Filmmaking and media are
collaborative arts.
The best work only comes from
the excellence of our colleagues.
This book is dedicated to

the hundreds –thousands–
who've honored us with
their talents and hard work.
You're too numerous
to mention individually but
too important not to
mention at all.
Thank you, sincerely.

There would be no Frederator
without the creators who bring their wonderful
ideas to us. But, while all the colleagues
who have worked at Frederator have made the
past 20 years a joy, four of them have been
indispensable.
Eric Homan, Kevin Kolde, Carrie Miller, and

Fred Pustay set the various stages that have will
make the next 20 years just as great.
There some folks on the business side who've

inspired us, but more importantly, actually made
our existence in the animation and media busi-
ness possible. There's no way to express enough
thanks to Tom Freston, Alan Goodman, Albie
Hecht, Judy McGrath, Bob Pittman, the late
Buzz Potamkin, Scott Sassa, and Herb Scannell.
Michael Hirsh was there for Frederator

when we needed him. Our WOW! creation
is a great model for the future of animation
and cartoons.
I can't let this moment go by without honor-

ing the most important support someone can
get when venturing upon a nutso, two decade,
entrepreneurial venture (aren't they all?). My
wife and life partner Robin Sloane Seibert and
sons Joseph and Jack give me the guiding lights
to get through every day. And, not for nothing,
Robin came up with my nickname that became
our company.

8 FREDERATOR LOVES YOU

Introduction
.......................................................
Let me rant for a minute. I think the last twenty

years has proved that there’s no other company
like Frederator. Really, we’re special. Arrogant?
Sure.
Of course, being remarkable is all about you.
"Frederator loves you" has been more than just

a slogan around here. It's been a battle cry that
expresses exactly why I started the company.
"You." First and foremost it's our audiences,

whether they're the kids that watched our stuff
on Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, or the
still-kids who grew up and watch us on Cartoon
Hangover, Get in the Robot or Netflix.
"You." All the folks that work in and around

Frederator across the globe, making cartoons
and videos and channels, figuring out the best way
to show them off to people.
And "you." The world class creators –mostly

first timers– we've been lucky enough to have
in our corner.
I think it's fair to say that without "you" there

wouldn't be an "us." From my perspective we're
all one big bunch, loving the same things,
everyone playing their own roles. I don't think
anyone at Frederator would have it any other way.
Twenty years seems like both a long time and

yet, just the beginning. I can't imagine it ending,
it’s just too much fun making the world smile.
Frederator loves you all, Fred Seibert

Castlevania
................................................
Executive producer & showrunner: Kevin Kolde
Kevin Kolde is the visionary Frederator who

over a decade ago recognized the rich story
material in video games that had been ignored
by filmmakers.
Once the dramatic rights for Castlevania were

secured he recruited master storytellers Warren
Ellis and the artists at Powerhouse Animation
and created a global masterpiece for Netflix.

Castlevania
................................................
"It is with a somewhat heavy heart that I

report Netflix’s Castlevania is not a show
for the fans. Instead, it is a show for
absolutely everyone."
–Den of Geek! Matthew Byrd Jul 7, 2017
"The Perfect Show For Fans And

First Timers Alike!
"Castlevania for Netflix is probably one of
the best anime in recent years and I cannot
recommend it enough. It’s dark, it’s epic, it’s
fun, and even a tad bit scary at times.
"… It’s already considered the most
bingeable show on the streaming service."
–Now Loading, July 2017
"Castlevania not only brings the fan-favorite

characters of the long-running Konami
series to life, it fleshes them out by embroil-
ing them in a conflict over belief, blood, and
magic, all set in 15th century Wallachia."
–Collider, Dave Trumbore July 8, 2017
"...the series’ creators have gone above and

beyond to wring a resonant story from a
game..."
–AV Club, Matt Gerardi July 10, 2017

The richly orchestral scoring by Trevor Morris

for Castlevania is one of the series highlights.
In addition to streaming and CDs its cen-
terpiece is the sumptuous double LP vinyl
release. Along with the Viz DVD collectors
across the world have all the reasons to rejoice.
“…this is pure atmospheric delight... a score

that’s both barbed wire and an inspiring raised
flag, both scary and romantic and, above all,
simply great great fun.”

Two Emmy Awards and

"Nobody really expected a cartoon featuring

post-apocalyptic candy kingdoms and
Korean-speaking unicorns to become a
children’s-television success story. Nor
did anybody expect that same show to be
a success story with just about every other
demographic out there, either."
–Nolan Feeney, Time, March 29, 2013
"No matter how silly it gets ... Adventure

Time is teeming with thoughtful nuances,
bold innuendo and bonafide genre-based
storytelling. The blend of advanced subtext,
bafflingly surreal tangents and nonsensical
asides makes it hard to pin down the show’s
precise appeal — but you can’t dispute the
outlandish comic timing, lovable characters
and insanely catchy songs, all of which help
explain the devoted fan base."
–Eric Kohn, IndieWire 2013
"Adventure Time is one of the most philosoph-

ically risky and, often, emotionally affecting
shows on TV. It’s beautiful and funny and
stupid and smart, in about equal parts, as well as
willing to explore uneasy existential questions,
like what it means to go on when the story
you’re in has ended.
–Emily Nussbaum, The New Yorker 2014

