The Filmation Animation Explanation

Via Mark Mayerson, there’s a good new piece at Flipanimation.net  called “I freely admit I worked at Filmation.” Three animators, including Disney/Dreamworks animator Tom Sito, recall their days working at Filmation, one of the two biggest producers of U.S. TV animation in from the ’60s through the ’80s.
