Producing Results, January 1998

This issue aims to help our readers see their animated projects pitched, made, finished and distributed. It is a long, rough road indeed. Julie Pesusich will discuss how she and her partners began Liquid Light Studios while Jorge Ramirez-Suarez, who is currently working with Liquid Light on the Mexican Film Institute's first CGI production, will discuss his path to growing success. Nelvana's co-CEO Michael Hirsch will explain the workings of international co-productions while Dominic Schreiber will interview the pros to find out how they work the large animation markets. Attorney Charles Kramer will give us insight into the mysterious rules and regulations of developing projects based on existing properties. The history of distribution outlets will be explained by Karl Cohen and the California Summer School for the Arts will be profiled when John Roslyn interviews Christine Panushka.

Other articles will detail a writing for visual effects seminar, and Candy Kugel will take us back in time as she chronicles her directing experience in "The Creation of an Icon: MTV."

Our Hidden Treasures column will profile Ton Crone's Nederlands Instituut voor Animatiefilm and The Student Corner will interview a number of prestigious graduates and professors who will discuss the virtues of making either an experimental or narrative senior thesis film. Event reviews will include the Cartoombria International Film Festival by Chiara Magri and John Parazette-Tillar will review The Digital Video Conference and Exposition which was held in Burbank, California.

This issue will also include a very special feature. Revered Disney greats, Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston will discuss Pierre Lambert's book Pinocchio.