Adventure Time
..............................................
Totally math!
Nothing would ever be the same. In pop music

it was Elvis, The Beatles, Nirvana. In cartoons
Mickey Mouse, Looney Tunes, Ren & Stimpy.
And Adventure Time.
At Frederator we've often said that we're

not all that good at following trends. Since
we're completely focused on finding original
voices in cartoon, the result is that we often
anticipate them.
Once the first "Adventure Time" short was

finished we all knew we had something special.
Pendleton Ward's individual synthesis of his

love of video games, filmmaking and web
comics came through loud and clear and we
couldn't wait to get started on a series. Every-
one who saw the cartoon agreed, but it took five
long years before we could convince Cartoon
Network to partner with us to put the show in
production.
Pen's unique approach to his characters, writing,

and animation design was obvious even in his
storyboard pitch for the original short cartoon.

We were surprised –and extremely pleased–

when we saw that the artistic choice that Pen
made for the first AT short's titles in 2006. They
became the inspiration for every title card in the
series for the next nine seasons.

unlimited imagination.

Adventure Time
................................................
Mathematical!
It's possible that Adventure Time was the

first show that got on television because of the
overwhelming internet fandom.
Pen's original film was part of our

Nickelodeon series incubator Random!
Cartoons. Long before it aired its reputation
had spread in the Hollywood animation
community and it was nominated for "Best
Short" at the 2007 Annie Awards. It was
early days in streaming video –most of the
world didn't even know what it was– so Nick
gave us permission to post it online to spread
the word. Soon after their parent company
started suing YouTube and the video got a take
down. And the next day (!) it got bootlegged
back and started getting millions of views.
They didn't convince Nickelodeon, but Cartoon
Network couldn't resist.
Which begat...
There was fan art for all of our successful

shows, but it took a 1G internet fan like Pen to
give us a real clue as to how important those
admirers would be to our futures. By the time
the series hit CN we already had hundreds of
submissions.

What time is it?!
Four years after the first short was completed,

the Adventure Time series goes into production
at Cartoon Network. ("... with Finn and Jake"
was a brief legal necessity before the barristers
saw the light).

Let's rock and roll!
Looking around for random artwork at our

series productions always uncovers little won-
ders. "How to Draw Adventure Time!" was the
handbook for the production artists created
by lead designer Phil Rynda. Pen's story notes
for 'City of Thieves' (original title: 'Way of the
Finn') gives us some insight on what the teams
needed to make a cartoon sequence in this sui
generis animated film.

Cartoon Network Brands Train in Taiwan
Cartoon Network has teamed up with Taiwan

High Speed Rail Corporation to launch the
Cartoon Express, a new passenger experience
on the island’s train network.
Cartoon Network mascots introduced

travellers to the train’s new features, while
announcements were made using the voice
of Jake the dog from Adventure Time.
The branded train will run along the west

coast of Taiwan, from Taipei to the southern
city of Kaohsiung. It is estimated that several
hundred thousand passengers will board the
Cartoon Express during the campaign period.

Bravest Warriors
................................................
Developed by
Breehn Burns, Will McRobb & Chris Viscardi
Best Web Show, Shorty Awards 2013.
"[Bravest Warriors] is one of the best things,

animated or live action, currently going in the
variable, many portaled medium I will call
television: full of beauty and mystery and
goofball weirdness, peopled (if that's the
word) with small creatures like Impossibear,
Jelly Kid and Catbug, a dimension-traveling
blue cat with ladybug wings and the voice of a
child (an actual child, Sam Lavagnino); subject
to fits of unpredictable metaphor and simile
('It's like trying to use the president's mouth to
make out with God's middle name'); and a host
of strange adventures, not the least strange of
which are set within the spiritual kingdom of love."
–Robert Lloyd, Los Angeles Times 2014
Frederator Postcard Series 7.19 2008-2009


Bravest Warriors
................................................
Developed by
Pen Ward returned to the Random! Cartoons pitch

room with "Bravest Warriors," his characteristi-
cally skewed take on four wonderful teenager-ish
space adventurers left to try and not mess up the
galaxy as much as possible.
Frederator produced the short, then Adventure Time

changed the world, and by the time we could think
about a BW series, Pen was completely ensconced
in AT at CN. He suggested his friend Breehn Burns
to develop a full series. We heartily agreed, and the
team of Will McRobb & Chris Viscardi joined up.
And another hit show is born.


Bravest Warriors

One of the great benefits for a production on

YouTube is the oceans of viewership data that's
available at the click of a mouse. In traditional
TV we're lucky to even get basic ratings, and at
Netflix and Amazon you get zip.
On September 18, 2013, our intrepid research

team ran the numbers on the first season of
Bravest and the results were stunning:
13,537,384 unique visitors. That's over 13
million individuals across the world who
watched our show. And thanks to Elvis we
had a special way of showing our thanks.

partner. They'd been the Adventure Time comics
publisher and understood modern comics like
almost no one else.
36 issues of Bravest Warriors comics were

published, enriched by the creative teams that
editor Shannon Watters brought to the party.
Like Joey Comeau, Ryan Pequin, Mike Holmes,
Tyson Hesse, Kate Leth... the list goes on and
on and on. And if we could print all the cover
variants they would fill their own volume.

