Stuff that happened this week:
- WBA presented a “Economics of Animation” seminar for all producers — with a rundown of how the kids’ animation business works. Andy shared WBA’s production expense and revenue pie charts, including tips on how to read the numbers on a TV ratings chart. Very interesting and valuable information.
- We found out that Chris Aguirre, an Art Director who works at WBA, is a close friend of Blue Demon!!! (and he’s never seen him without his mask!) Wouldn’t it be cool if we could have Blue Demon on an episode of ML?
- We’ve been doing ML press interviews for various magazines.
- We’ve heard that the Mucha Lucha toys are now out there in Toys R Us stores. This weekend – we’ll have to go look for our nearest store…
- There’s a wacky commercial/promo on Cartoon Network people have told us about which we’re still trying to catch. In the promo, a real live kid and dog are dressed up as Rikochet and Masked Dog. We’d known about this promo for a while now because Liz had been making the costumes… but we still haven’t seen it!!! Curiosity is driving us crazy… (ML premieres on Cartoon Network next weekend )
- Last but not least, Fwak! has a new kids’ project in development with WB Animation - we had our first official brainstorm meeting today. This is going to be lots of fun. Our lips are sealed…
