Shorts, past and present - is there a difference? The best most financially fruitful shorts programs all happened in the 30s and 40s.

Disney's shorts program allowed them to experiment with technique and develop their skills to the point where they could eventually create and make animated feature films and in the process push the whole medium forward. Warner Bros.' shorts program developed the greatest Directors and created the most and best cartoon characters in history. When I was a consultant for Fred Seibert at Hanna Barbera, I told him all this stuff and he decided it would be a good idea to start a shorts program of his own - to discover new talent and new characters for HB and the Cartoon Network. searching for a simple formula to shorts success It wasn't done as efficiently or logically as the old shorts programs of the 30s, and none of the modern shorts programs have been as successful as the classic ones that inspired them.

April 2009. I think Harvey Eisenberg is a top-notch cartoonist and I collect his stuff wherever I can find it. He's one of my favorites. He's a conservative cartoonist: He doesn't draw wild extreme poses like Rod Scribner. His comic panel layouts aren't as imaginative as Milt Gross'. He does have style, but it's not overly self-conscious or dominating like say - later Chuck Jones cartoons.

What does he have instead? He has tons of skill. His layouts are perfectly clear. Eisenberg has all his principles down. He is able to combine his own natural style with other styles - in this case with Ed Benedict's. This is the kind of cartoonist you would love to have doing layouts on your cartoons.
