PRODUCING ANIMATION from GGC, Inc. - available through Amazon, Barnes
and Noble, or ask your local retailer to order through Independent Publishers Group and the author of the e-book GARDNER'S GUIDE TO PITCHING AND SELLING ANIMATION available from many e-book retailers.
The goal of Animated Insights is to be a place where people interested
in behind the scenes in the animation industry, particularly for
positions that don't require drawing ability, can come together for
information and community. Drawing from over a decade in and around the animation industry, in
addition to her books, Animated Insights organizer Shannon Muir also offers great advice at this
site, in an article for WOW!-Women on Writing (though please note she does not take responsibility for the art used in this article) and check out her past columns
at Digital Media FX!
Last Updated: March 7, 2010. WATCH FOR A COMPLETE SITE REDESIGN! In the meantime, you can click here to get to all the content you've come to know and trust from Shannon Muir's Animated Insights or stay in touch with updates about the
site or the animation business by reading the site blog Animated Insights... Wisps of Writing Wisdom, or join the Animated Insights group on Facebook! This site will also become the home for preserving the well-known Shannon Muir's Voltron Pages (which you can now get to if you click here) that were discontinued from AOL in 2009 and definitely a resource to incorporate as part of Shannon Muir's Animated Insights. That's a lot to fold in so bear with us a bit longer.
