[2023-10-12 19:41:19]
We saw examples of lean media from lock super organization, Led Zeppelin. Today I will study the long-lasting Fox animation series. For introduction of Lean Media, please see Introduction, Lean Media Framework and counterparts of its fat media.
Production team: In the late 1980s, writer and director James L. Brooks served as producer of the new Fox TV online sketch comedy series "Tracy Ehrman Show". He needed a short animation clip as a bumper before the commercial and turned himself into a cartoonist Matt Gronig who worked with the Ullman show's animator, director, and actor to produce the Simpsons softstart version in 1987 It was. This 30 - minute series debuted in 1989 and led by Sam Simon, a writer and producer who participated in the Ullman show.
Budget: Rupert Murdoch, President of News Corp. and Barry Diller of Fox CEO, argues that the Fox program in the late 1980s will budget whether animation like Simpsons or not. The show is still an early reality show like the police and the people who wish the most in America. However, the bumper is relatively expensive ($ 15,000 per clip)
Audience feedback: Individual clips full of Ullman shows are unreviewed nationwide. But there was a talk of young audiences and the producer noticed that the wonderful scrolls shown to the audience at the Ullman show were full of lively laughter. This shows that the complete plan will work out very well
Repetition cycle: The original idea of a cartoonist came from Sketch of Groenig on paper. Producers, animators, and actors go one step ahead. Soft start was Ullman's bumper, hard start was done in 1989. Format and protagonists were set up for the first few seasons, but the show innovates animation technology and continues to expand to other media including 1990 pop songs, 2007 movies and international product licenses .

The main difference between Waltons and Simpsons is the use of animations in Simpsons and the actual use of actors in Waltons. Manga media has a wide range of uses, almost everything can happen in cartoons. But if this is not the case for Walton, its meaning is obvious for the use of real people, for example, if John goes to Homer, he died long ago because of alcoholism. Using cartoons as media, producers can choose from a variety of ways to attract viewers' interests. In addition to its versatility, The Simpsons has another important quality, and its picture is much better than Walton. Simpson is colorful and vibrant, reflecting the content of the show, Walton is dull, the Simpsons are exciting, and Walton is not so
For those who never saw "The Simpsons" or those who do not seriously consider their content, this show might not look like any other foolish manga. If these case studies proved one, that means "Simpsons" is more than just a simple cartoon. The Simpsons is an extraordinary international cultural phenomenon, governments, companies and individuals all over the world are afraid to influence and rule. I especially focused on this TV program, but the Simpsons brand is an international symbol in movies (Simpsons' movies), clothing, toys, goods, comics, board / video games and of course online social media culture became. . All of these independent industries and media have played an important role in the evolution of the Simpsons worldwide.
