"MAKIN’ TOONS by Allan Neuwirth is an extremely readable survey of the animation scene, with chapters on the creation of just about every recent animated phenomenon you can think of from TV and the movies, including salutes to producers, composers, and voice talents."---CREATIVITY "Allan Neuwirth’s comprehensive, fun-to-read look at the ins and outs of today’s animation scene is a must for anyone interested in this fascinating, fast-evolving business and art form. From Roger Rabbit, The Little Mermaid and Toy Story, to The Simpsons, Rugrats and SpongeBob SquarePants, Neuwirth’s book offers a rare insider's look at the talented people and projects that have shaped the toon landscape over the past two decades. The book features informative interviews with the creators, screenwriters, story artists, painters, directors, producers, voice-over artists and musicians behind some of the most memorable animated films and TV projects of recent years. In addition to being a great resource, it’s a blast to read for anyone who has ever enjoyed an animated show or movie (and that is almost everybody!)." —ANIMATION MAGAZINE "A perceptive and entertaining work"—ANIMATION WORLD MAGAZINE "Cartoons have been experiencing a reinvigorating in America for the past 15 years.
