I was contacted by
TBWA/RAAD to design and illustrate characters to appear
on a series of advertisements for
Cartoon Network's Animation Academy. The characters are in three separate groups (humans, monsters and superheroes)
and all are in unfinished states, bored and waiting to be completed by animators at the school.

Christopher Nolan can’t talk about Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s rumored appearance (which has already been completely and totally denied by JGL’s peoples) in Man of Steel as The Bat. And while we are on the subject of Man of Steel, I am just going to assume that you saw the trailer that everyone went frikkin’ batsh*t over this week. I saw it and I have the same thing to say about it that I’ve been saying for months – TARNISHY. One other Man of Steel related thing, the French magazine, Studio Cine Live, has a cover which shows a closeup of the new, very tarnishy and high tech sporty Superman suit for the super reboot.

Cartoon Network has ordered 14 episodes of a new animation short series called Clarence, created by Skyler Page. Clarence will be the third series to be developed by the network’s “shorts development initiative.” The first two series to come out of the short’s initative, Rebecca Sugar’s Steven Universe and Pete Browngardt’s Uncle Grandpa, were announced in September, with production reportedly beginning early next year (via Deadline)
Lastly, The Fantastic Four reboot release date has been announced. The film’s release is set for March, 2015. (via ComingSoon.net)
Have a nice weekend, people! Try not to do anything too weird.

Cartoon Network has unveiled a poster for Steven Universe, the new animated series by Rebecca Sugar:
Slated to debut in 2013, Steven Universe is a coming-of-age story told from the perspective of Steven, the youngest member of a team of magical Guardians of the Universe. The animated series was conceived as part of the shorts development initiative at Cartoon Network Studios, and is created by Emmy and Annie Award-nominated writer and storyboard artist Rebecca Sugar (Adventure Time). Sugar is Cartoon Network’s first solo female show creator.
See more Cartoon Brew coverage about Rebecca Sugar.
Ghostshrimp (aka Dan James), an artist on Adventure Time and The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, is currently developing his own seven-minute pilot for Cartoon Network called Mars Safari. This is a peek at some of the pitch materials:
A few months back, Ghostshrimp posted some of the pilot’s insanely fussy notes he received from Cartoon Network’s standards & practices. They include such gems as:
The gang would need to be wearing seatbelts in this car.
This pooping bit would need Rob [Sorcher]’s okay before we elevate for Stu [Snyder]’s approval.
We’d need to see color models for the Alien guys here. There may be some issues with them stealing the car radio as it could play like an offensive stereotype
The references to the Afterlife would need Rob’s okay before we elevate for Stu’s approval.
Mister Nuggets suggesting that Bull Goose has mental problems would need Rob’s okay before we elevate for Stu’s approval.
It raises the question, If Cartoon Network is worried about such trivial matters, why would they greenlight a pilot for someone who openly jokes about incest and rape on his Facebook fan page? Ghostshrimp’s latest Facebook update asks, “But what would you do if you woke up and your mom was giving you a hand job?”
An earlier Facebook posting, which appears to have since been deleted, asked, “If you could rape anybody, ever, anywhere, who would it be?” This is a screengrab of the post (click for a larger version):

It’s the height of hypocrisy for Cartoon Network to be so finicky over innocuous gags expressed in an animator’s cartoon, and yet turn a blind eye to a show creator’s public persona, which would be considered genuinely offensive by many people. The art we create is a reflection of our values and principles (whether we intend it to be or not), and when someone treats serious subject matter in a flippant manner, that attitude will inevitably seep into their work, too.
This is fine, of course, if Cartoon Network embraced the crude ideas of the artists they hired and if they’d given Ghostshrimp a long leash to explore his unconventional sense of humor. But the standards & practices notes tell a different story: Cartoon Network goes to great lengths to preserve a veneer of decency, while ignoring the fact that some of their show creators are anything but decent.

