I talk with Artist in Animation Shana Dixon, who is currently working on Minnie's Bow Toons (available on Disney+ and Disney Junior's YouTube Channel). We talk about the importance of color in animation and especially for kids shows how color, like many other aspects of animation, can tell a story. Also, we talk about how long it takes to work on a 3 minute animated episode and how Disney doesn't do all of their animating in the house of Mouse. Plus, great advice as always and a trip back to when HBO had a free kids channel that I never knew about!

Plus, we get into Anik's journey to becoming an animator from growing up in Lithuania to being one of the first to study 3D Animation, to coming to Canada for formal education and his influences from independent shorts to Ren and Stimpy.

We now are entering a new phase of the Inside Animation Podcast.

Also, in this particular episode and potential future episodes, I don't interview someone directly involved in the Animation Industry.  In this episode I talk with former child actor Henry Laster, whom you may have seen on the Nickelodeon show Salute Your Shorts. While he only did voices for one particular animated project, we focus on the "Golden Era" of Nickelodeon and the shows and experiences Henry had while part of the "Nickelodeon Family", including the origin of the "Nickelodeon Splat", the consistency of Nickelodeon Slime vs today's slime, our favorite childhood cartoons on Nickelodeon, and much more fun shenanigans. I highly recommend this episode for anyone who watched and enjoyed Nickelodeon during the 1990s.  As you'll hear at the end of the episode, Henry is on most social media as @90sNickStar  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inside-animation/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inside-animation/support

Season 2 Episode 1 - Tawd B Dorenfeld and Tink Tank Animate

In the Season 1 Finale, I visit Canada (well, virtually anyway) and chat with Medhat Hanbali, a composer who works on the popular Canadian stop-motion animation series Movement Deluxe. We talk about the differences between composing for a film versus a series and how there's much more pressure in the latter. Also, how writing songs in a series is a bit backwards and as usual, incredible advice including why you should study film making if you want to be a composer. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inside-animation/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inside-animation/support