The improbable breakout character from

Bravest Warriors wasn't part of Pen Ward's
original short in 2006, springing from the
expansive imagination of showrunner
Breehn Burns.
His popularity undeniable, Catbug then

became the marquee series of hit titles from
our Frederator Books ebook publishing
company in 2013, and a leading light in
the BW comics series from Boom! Studios.

How many series last even two seasons? How

about 20?! Butch Hartman is one of the rare
talents who can pull it off.
"The Fairy Godparents" (the original title) was

the last cartoon made for the first season of Oh
Yeah! Cartoons and became our second series
on Nickelodeon. Short sighted business consid-
erations initially put the show's future in doubt,
but the stellar ratings powered it to be one of the
longest lived productions in animation history.

Oh Yeah!'s success with the original OddParents

short spun off 10 7-minute short cartoons before
the full series pick up in 2001. Which has lasted
for almost 20 years.

Once a short has a series order, the hand

crafted care gets a working out when dozens
of other artists and writers get involved. Bob
Boyle, FOPs art director and producer, put
together a style guide to explain the "how to"
of Butch's drawing style. We, in turn, thought
some pages would make fun limited edition
postcards for the Friends of Frederator.

"Icky Vicky," Timmy's evil babysitter, was

one of the first stars in the FOP universe
and exhibited all the distinctive touches of
Butch's design styling.
The Fairly OddParents creator Butch Hartman can

pitch a comedy storyboard better than almost
anyone in the cartoon business.

................................................
From the dawn of cartoons almost 100 years

ago, title cards were a given. They got more cre-
ative throughout the theatrical years, but by the
1980s had somehow disappeared completely.
That made us sad.
Therefore, one of the only "givens" in all of our

Frederator productions has been to revive the
tradition. All of the creators take that comedy
institution seriously, and Butch Hartman made
sure all of his were splendid.

"The World's Original Cartoon Podcast"
NEW YORK, Nov. 2,2005 /PRNewswire/ --

Frederator Studios founder Fred Seibert launch-
es Channel Frederator, the world's first cartoon
video podcast created expressly for distribution
of world-class content on portable video devices
such as the Apple iPod and the Sony PlayStation
Portable (PSP). Released weekly, the episodes
will contain several short form original and
vintage cartoons submitted by producers from
around the world, packaged into 10 to 15 minute
episodes by the Channel Frederator program-
ming team.
Channel Frederator debuts as the #1 podcast in

the iTunes' Arts and Entertainment directory.
.....
In 2005 we were inspired by Channel101.com to
try and build an online video presence. Eric
Homan, Melissa Wolfe, Mike Glenn and Carrie
Miller would program it. Former Frederator intern
and future Tumblr founder, 19 year old David Karp
was perfect to build it out. After a couple of hours
of argument as to whether the "old school" archi-
tecture or portable devices were the way to go,
he went off with our logo and a few shorts from
our friends. David named, designed, wrote, edited
and engineered "Channel Frederator: The World's
Original Cartoon Podcast." He added a tag line
–"Frederator loves you"– and we posted to iTunes.
Coinciding with the announcement of a video
enabled iPod (wow!) we had 1 million downloads
in the first 30 days.
The future of Frederator was in gear.

Channel Frederator Awards
................................................
Towards the end of the first full year that

Channel Frederator was live it occurred to us
that any TV channel worth anything had an
awards show. We might have been on the air
15 minutes a week, but we were a TV channel,
dammit!
Well, we wanted it to be a happy party

celebrating the creative cartoon industry as
much as a boring awards show. We'd give
out the awards while the festivities continued,
taping the handover of the "Freddie" to the
lucky winners and run the video on the channel.
All hands were on deck. Carrie Miller, David
Karp and Fred Seibert flew to LA from the New
York office. Eric Homan, Kevin Kolde and
Melissa Wolfe at our Burbank office set things
up at CineSpace/LA.
Would anyone show up?
Did they ever! The lines were out the door with
a several hour wait, coming from all over, even
flying in from Europe, Australia, and the East
Coast, our viewing doubled. We were a hit!

Channel Frederator Network
................................................
YouTube
Frederator's mission has always been about the

support of talent, and Channel Frederator's
podcast was designed to showcase a greater
array of filmmakers than our production studio
alone could support. Fred's startup, Next
New Networks, invented the multi-channel
network to support creator's channels, and in
2013 Frederator started our network to be hyper
focused on only cartoons and animation
culture adjacent (artists, comic books, video
games) channels. Our team felt that helping
animators grow their channels was the best path
to sustained creative autonomy.
By 2014 –already at 500 channels and 45

million monthly views across the world–
we punned "The Declaration of Cartoon
Independents."

In 2016, The Channel Frederator Network had

grown steadily to over 500 monthly views and
2500 channels. We were particularly proud
of giving animators the tools and skills they
needed to become as large as their ambitions
allowed.
Our confidence in the network's prolonged

growth over the first two years let us shout out
as the world's largest animation network.
And finally, in 2017 we reached the milestone

of 1 billion monthly views ("1 billion of any-
thing is good!" says Fred) and 10 billion views
in throughout the year. By the middle of 2018
each month was almost at 3 billion.

