Cartoon Network Creates The Cartoonstitute
Artist-Led Division To Create Huge Volume of Animated Content
ATLANTA, April 3, 2008 -- Continuing its long-standing
tradition of developing innovative and original animated content, Cartoon
Network announced today the creation of The Cartoonstitute, a new
initiative designed to dramatically increase the animation development
slate for the network. Produced primarily by Cartoon Network Studios, The
Cartoonstitute will endeavor to create up to 150 pieces of programming over
a period of 20 months.
A veritable think tank for animators, the program will be artist-led
and spearheaded by animation veterans Craig McCracken (The Powerpuff Girls,
Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends) and Rob Renzetti (My Life as a Teenage
Robot, Dexter's Laboratory), who will create an in-house, all-star team of
artists, directors, storyboarders and writers generating content suitable
for distribution across a number of platforms. McCracken will serve as
executive producer and Renzetti as supervising producer reporting to Rob
Sorcher.
"The Cartoonstitute will create an unprecedented swift development
track for animated pilots," said Rob Sorcher, Chief Content Officer for
Cartoon Network. "This program is unique in that it is run by artists
themselves who understand what it takes to create the right environment for
success. The Cartoonstitute continues the tradition of Cartoon Network
being the best place for ground-breaking animation and will create a new
generation of show runners in addition to fantastic new animated content
for Cartoon Network."
