KING OF THE HILL DO'S AND DON'T'S

I
love
checking out
production 
materials
from 
animated shows.

When you create a TV show,
you're creating
a living and breathing world.
And no matter what 
kind of world it is,
there are 
RULES.

Do "normal" physics apply?

Can a character take their head 
off and throw it to someone else?

Do they have 4 or five fingers?

You might not think it matters,
but since it takes so many people 
to animate a TV series,
everyone needs to know 
how to draw the same way.
And details are what gives a show it's life and character.
Right down to the way a character chews their food.

And every production is different.
Here are some great examples from
KING OF THE HILL:




To be honest,
KING OF THE HILL
never cracked me up much.
But I still love getting insight into 
how their show was run.
For lots more from 
their production guide,
