The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Craig McCracken
- Well, for one thing, the executives in charge at Cartoon Network are cartoon fans. I mean, these are people who grew up loving animation and loving cartoons, and the only difference between them and me is they don’t know how to draw.
- The storyboard artists job is to plan out shot for shot the whole show, write all the dialog, and decide the mood, action, jokes, pacing, etc of every scene.
- The shows are either 11 or 22 minutes and they move pretty quickly, and that’s part of the charm of them – so it was just trying to keep that in mind and keep the energy of the story moving, even though we were dealing with a longer format.
- I’m hoping that word-of-mouth on the film – people seeing it and liking it – that that will drive more people to the theaters, because I haven’t seen the billboards or the posters or anything.
- It really just gives you a sense of when you need to have dialogue and when you don’t, and if your pictures are telling the story, you don’t need to have all this talking.
- But to me what seems to be missing in a lot of portfolios is Cartooning.
- I’m a geeky toy collector, and to have toys of your own characters is unbelievably cool.
- Anything you see on the screen was at one point approved by me.
- Im always thinking about what I might want to do next, but theres still things I want to do with Powerpuff – so I can keep going with this one for awhile.
- Basicly what I had to do was do a 7 minute board and pitch it to a room of big wigs from the network and based on that they determined if I would get a short or not.