Random! Cartoons
..............................................
Annie Award Nominee, "Adventure Time,"

2007.
Our third big idea cartoon incubator started life

as the fourth season of Oh Yeah! Cartoons, but
the Nickelodeon lawyers needed a new name
for some reason, and a smart Nick executive
suggested Random! The 39 shorts introduced
us to a lot of the new talent Frederator works
with to this day, and led to three hit series: Eric
Robles' Fanboy and Chum Chum, and Pendle-
ton Ward's Adventure Time and Bravest War-
riors.

Random! Cartoons
................................................
New talent, new technology, cartoons were

changing in the 21st century.
Five years after Oh Yeah! Cartoons, 10 after

What A Cartoon!, we started up on our third
big idea animation incubator.
One of the biggest changes was the inclusion

of more women and POC as creators than ever
before. They were the harbinger of a new
golden age of animation.

Random! Cartoons
................................................
By 2005, cartoons had already entered a

new era, with talented creators from across
the world no longer trying to recreate the
cartoons of their youth, and bringing in
artistic influences from different cultures
and the explosion of video games.
Texan Pendleton Ward was one month out of

CalArts when he pitched Frederator "Adven-
ture Time" and "Bravest Warriors" for Random!
Both, of course, have gone on to become inno-
vative hit series produced by Frederator Studios.
Korean native Niki Yang came to the United

States to work in cartoons like Family Guy and
Gravity Falls. And not for nothing, she's the
voice of Pen Ward's Adventure Time characters
Lady Rainicorn and BMO.

G. Brian Reynolds and Russ Brown started

Perennial Pictures in Indianapolis in 1979,
producing animated website logos, television
commercials, television specials and limited
series. "Handycat" is their second short for
Fred Seibert, after "O Ratz" at What A Cartoon!
Adam Muto is an Emmy award winning

artist/writer/director, originally hailing from
Seattle, Washington. At the same time he was
creating "Samsquatch," his first professional
short, Adam was Pen Ward's sole companion
in making the original "Adventure Time" short.
He went on to be the AT series creative director
and, from 2015, the showrunner and
executive producer.

Bee and PuppyCat
................................................
Frederator has been trying to bring out

cartoons for women –teens and young adults–
for our entire existence, but were stymied by
the conventional wisdom that "teenage girls
don't watch cartoons." We countered the net-
works with "of course, most of those cartoons
were created by men," but alas, to no avail.
Finally, with our own channel, Cartoon Hang-

over, we could literally put our money where
our mouth was and created several shorts creat-
ed by women with something to say. The huge
success of "Rocket Dog," "Blackford Manor,"
"Dr. Lollypop," "Welcome to Doozy," and "The
Summoning" bolstered our confidence that we
weren't nuts.
But none more so than Natasha Allegri's "Bee

and PuppyCat."
"Bee and PuppyCat" was so big –that is, longer

than the six minutes to which we usually limited
our cartoons– that we didn't want to miss one
frame. Our very first short as a two parter.

original PuppyCat pitch.

Bee and PuppyCat
..............................................
Success! The "Bee and PuppyCat" shorts had

millions of fans across the world. Now what?
Frederator was a bootstrapped company and

the well had run dry. Our most loyal partners
–the networks and major studios– weren't
interested in a cartoon with a twenty some-
thing young woman in the lead with her –"is
it a dog? a cat?"– sidekick that communicated
in some electronic language. But, our audience
was in love more than riveted and they wanted
more.
Our solution for more PuppyCat? Kickstarter!

Where audiences make the decisions, not the
media gatekeepers.
"I will follow this series to the end of the earth.

when everything else is gone. I will be there. the
earth will decay one day yet my love for these
goofballs will stay strong."
"I love the show so much, I rewatch it whenever

I feel stressed. I really want a second season!"
"The best gift ever on the internet, can't wait

for more."
The results? Five years after the October 2013

campaign, Bee and PuppyCat is still the most
back animation Kickstarter in history.
18,000 fans honored the film with almost

$1,000,000 to see more adventure and foibles
of Bee and her crew.

All 18,000 Bee and PuppyCat fans who

contributed to the Kickstarter donated for the
love of Bee. But the special "rewards" sure
helped a number of them make the decision.
From $15 (a "digital club member") up to
$10,000 (really) folks got an early taste of
what the wider world would eventually

Too Cool! Cartoons
................................................
Short cartoons have been the lifeblood of

animation for almost 100 years, and the talent
that creates them have been Frederator’s vital
spark for over two decades.
The 5th set of Frederator shorts started in 2012

for our new Cartoon Hangover channel, with
the 10 cartoons getting more than 20 million
views so far.
Part of YouTube's "Original Channel Initiative"

we worked with 10 new creators far flung from
Australia to the UK and Sweden. At least five
are being developed further –our largest group
to date– with Bee and PuppyCat already on its
second series.
Not for nothing, this round of films had our

largest –and overdue!– percentage of women
creators.

