Some of the leading creative minds behind the scenes, behind the mic, and behind the designs of favorite animated characters and universes discuss the basics of breaking into the ever-changing animation ecosystem. A highly animated conversation features expert panelists Dan Povenmire (co-creator of Phineas and Ferb), Bryan O'Connell (Henson Studios), Ashleigh Crystal Hairston (voice actor and showrunner, The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish), Emily Brundige (founder of Lil' Toughie Studios and creator of Strawberry Vampire), and Chelsea Blankenbaker (Flying Bark Productions). A one-of-a-kind, character voice–led Q&A follows, with guest voices reading audience questions, including voice actors Scott Grimes (American Dad!), Isaac Robinson-Smith (X-Men '97), Kaitlyn Robrock (Disney's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse), Eric Bauza (voice of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck), Brock Powell (G.O.A.T.), and more. The panel concludes with a live table read of a soon-to-be-produced pilot and the announcement of an upcoming project for animation fans.
