As you can tell from this flyer at the Nickelodeon Animation Studios, we’re constantly on the prowl for new entries into this season of Oh Yeah! Cartoons, even though, as you can see from the column on the right, we’ve starting a new short virtually every week.
Speaking of… we noticed some interesting Oh Yeah!-related posts at Animation Nation:
1. The number one rule for Frederator is this:
Frederator LOVES characters more than plot. They want someone they can fall in love with and really root for. So if you dont have a character driven show, they won’t be interested.
Also, Frederator has a real ‘hands off’ approach too making cartoons. They let their creators do what they want (for the most part), so you need to be very familiar with production.
2. (notice the great, simple advice from Vincent Waller, one of our distinquished and greatly talented Oh Yeah! alumni):
If they have ready walls, Pin them up, and pitch them…The board should be visually clear without you having to explain. Do sound effects, and the Dial. and keep it moving.

Yikes! The “Man” is watching my posts!
I guess a stack of photocopies really IS OK then?

The web is everywhere.
Stack o’ drawings OK. (Vincent knows the drill. Your three-to-a-page sketches will be great.) Can’t wait.

*is so excited to see Kyle’s name on a super-cool official-type poster, makes happy noises*
I would like to be on a super cool poster too. Too bad I’m the planet’s worst artist…*kicks pebble*