Too Cool! Cartoons
................................................
The creators for Too Cool! came from across

the world –thank you, free video conferencing–
spanning Australia to Sweden, with Burbank
based Frederator Studios right in the middle.
Studio heads Eric Homan and Kevin Kolde

had some early mornings and late nights for
production confabs, but the audience's global
smiles –over 20 million views– were more than
worth the sleep loss.

line sold me, I feel like this deserves more episodes,
even if it was just for that single line.
David Dale This is actually quite deep, and they

delivered a message wrapped in unique art, and ran-
domness with a bit of gore and managed to mix a sort
of heavy - light feel to the animation as a whole. really
good job there.
Also does a good job mixing the unquestioning and
obedient attitude with one that asks "why?" and looks
for the higher road.

into detail about this piece of art will do no justice to

107 Facts
................................................
Four years ago, our programming team

adapted one of the most durable media tropes:
The List. They refashioned it beautifully in
streaming video on all our channels, subscrip-
tion and ad supported, and broke the back of
conventional wisdom about video lengths. For
some reason, in all eras of electronic media
–and none more than in the internet age– it has
always been an article of faith that young fans
have short attention spans.
From our very first episode –"107 Simpson

Facts Everyone Should Know"– though the
more than 500 to date, Frederator Digital has
kept pushing the limits and now the average
episode length is over 30 minutes. And the
majority of our viewers watch all the way
through.
Maybe more importantly, 107 Facts has

flourished across all of our programming
categories. Cartoons for sure at Channel
Frederator and Cartoon Hangover. But it's
worked just as well –or better– with video
games on The Leaderboard, live action TV
and movies on Cinematica, and lately with
anime at Get in the Robot.

Production tags
When our first show went on the air in 1998 we

realized we didn't have the required four second
production "tag" to go at the end of the episodes.
Friend of Frederator Jon Kane agreed to put
something together tout de suite. Generally
these things are forgettable, so we forgot about
it until Jon delivered. Visually, serviceable.
But the audio!
Jon's unidentified intern shouted "Frederator!"

on mike, and all of a sudden we had the most
identifiable branding in our company's history.
Once we started our own internet channels, Ar-

len Schumer's 'Fredbot' became an official logo
icon, and we started finding delightful ways to
execute. Stop motion, CGI, cut outs, you name
it, we tried to have some fun. Like a surprise in
the run out grooves of an old vinyl record, we
hope we'll give our fans a quick tasty morsel
before they move on to the next binge.

Sculpture by Nathan Sawaya
Who doesn't love Lego? Frederator's no exception,

we even built some Lego conference tables for

Completely by accident, we realized that world

famous Lego sculptor Nathan Sawaya lived and
worked around the corner from our Manhattan
digs. Brilliant! Nathan agreed to a commission of a
Lego-sculpt our world famous Fredbot.
Actually, two of them. The first was super glued

for stability and display, but the other wasn't.
Why? So that producer/directors Carrie Miller and
Daisy Edwards could deconstruct it in hundreds
of photographs and reconstruct it into a 4-second
stop motion Frederator production tag to go at
the end of our series like Adventure Time.

"Fanboy" for Random! Cartoons.
Set in a fictional convenience store in the San

Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles that Eric
grew up in it went right to series for Nickelode-
on in 2009 with 26 half hours.
No one could miss the classic "squash and

stretch" humor that Eric brought to the party
that other computer generated characters
were missing on TV.

Fanboy & Chum Chum
................................................
It's a revelation to see a creator's early sketches

of their characters. Soon enough the drawings
get "cleaned up" so that the dozens of story-

all work on the same cartoon with a semblance
of order.

................................................
YouTube & VRV
Cartoon Hangover –named by Melissa Wolfe,

logo by Jeaux Janovsky–started as a Channel
Frederator segment in the 00's, meant to flag the
more outrageous comedy cartoons. By 2012, we
launched as a discrete channel on YouTube. And
the subscription based Cartoon Hangover Select
went live/beta on Christmas 2017.
Originally the home of Pendleton Ward's Bravest

Warriors and James Kochalka's SuperF*ckers,
the channel quickly branched out. The big idea
animation incubators Too Coo! Cartoons and
GO! Cartoons spawned a group of first time
creators including a rich vein of female film-
makers including Natasha Allegri ("Bee and
PuppyCat"), Miss Kelly Martin ("Dr. Lolli-
pop"), Jiwook Kim ("Blackford Manor"),
Elyse Castro ("The Summoning"), Mel Roach
("Rocket Dog"), Alison Cowles ("Boots"),
and Kate Tsang & Jennifer Suhr ("Welcome to
Doozy").

Time out for a quick hat tip to our great friends

twinkle in their eyes, CEO Tom Pickett and
General Manager Arlen Marmel reached out
as admirers of our Cartoon Hangover original
programming successes and invited us to be
part of their vision in the future of speciality
subscription channels. We signed on immediate-
ly, and along with channels like Rooster Teeth,
Crunchyroll, and MondoMedia, our fans now
can join up and see some of our best work.

