…for

getting the “Cartoonist of the Year” title at the Channel Frederator Awards.

full details of the Awards For those who might not

know, Channel Frederator is a podcast for independent animated shorts (fancy way of saying almost anyone can

submit a cartoon they made to be played on the podcast) and had recently held the 1st Annual Channel Frederator

Awards on January 24th. I should know because I was asked to write a brief essay on animation. The entire thing

is I guess sponsered by Frederator Studios, the great people who bring you cartoons such as The Fairly

OddParents, Chalk Zone, and My Life As A Teenage Robot. I’ll check to see if Mr. Lasseter actually attended, and

if so, did he read my pathetic little essay? (which happened to have a shameless plug for Radio Pixar…)

Unfortunately, Mr. Lasseter was not able to physically attend the Freddy Award ceremnoy, but he did give a nice

acceptance speech from his office where he also talks about how the internet has changed how upcoming animators

are showcasing their work.
