Headline: An Animator’s Grand Salute to Woody Woodpecker! Guess Who!
On July 11, StoryMakers Studio brings several of the biggest names in the cartoon world to the Grauman’s Chinese Theatres Complex in Hollywood:
celebrated author, film critic and cartoon buff Leonard Maltin,
six-time Emmy® Award winning cartoon producer Phil Roman,
and voice actors June Foray (“Woody Woodpecker,” “Rocky and Bullwinkle,” Disney’s “Mulan”),
Maurice LaMarche (“Futurama, “Animaniacs,” “Pinky and the Brain”) and
Billy West (“The New Woody Woodpecker Show,” “Ren & Stimpy,” “Futurama”).
“We wouldn’t be surprised if these voice artists spent part of the evening talking as the characters they’re so well known for,” said Ronn Campbell, StoryMakers Studio’s executive producer. “Here’s the best thing. You can enjoy this event whether you’re in Los Angeles or NOT,” Campbell adds. “In fact, we already have people from Europe and Asia reserving their viewing passes at http://www.StoryMakersStudio.com/woodywoodpecker” In addition, everyone who signs up to watch the Woody Woodpecker event has a choice of eBooks that are of interest to anyone who currently works in animation; wants to work in animation; or is simply an animation fan. “When the word got out that we were doing this event, animation professionals and fans from all over the world started contacting us, asking for a way they could enjoy our Woody Woodpecker event,” said series host and confessed cartoon fan Gordon Meyer. “We’re delighted that we can make this available to them.” Details of the event including how cartoon fans can enjoy StoryMakers Studio’s Salute to Woody Woodpecker and Walter Lantz, can be found at:
