Cartoon Digital cartoon digital 6-8 December 2016 Munich (Germany) Creating Entertainment for Connected Screens Top speakers • Market trends • Case studies • Networking www.cartoon-media.eu pitching event for animated transmedia projects cRtOn 3 29 31 May 2017 www.cartoon-media.eu PARTNERS CARTOON DIGITAL IS ORGANISED BY WITH THE SUPPORT OF IN COLLABORATION WITH CARTOON IS SPONSORED BY 3 Ilse Aigner Bavarian State Minister of Economic Affairs and Media, Energy and Technology Deputy Minister-President of Bavaria Dear Cartoon Digital Seminar Attendants, n behalf of the Bavarian Government I warmly welcome you to Cartoon Digital in Munich, Bavaria’s cosmopolitan capital. O It has been a long-standing tradition to host a cartoon program event here in Munich. Munich is just the right venue: the local television stations and producers, special service providers for VFX and animation, the renowned University of Television and Film Munich (HFF) as well as other elite universities and, last but not least, an active and innovative games industry make Munich a first class location for animation film and television productions in Germany. The State of Bavaria with its film funding program run by the FilmFernsehFonds Bayern (FFF Bayern) contributes highly towards maintaining this leading position. The FFF Bayern disburses funding totaling 33 million — 4.7 million € of this funding is specifically allocated to the technically highly demanding and staff-intensive VFX and animation services and to international co-productions. In addition, there is a program that is dedicated to the games industry in Bavaria. This program will be further extended in the following years, and other media innovations will also be funded in future. As our world is increasingly connected, Cartoon Digital this year will address how new media and new uses have transformed the way children engage in programs and brands. We will look into the strategies of animation producers, game companies, digital publishers, global broadcasters as well as VoD and SVoD platforms and how they benefit from these new opportunities. Case studies, new initiatives and hot topics like VR and AR will show a variety of new ideas for animation programs. We are particularly glad about the high caliber line-up of international speakers from Europe, the USA and Mexico. Our common goal is to create an environment in which creative ideas can arise and find their audiences. I hope you all have an interesting and successful experience in attending this seminar! 4 Marc Vandeweyer General Director of CARTOON ver the years Cartoon Digital has always tried to enlighten animation producers on the new developments in the digital world that can impact the writing, production, financing and distribution of their O animated TV series and animation films. And for this last Cartoon Master of the year, we have convened a prestigious line-up of 26 forward-thinking speakers from Europe, the USA and Mexico to explain how animation producers can benefit from providing multiple content to multiple platforms. Embracing the challenges led by the new ways kids consume programmes and expect to be entertained today will feature high on the agenda. We will look in particular at how leading broadcasters are creating new online programmes and also how animation producers are re-focusing their activities to integrate online routes to expand their brands and monetize their content better. The significant offer provided by Video, VoD and SVoD platforms in Europe, the USA and Mexico will also be a focus of this year’s edition with real case studies attached. New synergies, partnerships with publishers, game companies and creative play leaders like LEGO and Ravensburger will offer food for thought whilst Virtual reality and Augmented reality the hot topics of the year will be largely presented. We wish to thank our long-standing partners Creative Europe/MEDIA and Bayerisches Staatsministerium für Wirtschaft und Medien, Energie und Technologie here in Munich for their support to animation professionals. We wish participants a great event where we hope you will acquire new skills, enlarge your networking base and fine-tune your digital projects. 5 INFORMATION Eurostars Grand Central Vi Vadi Hotel Alter Hof Paulaner Im Tal 6 THE VENUE ORGANISATION COMMITTEE Eurostars Grand Central **** Arnulfstr. 35 CARTOON 80636 Munich Marc Vandeweyer Yolanda Alonso T (49) (89) 516 57 40 Joëlle Kesenne Julie Liamin Hélène Mambourg Stéphanie Siegels Fouzia Arrouj Elodie Wattiaux Av.

    Harrison Hawks Science Fair Project Listing http://harrisonhawks.webs.com/ 1. aa ANIMAL BEHAVIOR: Do humming birds prefer clear food or colored food? Put up two of the same exact type feeder so the only change is color of food and determine which one they eat/prefer. Additionally- it can be determined what time of day they prefer to feed based upon this data. Six identical 100 ml feeders were filled with a 1:2 sugar to water ratio. Five common flower colors were chosen; red, yellow, green, blue, and purple; clear was used as a control. The feeders were put out on a custom-made feeder bar for four 10-14 day long trials. The nectar remaining in the feeder was measured to determine the nectar consumed over each trial. Then, the feeders were refilled, assigned new random positions, and hung back on the feeder bar for the next trial. (YOU COULD ALSO/INSTEAD TEST IF THE SWEETNESS AFFECTS RESULTS BY ADJUSTING THE RATIO OF WATER:SUGAR) PRINT NAME:__JUSTIN SIMMS_________ 2. aa ARCHEOLOGY: Some fossils are made by mere imprints. How is it that scientists recognize them and are able to identify them? Research fossils and how to make quick print experimental fossils at home. Then choose a variety of common items to make imprint fossils with. Use only a portion of each of the items (since only a part of the animal or plant would be in an imprint fossil). Choose 20 people and poll them to see how many were able to correctly identify the original items from the various fossil imprints.

  • Cartoons & Counterculture
    Cartoons & Counterculture Azure Star Glover Introduction Entertainment media is one of the United States’ most lucrative and influential exports, and Hollywood, in Los Angeles County, California, has historically been the locus of such media’s production. While much study has been done on the subject of film and the connection between Hollywood and Los Angeles as a whole, there exists less scholarship on the topic of animated Hollywood productions, even less on the topic of changing rhetoric in animated features, and a dearth of information regarding the rise and influence of independent, so-called “indie” animation. This paper aims to synthesize scholarship on and close reading of the rhetoric of early Disney animated films such as Snow White and more modern cartoon television series such as The Simpsons with that of recently popular independently-created cartoon features such as “Narwhals,” with the goal of tracing the evolution of the rhetoric of cartoons created and produced in Hollywood and their corresponding reflection of Los Angeles culture. Hollywood and Animation In a 2012 report commissioned by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, The Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation acknowledged that “[f]or many people, the words Los Angeles and Hollywood are synonymous with entertainment” (“The Entertainment Industry” 1), and with good reason: Los Angeles’s year-round fair weather first attracted live-action filmmakers in the early 1900s, and filming-friendly Hollywood slowly grew into a Mecca of entertainment media production. In 2011, the entertainment industry accounted for “nearly 5% of the 3.3 million private sector wage and salary professionals and other independent contract workers,” generating over $120 billion in annual revenue (8.4% of Los Angeles County’s 2011 estimated annual Gross County Product), making this “one of the largest industries in the country” (“The 76 Azure Star Glover Entertainment Industry” 2).

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.

  • 283123939-Rocket-Dog-Pitch
    Like most people, as a kid Rocket Dog is a turbo- you probably wished for a charged animated series of sympathetic pet whose eleven-minute cartoons fiery rocket-butt gave her bounding squarely towards the power to fly. Good every seven-to eleven-year- thing for you your wish old who loves a good laugh never came true. (and to anyone who’s subversive enough to enjoy the mayhem caused by a certifiably insane canine). Bob is our human hero. A 12-year-old kid, he’s got those qualities you see in a lot of boys his age. He’s competitive, a bit gullible, believes he’s a natural leader (yet works himself to death to fit in), gets nervous around pretty girls, and is able to recognize godawful ideas only in hindsight. Bob would be well-satisfied to be seen as a natural leader but NO ONE with a shred of common sense will follow him. Rocket Dog follows him everywhere. Not that that’s a good thing. It’s those everyday things Bob wants—popularity, the like of a cute girl, racing bike—that are the drivers of our stories. In the long history of dogs, if ever there were a dependable, focused, proud, trustworthy, steadfast companion, it sure as heck isn’t Rocket Dog. (Maybe you’re thinking of her idol, screen star Bonnie?) Oh, sure, Rocket Dog is loyal to Bob—loyal to a neurotic, psychoballistic fault. It’s her over- zealous, frenzied, tongue-wagging determination to help get Bob what he wants that transforms his customary, dime-a-dozen days into epic, one-of-a-kind disasters.
