide will show animators how to tap into something personal, be informed by research, and organize pitches efficiently. Come along for the ride as a successful animation development professional shares his tips and trips and shares the advice of top talents in the business of making episodic animated series––including celebrated creators Natasha Kline (Primos), Rachel Larsen (The Tiny Chef Show), Lauren Faust (My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic), Craig McCracken (The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends), Matt Fernandez (Dino Ranch), Jennifer Twomey & Traci Paige Johnson (Gabby's Dollhouse), Emily Brundige (Strawberry Vampire), Halle Stanford (Wowsabout), Gary Doodles (Breadwinners), as well as leading executives such as Rob David (Mattel), Bin Jeong & Marina Lee (Pinkfong), Joe D'Ambrosia (Sony Pictures TV - Kids) Linda Simensky (former head of content for PBS Kids), Eric Calderon (Surviving Animation, LLC), Madison Pierce (Scholastic), Koyalee Chanda (Lion Forge Entertainment), Ellen Doherty (Fred Rogers Productions); and dozens of others.