THE ONLY TWO THINGS I NEED IN
A GREAT CARTOON
It Ain't Me This is honestly better than

a lot of junk on tv.
Limey Lassen The color palette of this show

800% my aesthetic. Get out of my head!!!
Julio Acceus This is the best 5 minutes

of cartoons I ever got.
YugentheHime I enjoyed this it was

very different and had a darker theme, but it
was very happy and satisfying. Kind like seeing
happiness in somewhat dark humor.
Good job Cartoon hangover I hope it continues.
Luna the fox I like how she sounds like

she's gonna kill someone but somons [sic] a
demon to kill dirt.
BoostedAnimals I hope the hundred odd

comments here, 5k on youtube, and over
a million views are enough to convince CH
to make this a full fledged series.
I'm already an instant fan.
Bee Dude this is so promising keep up the great

work why you deserve an Oscar.

Get in the Robot
................................................
YouTube & Cartoon Hangover Select
We dropped our first YouTube experiment

–Channel Frederator– more than a decade
ago, and with literally billions of new viewers
and creators flooding the platform it behooves
programmers like us to stay ahead of the windy
curves.
The Frederator Digital team is very anime and

longed for a video channel that didn't pit fac-
tions of fandom against each other. So in the
summer of '18 they created and launched Get in
the Robot and immediately saw that hundreds
of thousands across the world –millions to
come!– wholeheartedly agreed.
"I absolutely love how much of a different feel

[GiTR] has from normal anime channels. It
takes a similar direct approach without making
a point too extreme."

My Life as a Teenage Robot
................................................
Rob Renzetti was one of our key creators at

Oh Yeah! Cartoons, with a blind commitment
for six shorts, as long as one of them was
Mina and the Count, a holdover from
Hanna-Barbera's What A Cartoon!
The sixth short was "My Neighbor was

a Teenage Robot," which spun off the
next year as its own series, the iconic
My Life as a Teenage Robot.
Rob is one of Hollywood's most talented and

reliable animation director/writers. We met
when he was on the crew of the cult hit that
started our cartoon streak at H&B, 2 Stupid
Dogs, and he became a key collaborator on
Genndy Tartakovsky's Dexter's Laboratory and
Craig McCracken's The Powerpuff Girls. After
MLaaTR he's been the story editor on My Little
Pony: Friendship is Magic and a director on
Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Family
Guy, and Gravity Falls.

................................................
Emmy Award winner, three other award

winners, and 12 nominations.
"The Sweetest show to grace the small screens!

MLAATR is cute, funny, unexpected and a real
blast to watch from start to finish."
– Glen B.Wang, IMDB.com 20 April 2005
"Jenny... [is] a super-powered robot with a su-

per-sensitive teenage heart. Her primary func-
tion is to protect the planet from certain disaster,
but, like all teenagers, she has her own ideas
about how she would like to live. Defending
the Earth has become a mundane chore, and she
would rather do more exciting things like go to
high school and be allowed to drive the family
car."
–TV.com
"My Life as a Teenage Robot is ... sophisticated

in it's humor, illustrations and story line...it's
one of those cartoons that adults see the hid-
den humor that younger audiences don't catch
- but the entire family will enjoy...this is really
good..."
– Darryl Deanon, Amazon.com July 26, 2016

................................................
Rob and his MLaaTR creative partner, Alex

Kirwan, were obsessive about every aspect of
their series, but that went double for its design
and art.
When we saw the precision of research and

skills that their entire team put into the deco
and vintage sci-fi art we had to get it out into
the fandom world. First came a hint with the
"how to draw Jenny/XJ9" postcard, and then
the Eric Homan/Renzetti/Kirwan edited
sketchbook.
There's no shock that fan art for the show

and its indelible characters continues unabated
more than a decade after the last episode was
produced.

It's safe to say that Frederator wouldn't be what

it is without animation veteran, director, pro-
ducer/writer Larry Huber. During an amazing
career he's supervised untold cartoon series and
was the supervising producer (and anchor) at
our H&B groundbreaking shorts incubator What
A Cartoon! He signed on to Oh Yeah! Cartoons
as an executive producer in 1997, where he
partnered with...
Cartoon fanatic, writer and musician Bill

Burnett was a colleague at Fred Seibert's
advertising agency in New York. He came
to Hollywood as Hanna-Barbera's marketing
creative director before being part of Oh
Yeah!'s inaugural team, composing its theme
song, and the main titles to every one of his
shorts and series.
Bill and Larry immediately joined up and came

up with their take on a "through the looking
glass" world behind a school blackboard.
Nickelodeon president Albie Hecht immediate-

ly fell in love with the concept and after a few
more shorts, series scripts were written, story-
boards drawn, and the show was on the air in
2002.

................................................
Larry and Bill like everything about classic

cartoons just like we do. So, no surprise, they
went out of their way to make the CZ title cards
very special. Artist Guy Vasilovich (a Fredera-
tor shorts creator himself) came up with a cross
between psychedelic black lighting and chalk
on a blackboard for a super graphic effect.

Artist Frank Rocco is a familiar presence in the

of Frederator. We commissioned him to do a
take on the distinctive world that could exist
behind the blackboards of ChalkZone. Rudy,
Penny and Snap all survived the journey!

