Digs at Fred aside, I look forward to this promising development. More outlets for creators to get their work in front of massive audiences on a prime medium--the silver screen--can't be a bad th...
I've done some work for Fred, and have been one of his bloggers in the past, and I've had nothing but good experiences with him. Sure, I pitched and pitched and pitched to him, and he never picke...
Haha, wow. I have no dog in this fight whatsoever. But damn, DanO, you just got served! I think this news about Sony is great!
Seems to me that any executive responsible for shepherding the sheer talent that Fred Siebert has deserves respect. Would we even have a Cartoon Network now without the series and directors he's ...
This is good news because Sony Pictures Animation is lacking in creativity and leadership.
Fred has been one of the smartest persons I have ever had the pleasure of working alongside. He was a great mentor to me, and I value all I learned from him and his friendship. Whether it was the...
Previously, when Fred was president of Hanna Barbera, his shorts program opened the doors for the likes of Genndy Tartakovsky, Craig McCracken and Seth MacFarlane to emerge. " wow. two for...
I think we need more producers like Fred. In a sane world all animation producers are like him. Unfortunately, we do not live in a sane world. Rock on, Jerry!
DanO - You're wrong here. And I shall correct you. First off,
out of the recent 40 shorts ("FORTY") two were actually picked

If Fred Seibert is so smart, and so slick, then what accounts for Frederator's ABYSMAL record as an animation studio. Apart from 'Adventure time', what has been developed there that actually will...
It is simply not true that NY only has post-production or web design work. There is animation happening here.. and while nobody can deny that we are not anywhere near our top production years of ...
Jerry: "...the level of TV and movie (industry) production in the city has dropped significantly over the last ten years." This is the harsh truth. I can safety say that other than ...
DanO - Fred has earned bragging rights for shepherding Dexter's Laboratory, The Powerpuff Girls, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Johnny Bravo, The Fairly Oddparents and others (including ...
You won’t hear a bad word about Fred from the dozens (hundreds?) of “quality individuals” who’ve worked for him." But you will hear PLENTY of bad words from Fred about other peopl...
Does Frederator actually get creatively involved in their projects, or just finances them and leaves the work to other studios?
This is excellent news, no doubt about it.
I dig the graphic on this post- I've been following the Adventure Time posts at http://frederatorblogs.com/adventure_time/ with a lot of joy and excitement. Whether people like Fred or not (in th...
DanO - You are entitled to your opinion, and I'm not here to defend Fred (though I'm obviously biased, as he's personally handed me the opportunity to produce a cartoon and I'm certainly g...
There may very well be some quality individuals working for Fred Seibert, all indications lead me to think that. But Fred Seibert is one of the most disconnected, arrogant, and incompetent execut...
Frederator is as much a 'studio' as the Gotham Group is.
