Fox draws toon talent

FOX Studio launches new animation departments

Fox Broadcasting Co. and 20th Century Fox TV are searching for the next generation of animation hit shows by launching two departments dedicated to toon development and production.

Fox and 20th jointly created the Fox Inkubator program to develop a range of shortform animated content working with animators and writers. Their goal is to allow creators to work out ideas and concepts in short films, rather than just write scripts. They hope that some of the short films will show promise and be the basis for a number of series.

Fox and its sibling studio have owned the primetime animation biz for the past 20 years with "The Simpsons," "King of the Hill," "Family Guy," "Futurama," and "American Dad." Both the network and the studio's top brass want to ensure that it stays that way for at least the next 20 years.
