The days of Mickey Mouse as numbered. The Animated gatekeepers of Hollywood have a challenger. Toonstar founders John Attanasio and Louisa Huang tell us how new creators are using AI to make animation at 90% of the cost and 80% quicker.
This isn’t about hitting a button and watching a cartoon pop out. Toonstar’s approach combines AI with traditional animation to speed up production without losing that " human touch". It’s a faster, smarter way to create animated content, but one that is built on storytelling and character.
We also get into how Toonstar uses blockchain to bring fans closer to the creative process. With projects like Steven & Parker and The Gimmicks, co-produced with Mila Kunis, Toonstar lets fans vote on storylines, create backstories, and even design characters. This is fandom how it was imagined.
Toonstar’s AI-powered process lets them test ideas on platforms like TikTok and YouTube, adjusting based on real-time audience feedback. The result? More hits, fewer misses, and an engaged fanbase.
Please Enjoy the show.