Cartoon Network is working to educate kids about bullying with their new original documentary Speak Up, which will air Sunday, March 18 at 5:30pm, then at 8pm, commercial-free. It is part of their Stop Bullying: Speak Up campaign to help kids to speak up about bullying and support those who’ve been bullied. Speak Up features interviews with kids aged 8-13, talking about bullying–by those who’ve been bullied, watched bullying happen, or been bullies themselves. Speak Up also includes Cartoon Network’s three hosts of Dude, What Would Happen, as well as Chris Webber (NBA All-Star), Matt Wilhelm (Pro BMX champion), and NASCAR drivers Trevor Bayne, Jeff Burton and Joey Logano, who all share their experiences about bullying and encourage kids to speak out. Before, during and after the documentary, bullying prevention expert and author Rosalind Wiseman will talk more about bullying, and answer viewer questions online at StopBullyingSpeakUp. The documentary will also be posted the website afterwards, and will be offered free of charge to customers through Comcast Xfinity, Facebook, iTunes, Xbox 360+Kinect and YouTube.com, each for at least two weeks after the documentary first airs.
I like seeing companies making an effort to try to help kids and make things better. Good on Cartoon Network.

JG Quintel, creator of Cartoon Network's Regular Show at Comic Con 2011 (Image via Wikipedia)
The following interview with JG Quintel, the creator of Cartoon Network’s Regular Show, took place outside an East Hollywood Bar earlier this year. The interview was conducted as research for a Publisher’s Weekly article on the tremendous amount of independent comics talent working on Cartoon Network Shows like Regular Show. Animator/Cartoonist Benton Connor was hanging out with us for the duration of the chat and managed to squeeze a couple of choice sound bites and some additional levity into the conversation.
Shannon O’Leary: Calvin Wong a storyboarder and writer on Regular Show and Hellen Jo a storyboard revisionist on the show both claim you found their respective mini-comics at the Sparkplug Comic Books table at San Diego Comic Con in 2009. Sparkplug isn’t exactly a mainstream comics publisher or distributor, what brought you to their table that year?
JG Quintel: At the time I was gearing up for the (Regular) show. I was looking for new people and knew I wanted to look at independent comics because the style matched closer. A lot of mainstream comics, like Spiderman or whatever, don’t really fit what we’re looking for.
SO: How does it not fit? How does indie fit more?

JG Quintel and Benton Connor (Image via Calvin Wong's Tumblr)
JG: A lot of independent comics (are) written and drawn by the same person. It’s not done in a company kind of aspect where one person writes, one person draws, and one person inks. I wanted to find people who were the total package because we’re not a script based show. We’re a storyboard driven show – where the board artists write the dialogue and draw the drawings. Usually with comics you can tell right away what kind of sense of humor (someone) has. Are they funny? Can they draw? Do they understand perspective? You can tell a lot by a little mini-comic. And

Part one of a two part series of email Q&A’s with the indepedent cartoonists working at Cartoon Network. There are so many of them and they were so generous with their time and answers that we had to break their answers up into two posts! These Q&A’s were conducted as research for a Publisher’s Weekly article that spotlights the vast pool of indepent comics talent that’s currently rocking Cartoon Network’s world.
Martin Cendreda (Technical Director, The Problem Solverz):
How did you come to work on The Problem Solverz?
John Pham, a designer on Problem Solverz, was my man on the inside. He was hounding me for months to apply for a job on the show. But I was a stay-at-home parent at the time, so I was reluctant at first. Eventually I caved. He got me a meeting with Ben Jones, the creator, and Nate Funaro, the producer and they decided to take a chance on me.
How does your work in comics inform your work in animation and vice versa?
Since my position on Problem Solverz (was) mainly editorial, there’s nothing too creative or artistic about it. So comics doesn’t really inform it in any way. But doing comics over the years has taught me a lot about color, which helped me a lot on some Flash animation jobs I had previously, where I had to color backgrounds or come up with color palettes for an episode. As far as animation informing my comics work, there are times when I’m drawing a character in a comic panel, where I feel I need to push the “silhouette” more, and that goes all the way back to my animation school days at UCLA.
What comics have you made?
Publications to date (oldest to newest): Zurik Robot mini (2001), Hi-Horse Anthology (contributor, 2003), Dang #1 (Top Shelf, 2004), Drawn&Quarterly Showcase #4 (2006), Kramers Ergot 7 and 8(contributor), Mome #1-5 (contributor, 2006-2009), Anthology of Graphic Fiction, Cartoons and True Stories: Vol. 2 (contributor, 2008), Best American Comics (2008), Stories #1-3, (self published minis, 2009-2010)
What comics are you working on right now?
I’m currently working on a book length project, but it’s still in the thumbnail stage. I’m hoping to shop that around to publishers sometime this year.

