  1. Some of these categories seem like they could be retired. Do the animation folks ever show up? And I have to wonder how many submissions advertising illustration gets.

    Also, if it were up to me I’d take newspaper comics strips, newspaper panel cartoons and gag cartoons and put them all into a single “periodical cartoon” (or something) category.

  2. I wonder if “Gag Cartoons” can be webcomic one panel cartoons.

  3. Hey, there, Mr Anderson, don’t go knocking the animation folk, now. In recent years, Tom Sito’s been there, David Silverman, Mo Willems, Tom Gammill, a Bancroft or two, Glen Keane & Eric Goldberg, just to name a few, and there’s at least one lowly & humble commercial animator/director (myself) as well as several who direct, work in storyboarding, story & character design and in the general animation field.

  4. Oh goodness, I’m certainly not knocking anyone. I’ve only been to the one Reubens and wasn’t sure if animation folks really took note of them. There’s gotta be all sorts of animation award things I’m thinking, so I was just wondering if the Reubens was on animation’s collective radar. That’s all.