Our crews are locked up at their desks for

months at a time during a production (it's
amazing how quiet a cartoon studio can be
at times). So the end of a season is as good

Oh Yeah! Cartoons
................................................
One Annie Award, one Emmy nomination,

and 12 other award nominations.
Oh Yeah! was Frederator's maiden series, the

extension of our work that revived the very
notion of "cartoons" at Hanna-Barbera. And
it led to Nickelodeon's giant hits The Fairly
OddParents, ChalkZone, and My Life as a
Teenage Robot.
99 short films, 245 half hours, and a half dozen

movies later, the 41 creators and their crews
form the core of the world class talent that has
fueled the animation business across the globe
for the last two decades.

Oh Yeah! Cartoons
................................................
Oh Yeah! Cartoons has been our biggest

talent incubator to date. 41 creators, 51
original cartoons and 99 shorts altogether.
Three fantastic series picked up (one of them
on in production for almost 20 years) and a
half dozen TV movies. Not a bad haul at all.

cartoons.
A perfect Frederator combo.

Frederator Books
................................................
Catbug
Frederator Books was a bet that in the age

of ebooks parents of young kids would
much prefer a giant virtual library over
piles and piles of books. Our talent choices
in animation would help us get a head start.
Catbug was on his way to becoming a

multi-media sensation. He had broken out
–the adorable and arresting voice of 7 year
old Sam Lavagnino certainly helped– and
was a perfect character to launch our
publishing program which would include
"read-alongs" which could only be possible
in the digital universe we were all entering.

Frederator Books
................................................
Lucy the Dinosaur
By Joey Ahlbum
Lucy first popped up from animator Joey

Ahlbum, longtime Friend of Frederator, as a
possible picture book. Later, he adapted her
as a series of animated videos on our Fredbot
kids channel, and again as a mainstay at
Frederator Books.
Even with digital drawing

tools, artists find that a
pencil might just be their
most critical piece of
technology.
Bolder Media for Boys & Girls
................................................
Producer Susan Miller (Ella Enchanted) and

Frederator got together and cooked up an
approach to preschool characters. Adapting
our big idea shorts incubators, Eric Homan
developed 30+ picture books exclusively with
animation artist/creators for Random House
Kids. Nick Jr. got their pick for a series on their
channel.
Ultimately, Random House passed on Bob

Boyle's Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! which went on
to be a hit series (go figure), but we published
another of Bob's ideas, "Hugo and the Really,
Really, Really Long String," and Eileen Bren-
nan's "Dirtball Pete." Soon, it became clear
that Bolder had "creative differences" with our
publishing partner and we went our separate
ways. But, all's well that ends well. We got two
fabulous books and continuing relationships
with Eric Robles (Fanboy & Chum Chum),
Joey Ahlbum ("Lucy the Dinosaur," "Hilly the
Hippo"), Diane Kredensor (Call Me Bessie, The
Ollie & Moon Show), and many others.

Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!
................................................
One Emmy Award, one Telly Award,

and three other award nominations.
Wubbzy –neé Wubby, but you know how law-

yers can be– started life as a picture book that
was designed to double as a TV show for young
kids at Nick Jr.
Creator Bob Boyle initial Frederator life was

as a storyboard revisionist on Oh Yeah! Car-
toons –where he created two of his own original
shorts– graduating to Art Director, then produc-
er, of our series The Fairly OddParents.
When producer Susan Miller partnered with us

to start Bolder Media for Boys and Girls we in-
stantly thought that Bob had the goods, and sure
enough he quickly come up with several proj-
ects. "Hugo and the Really, Really, Really Long
String" became a picture book and then, straight
away, Wubbzy was a hit TV show across the
world.
Pitch bible cover 2004
Bob's first pitch to us became a

popular picture book on our Bolder
Media for Boys and Girls imprint. But
curiously, our publishing partner opted
to pass on Wubbzy even though it had
a guaranteed spot on the Nick Jr. schedule.
Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!
................................................
Like all artist/creators, Bob Boyle was

extremely particular about how to draw his
characters. The models not only served
storyboard artists and animators, but would
also help the hundreds of artist who would
work on the licensed products that ranged
from books to bedsheets, party favors to dolls.

Bob was ready for our title card obsession. And

since he was an artist himself, he couldn't have
been happier or more excited to set the creative
directors the cards would take.

Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!
................................................
Bob created the design style of Wubbzy based

on love of the collectible Japanese vinyl toys
that began making their way to the US in the
90s. It was only fitting that our licensee, Mat-
tel's Fisher-Price, indulged us with their own set
of blind box vinyl figurines.
We brought a box over to a Frederator New

York Drinking & Drawing event and the artists
had at 'em.

doesn't?). Thanks to our production partner
Susan Miller it was a match made in pop star
heaven.
Not surprisingly, the highest rated, best selling

Wubbzy.

Frederator tries to
be practical. Wubb
Idol was written as
a movie and as eight
discreet W!W!W!
episodes. That way,
it was programmed
as a feature film or
for traditional TV play.
Clever, yes?
The Meth Minute 39
................................................
Created by Dan Meth
"Garage band" animator Dan Meth was a one

man show, writing, designer, voice acting, and
scoring his web commercials when he joined
Frederator/New York in 2007. We were more
than skeptical when he suggested he could
create his own shorts show of "39 shorts in 39
weeks" but his skills persuaded us. It took a lit-
tle longer than projected, but The Meth Minute
39 dropped on Channel Frederator as our first
original online video series. "Internet Peo-
ple," sponsored by the then-new Tumblr social
network, was an out of the box sensation with
over 4 million views, and the spin off series
Nite Fite debuted nine months later.