Minty Lewis (Storyboarder and Voice Actor, Regular Show)
How did you come to work on The Regular Show?
JG (the show’s creator) asked if I would be interested in taking a storyboard test after he read some of my comics. I thought the name JG Quintel sounded suspiciously spam-like, but once I confirmed that it was the real deal, I was really excited about the opportunity. Some might say a little too excited. So I took the test and then I waited three long months before I got a call asking when I could start. I think it was about a month later that I went down to Burbank and started working as a storyboard artist/writer. I was pregnant the whole time I was working there and when the show went on hiatus last October, I decided to move back to Berkeley to give birth, etc. Much to my surprise, I got a call a few weeks later asking if I would be interested in doing the voice for the Eileen character since they had liked my voice so much in the pitch for “Do Me a Solid.” Obviously I was interested, so now I fly down to Burbank every month or two to record for Eileen.
How has your work in comics informed your work in animation and vice versa?
It’s hard to say how my work in comics has affected my work in animation since I never did any work in animation before I was doing comics. I’m sure the experience writing and drawing was useful, but I don’t think anyone would be hired to work in animation with zero background in either of those areas. I have definitely noticed a difference in how I approach comics now, though. I’m frustrated sometimes by the lack of movement allowed in them and find myself wanting to include things like camera directions and animation cues. My experience in animation has also made me very aware of how motivated I am by deadlines and accountability. The sheer quantity of work I completed at Regular Show amazes me now, and that experience makes it very hard to come up with good excuses about why it takes me so long to finish a comic.
What comics have you made in the past?
A collection of my minicomics called PS Comics was published by Secret Acres in 2009. I have also contributed to several antho

I never thought I’d be posting about Scooby Doo ever again, much less be enthusiastic about it – but I happened to catch a few episodes of Warner Animation’s new Scooby Doo, Mystery Incorporated on my flight back from a quick trip to New York last month and became fascinated with them. My mind was saying “hate this”, “turn the channel”… but my eyes and ears were sorta digging it. I’d totally ignored this show for over a year – and now I found myself liking it. A lot.
I’d always been partial to A Pup Named Scooby Doo, but there’s something odd – and cool – about this latest take on the series. First off, there’s now a story arc for the entire show, Scooby apparently has more “dialogue”, Jonny Quest and Yogi Bear make cameos, Harlan Ellison (!!) plays himself (see clip below), Shaggy gets a crewcut (and it takes several episodes to grow back!), the characters poke fun at their personalities, yet stay true to the original series — and dammit, it’s fun! Heck, it even looks a hell of a lot better than any of the previous “takes”. So I contacted producer Tony Cervone and asked him to give me the scoob… err, scoop on this show. Here’s what Tony had to say (edited for space):
“We started with the premise that they really are “meddling kids”; teenagers going to high school, doing things they shouldn’t be doing. The show is a reboot universe, we borrowed things from the entire history of Scooby-Doo. The characters elude to things in the past, from Scooby-Doo Where Are You?, they meet characters they met in the direct-to-DVDs, references to things in the live action movies, Vincent Van Ghoul from The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo is in it. We pick and choose what to include.
“There is a 52-episode story arc, and in Season 2 (currently airing) every episode counts to tell the larger story. The characters are now more like normal teenagers – they hook up on occasion and break apart. We started the series with Shaggy and Velma paired off, but then Scooby found out and there was a weird romantic triangle. Yeah, Shaggy broke it off with Velma because he didn’t want to upset his best friend too much.
“We learn who the original “Mystery Incorporated” were. They were a high school club from decades past. They come back as adults (voiced by Lewis Black, Vivica A. Fox, Tia Carrera, Udo Kier and Tim Matheson) and they’re not what the gang thought they were. It’s deep and it’s dense and it only gets deeper, denser and stranger from here on in. Dan Krall art directed the first season and set the style for the show, Steve Nicodemus has followed up on the second 26 episodes. It’s so great – I don’t even know how they let us make it.”
The show airs every weekday at 2pm EST/11am PST on Cartoon Network, right after the classic Looney Tunes, and it’s worth a look. Cervone tells me that next Thursday’s episode (Heart of Evil) contains a new, “Dark Knight” take on Dynomutt and The Blue Falcon. Those who hate Scooby-Doo will never watch this (and I totally understand) – but I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been following it. What’s your take? C’mon Scoobie fans, back me up on this.

