Industry Influences in brief... 9/18/2017
Let's get this straight...
- Roald Dahl / Lewis Carroll / Lemony Snicket (Daniel Handler) / Shel Silverstein / Edward Gorey ...
NOT... Charles Schultz / Peanuts / Dr. Seuss or JK. Rowling
- Sid & Marty Croft / Rankin Bass / Early 70's Electric Company / Looney Tunes / Hanna-Barbera / UPA ...
NOT... Jim Henson / The Muppets and or Sesame Street
- Spaulding Grey / Garrison Keillor / Tom Bodett / Joseph Campbell... NOT... Disney-fied / Pixar-like storytelling
- PC... NOT Apple
While I do LOVE Peanuts and Walt Disney... and respect Fred Rodgers, Jim Henson & Co. as well as everything Steve Jobs built to the ends of the earth... they really weren't big influences here. Well, Emmett Otter (Jim Henson) was a huge one, but that was about it. ~AA
