24 Hour Toons

Disney Feature animation artists Joe Pitt and Alex Hirsch have started an animation blog project, 24 Hour Toons. Every other week, on Fridays at midnight, they put up a theme and challenge their colleagues to make a animated film about it within the course of 24 hours. They’ve only had a couple rounds so far but the results are intriguing and fun - for example:

    Thanks Matt so much and thanks to all of you “Brewers” for your interest and support. And a BIG thanks to Jerry for giving us great recognition and support as well! I can’t wait for next weekend to make another film and greatly look forward to seeing all the new film submissions. Seeing all the new films on Sunday morning is like opening the best Christmas gifts ever. It wouldn’t be what it is and will be without all of your creativity and support, so THANKS!

    Cool! Some friends and I from the Vancouver animation industry had the same idea recently, but instead of 24 hours, we took about 3. Yay cartoons!

  • COMMENT OF THE MOMENT

    "I remember when Ward and the guys would practice at lunch hour. And yes, I mean in the Animation Building where their sounds filled the hallways. Boy, you really felt you worked at a cartoon studio back in those days. Damn! I miss the days when the animation business used to be fun."