What A Cartoon!
................................................
Before there was Frederator there

was What A Cartoon!
I started in the cartoon business in 1992 when

Ted Turner bought the venerable Hanna-Barbera
Cartoons and his entertainment chief, Scott
Sassa, asked me to change careers and run the
studio. The company had seen better days, its
big, original successes at least a decade in the
past. As a programming consultant to Nickel-
odeon I'd suggested a "back to the future" strat-
egy of theatrical-like shorts to find the hits of
the future –and, not for nothing, to resurrect the
very idea of "cartoons"– but in its infinite wis-
dom the channel passed. The idea came along
with me to H&B and, after a little persuasion,
Ted and Scott signed off.
With 5000 pitches from across the globe our

team selected 48 creators. There were veter-
ans Ralph Bakshi, Bruno Bozzetto, and David
Feiss, indie hero John Dilworth, and newcomers
Craig McCracken, Van Partible and Genndy
Tartakovsky and a few dozen others.
Big hits that became series and wonderful one

offs, this big idea factory was the first of our
talent incubators. And, the real beginning of my
life in cartoons.
–Fred Seibert

Designed by Larry Huber 1995

Dexter's Laboratory
................................................
Created by Genndy Tartakovsky
When he got out of CalArts in the late 80s,

Genndy Tartakovsky was determined to become
a lead animator on a feature film because the
cartoon business that he loved seemed like it
no longer was open to original creations. His
directing stint on Hanna-Barbera's 2 Stupid
Dogs made him realize that things were finally
changing and he pitched his unfinished senior
project as a short for What A Cartoon!
In 1995, Dexter's became the first series to be

spun out from our very first experimental car-
toon laboratory.
Johnny Bravo
................................................
Van Partible was kind of a guinea pig who

got his shot because Jed Simmons, Fred's
partner at Hanna-Barbera, wanted someone
to make a cartoon with some new technolo-
gy that was starting to make its way into an-
imation. Van, a motivated, hard worker, was
up to the task and his short was the perfect
candidate. He scored, and Johnny Bravo
was the second What A Cartoon! series.

Cow and Chicken
................................................
Thanks to a suggestion from WAC! Supervising

Producer Larry Huber, cartoon veteran David
Feiss came into What A Cartoon! from his run
of hilarious storyboards for Hanna-Barbera's
reboot Super Secret Secret Squirrel. His bed-
time stories for his kids became even more
outrageous when he boarded the original pitch
for Cow and Chicken and virtually every frame
was a really funny drawing. A full series order
followed in 1997.
The Powerpuff Girls

................................................
Created by Craig McCracken
Another 2 Stupid Dogs crew member, Craig

McCracken brought over his student film,
"Whoopass Stew - A Sticky Situation" starring
–who else?– The Whoopass Girls, to Fred
Seibert as a pitch for a short. He got a green-
light even before he storyboarded the actual
short that starred the renamed-for-kids The
Powerpuff Girls. Despite a disastrous set of
focus groups –kids were really confused by the
anime inspired design– the series went on to be
one of the mainstays of Cartoon Network, with
a successful reboot 18 years after the original.

I. . Am Weasel
..............................................
David Feiss loved the original TV cartoon series

formats from the 1950s, three six-minute shorts
in a half hour. Fred did too, and so did Cartoon
Network. So, originally Cow and Chicken was
two C&C bookended shorts with a different
character –I.M.Weasel– in the middle. By 1999,
Dave's brand of humor pushed the Weasel out
into his own series which eventually swelled to
79 episodes.
Courage the Cowardly Dog

................................................
John Dilworth is a stalwart of the New York

indie animation scene who probably never
imagined that his work would conquer the
mainstream. His original What A Cartoon!
short "The Chicken from Outer Space" gar-
nered Hanna-Barbera the only Academy Award
nomination in its history, and spawned the
series named after its star, Courage the
Cowardly Dog.

Frederator Postcard Series
................................................
www.FrederatorPostcard.co
At Hanna-Barbera Cartoons, Fred wanted to

do something that spotlighted the creators
and artists, since the industry had been disre-
specting them in so many ways for so many
decades. Back in the day, the movie studios
made posters for most of their cartoon short
subjects, so that’s what we did, too.
With Frederator Studios we continued our

shorts programs (with Oh Yeah! Cartoons),
but the cost of posters was prohibitive, so
postcards became the substitute; it was a
great way to carry on giving creators their
due. We’ve had almost 1000 card in 45
series, and ultimately the format allowed
for a lot more flexibility and fun.
Over the years we’ve designed cards in-house,

had guest designers, tagged series to our pro-
ductions and channels, or just enoyed ourselves.
They’re all “limited edition,” usually to (a slow-
ly shifting list of) 200 people or so, and we're
particularly happy when someone tells us they’ve
been saving their copies for 20 years.
