How did you setup the interview?

A few typos which could stand to be fixed...

CCF: The Fansite: What are your animation influences?
C. McCracken: Rocky and Bullwinkle, Underdog, we're big for me. Though I love cartoons and comics so much that I can always find something inspirational in most anything.

Loose the apostrophe...should be were, not we are....

CCF: The Fansite: What advise do you have for would-be animation students?
C. McCracken: Keep drawing and take your time. Don't try to be perfect right off the bat, let your stlye and ideas develop. I'd been trying to come up with a cartoon character to call my own since I was 12 and every year I was frustrated that I hadn't done it yet. It wasn't till I was 20 that I came up with the Girls and 11 years later I'm still trying to get it just right.

Style...simple typo! =O

Groovy interview...I can't wait for the movie now!

Thanks for the typo corrections. I've been fixing it since I got posted it, it seems.

As for setting it up.....He came to the site, emailed me, I asked him, he said yes.

Well, why not? In this business, ratings is everything. High ratings means high dollars from the advertisers. And if it works, why change it?

-- Kane ... besides, it's only 13 eps a season. Even at 6 seasons, that's just 78.

nice Interview. Only one thing flawed it, When i was finished reading it my eyes were totally messed up and evrything seems like a blur. Thats what i get for reading an interview with a pink background in the dark :(

Weird thing, I was looking for a more recent McCrakien interview, he seems like a very interesting guy.

Very nice ... very much dedicated to his love of doing his job. He's been known to even spending the holidays at the studio, all for the 'girls, and the fans.

-- Kane ... 126 days left until the movie premieres, and counting ...
