The Duck Factory

The Duck Factory was set in a small, run-down Hollywood studio peopled by the loony crew who produced a TV cartoon show called Dippy Duck. The newest employee was Skip Tarkenton, an eager, young cartoonist fresh from the Midwest and bursting with excitement at his first professional job. His wide-eyed innocence contrasted sharply with the cynicism of his co-workers: Brooks, the fatherly artist full of doubts about his own brilliance; Andrea, the sarcastic, man-hungry film editor; Marty, the two-bit gag writer; Roland, the only black storyboard artist in the business; and Wally, the voice-over narrator who had a repertoire of so many cartoon voices that he had long since forgotten his own voice. ...the place was virtually leaderless when Skip arrived, so the whole crew turned to the reluctant newcomer to save Dippy Duck--which was constantly on the brink of cancellation by the network.

Un jeune dessinateur naïf débarque à Hollywood et rejoint la production d'un dessin-animé à petit budget.

Skip Tarkenton es un joven animador que acaba de comenzar en una compañía de animación de bajo presupuesto que produce "The Dippy Duck Show". Como nuevo, Skip a menudo se lleva la peor parte y tiene que lidiar con su propia falta de confianza.
