Producing Animation, April 2001In April Animation World Network will kick off Catherine Winder and Zahra Dowlatabadi's new book Producing Animation with a special indepth look at how animation is produced. From feature films to television from Europe to the U.S. we will detail how schedules and budgets are put together. Sylvia Edwards will compare traditional animation television show schedules and budgets to CGI TV series, a rapidly growing trend. Feature film producer Steve Walsh will take us inside putting together a European feature film, while Evan Backus will outline the recent production timelines of several large U.S. releases. Jacquie Kubin will detail the schedules and budgets of the gaming world, and James Dalby will take us into the nuts and bolts of Webisodes. Independent animation producers and directors will also discuss how they have financed their most recent works. We are also going to look at the history of television animation distribution with television animation veteran Buzz Potamkin. Plus, Sony Pictures Family Entertainment's Sander Schwartz will then outline how he thinks the distribution world will shake out in the future. In other stories, we will have a profile of Marc Du Pontavice's Xilam and their latest projects like the ultra-cool looking Rapido. In regular columns, Glenn Vilppu will continue his sketching on location tips, and anime reviews and the latest from the festivals will be included as well. A full line up of events will also be featured from France's high tech Milia, to Iran's 2nd International Animation Festival Of Tehran, and then onto the long-running Brussels Cartoon and Animation Festival. We will also have a special report on Cartoon Movie 2001 which will be happening in Potsdam-Babelsberg, Germany from March 15 - 17, 2001. NATPE and MIPTV will also be profiled.
