The Bancroft Brothers Animation Podcast

Here's a description: In our unofficial "Part 3" of podcasts where we talk to industry insiders about GenAI usage and how it will affect artists, The Bancroft Bros talk with filmmaker Paul Trillo from the LA studio, Asteria.  Paul and his team have just finished an animated music video for artist Cuco called “A Love Letter to LA" that uses hand drawn 2d animation and GenAI in harmony with each other.  Paul went out of his way to make sure real artists and animators were paid and that they created a "clean" AI data

The Bancroft Brothers present the Chris Sonnenburg show- co-starring Jeff Snow!  Yep, this episode is a panel that Chris and Jeff put on at our own Animation Y'all Expo just a couple months ago.  Chris leads the panel which is called "Here’s the pitch..” - and he goes deep on how you need to think about your show so it can get bought!  Chris and Jeff use real world examples and behind the scenes of developing shows like the "Tangled" animated series for Disney!  This one should NOT be missed!

Co-creator of Pixar’s Win or Lose series, Carrie Hobson!

In this fun episode, the Bancroft Bros get the chance to speak with the amazing voice actor, Eric Bauza, the voice for Daffy Duck, Elmor Fudd and many more.   He also does a pretty good TRUMP, as you'll hear.   We discuss the upcoming release of the fully 2D animated new WB feature film, "The Day the Earth Blew Up".   You won't want to miss this one!  Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or anywhere you get your podcasts from.

The Bancroft Brothers are honored to have the legendary illustrator, James Gurney on the podcast this week!  We discovered so many similarities in our paths and mutual loves and influences.  Enjoy this discussion of animation, illustration, and even a bit of where he believes things are headed for himself- and possibly you.