Cartoon Network announced its new slate of series yesterday, but most of the on-line chatter is about the cancellation of Genndy Tartakovsky’s confusingly named Sym-Bionic Titan which lasted exactly one season of twenty episodes. Steve Hulett of the Animation Guild reported what he heard while wandering the halls of Cartoon Network:
“Genddy’s moved on to Sony Pictures Animation. Titan got competitive ratings with other action shows, but what shut it down was it didn’t have enough toys connected to it. If you don’t have the, the studios don’t want to renew for another season.”
The obligatory “save the show” page on Facebook currently has just over 300 members.

This show was surprisingly good. Really intricate plot threads and interesting character development. It has all that inherent cheeziness of a kid’s show, but still, It’s a shame to see it go.
“Out of all the problems and petitions on the internet, does this one needs to be on the top of your list? Ask your 12 year-old-self that question.”
Because as well all know you can only sign for one petition ever at the exclusion of all others, or care about one cause at a time.
What an incredibly stupid statement. You should have thought twice before typing that one out, Henry.
Yikes! Guess this is a sensitive subject. I am pretty sure Henry Barajas is on your side here. By writing “Ask your 12 year-old-self that question.” I think he is saying this petition DOES need to be on the top of your list.
Besides, by posting this here. There will likely be a few more signatures on the petition.
Not that it will matter in my opinion. While 2,700 signatures is pretty good for such a short time … it isn’t really a “whopping” amount. I seriously doubt the petition will get enough signatures for Cartoon Network to take notice.
You said it Ted. (in both comments) Good luck to them, but if DC has a plan (not a guaranteed thing), it’s that “Teen Titans” is a more viable brand than “Young Justice”.
I like both shows, but the handwriting has been on the wall for a while. They are both well-written, high quality shows. However, “children’s” animation is all about merchandising, and the YJ figures tanked at retail. The Green Lantern Animated figures never made it beyond prototypes, largely because of the abysmal performance of the movie toys (STILL available on clearance racks and at outlets near you). It’s really a shame.
That’s a shame as I thought Young Justice was probably the best DC-based animated series since Justice League Unlimited. As Pat French pointed out previously, good characterization with some complex storylines that went across the season.
Young Justice seemed to be directed to teens and adults, while this Teen Titan GO seems to targeted for very young kids. Perhaps the later group buys more toys?
Young Justice was the only DC Nation show I watched. I kept hearing good things about Green Lantern: TAS but I just cant get into that kind of animation.
Thanks for bringing this up though cause this petition is definitely getting my signature, whether its going to accomplish something or not.
Young Justice AND Green Lantern Are BOTH REALLY good shows! And they’re both VERY well written! Why CANCEL THEM!? As for the annoying orange and almost naked animals. The HELL WITH THEM! Those shows SUCK!
I wanted to watch Young Justice, but they’ve made it frigging impossible. Between pulling it from broadcast and charging through the ass to buy episodes, I’ve yet to see a single full episode.
mad as hell the producers anounnced today they stop production for both shows they got me tight now the option is to keep bitching and make cartoon Network bring the show the show averaged like 1.9 million viewers a week and GLTAS brung in !.6 million views and you reward that by taking it off maybe we should consider getting the show picked up by another network
Young Justice too its self too seriously, I didn’t rly like it…Green Lantern on the other hand was a enjoyable pulpy space opera and I liked the character Razer and his drama with Aya. Sad to see GL go, these other two shows I’m not really thrilled about. how do they intend to expand DC nation if they are cancelling GL and YJ?
The handwriting about YJ was on the wall. I seem to recall some behind-the-scenes scuttlebutt on a podcast how YJ is a problem for DC since it still held on to the pre-52 designs and situations and wasn’t in line with the current publishing direction.
Kinda surprised by GLTAS. That’s probably because of bad timing. I betcha CN was winding down GLTAS because the merchandising just wasn’t there. Then Disney pulls the rug out from under CN by purchasing Lucasfilm and yanking Clone Wars off CN. If this had occurred earlier in the season, we’d probably be seeing another season of GLTAS.
As it is, I betcha they’re secretly working on a Superman animated series to tie in with the movie.
[...] of Young Justice are rallying against the cancellation of the show. (The [...]
“Out of all the problems and petitions on the internet, does this one needs to be on the top of your list? Ask your 12 year-old-self that question.”
No problem, my inside child told me “Please don’t let an interesting show be cancelled and tell this guy he is an Asshole”.
Easy there young me… he didn’t meant to be an Asshole!
