remember when 13 year olds wrote an episode of tiny toons adventures and sent it to spielberg and it got animated ?
do companies even still do that nowadays ?

Not that I know of, at least.
Of course not, animation studios these days are soulless.
Likely not.
Star Trek used to have an Open Call policy for scripts. If they liked it then they would use it.
They don't have to because anyone can upload their work on the internet. Back then it was something amazing that your work was seen on the screen.
Why are they all so fat?
Horse's 100 episode is a compilation of fanfics Yea Forums had made. Thats like 13yr olds.
Then when was the last time a fanfiction got an official adaptation ?
After (2019 film)
Fifty Shades of Grey (2015 film)
I meant cartoons
copyright indictions make this very hard
lots of creators aren't even allowed to read fanfic.
[Citation needed]
South Park season 19, episode 6
I meant a real cartoon

Lots of people behind shows talk about it. It's called "not accepting unsolicited material". They're afraid that if their work is similar to a fanfcition, the fanfic writer would sue them.
The girls I was originally talking about sent their work to the studio, I'm not talking about copying a fanfic on the internet
I'm talking about cases where writers would ask fans to write an episode so they can animate it
Your life.
That's even worse. Say you get a hundred scripts and read them all. you can't use anything from any of the 99 losing ones, as the authors can now argue you stole from them since there's proof you had access to their content.
And you can't use the "unsolicited work" either to tell them to fuck off since you asked for this.
One way would be to include a rule to the contest saying all rights belong to you even if they lose but that's illegal in some places since they don't get anything in return.
At this point it's a better bet to just plagiarize part of some kid's fanfic on Wattpad, say you never read it and hope no one notices.
Cute style
If this was done today (hell, it was probably done back then), Hollywood's Minitrue would cut out everything interesting, different from the work's MO, or whatever approximates "controversial" to the average millennial, like milk, or hand gestures as old as man itself..
That said, this should never be done and never have been done by anyone, unless this is the standard for your series and you're giving every Tom, Dick and Sally who calls in full royalties (that's my answer for whether this would happen today, by the way). Even then, just doing it proves you either don't have a writing team or they've all had some type of collective brain hemorrhage that makes them think their pens and keyboards are knives and cake.
No, studio policy by and large is to reject anything even remotely resembling independent ideas because of potential royalties.
I think Teen Titans Go, there was a Make-A-Wish kid

Well that's just make me sad, actually I am reminded of a contest, it was for a recent (within 5 years) horror movie, I know it because it was mentioned in a youtube video review of it.
You could send them ideas or something like that but they had full unlimited control of whatever you send them.
Honestly their script wasn't even really "supposed" to be read or animated either.
IIRC it was like they happened to send it to the right address, not expecting it to be read, whoever was in charge of handling that mail assumed it was a real script and so it eventually made its way to Speilberg, and once he saw it he was impressed enough that three kids wrote it and that it felt enough like the show that he contacted them and they all ended up further working on it with him (so it wasn't like what aired on TV was literally what they wrote the first time or all written by them).
It was mostly luck that the script somehow ended up even being seen by Spielberg, and even at the time it was unusual that it got animated at all.
Not exactly the same, but Adventure Time took a character that a child sent them and put it in the show back in 2011.
>do companies even still do that nowadays ?
It was never really done back then, nor today. As explained by I believe in most cases writers write spec scripts for other shows, to prove they're capable of handling different characters and different storytelling. IIRC, some of writers on The Simpsons were hired after writing spec scripts for Seinfield.
Didn't Monster Hunter have a weapon design contest that basically said that all entries would belong to Capcom once submitted?
90s fashion was pretty much just wearing clothes that were too big and baggy for you
You sound like a lunatic. Stop commenting, no one cares about your mad ravings.
It was animated by tms !
Damn I miss baggy clothes. Me-meow is the last I can think of. I wonder what the kid thought of adventure at the end.
Forgot pics
Or what he thought when they aged her up
This doesn't happen on most shows because of the WGA.
Yeah, and then they couldn't use elements from those stories without paying royalties. Really gets messy.
>Renee, Sarah, and Amy are based on 3 live-action girls who wrote the script for the cartoon.
>Renee is voiced by Cree Summer
Neat
>She appeared on an episode of the web series Nostalgia Critic on November 15, 2016, where she talked about her experience with writing the episode "Buster and Babs Go Hawaiian" with her friends.

Care to elaborate, or did you just feel like calling someone a retard today and remembered you need your future Libra account in good standing to keep your job?
Take a hike Famicom
Make-A-Wish isn't really the same thing. Codename: Kids Next Door also had one.
The latter, I see.
Roddenberry / Lincoln Enterprises / Desilu bought those scripts, the writers became WGA and were credited in the opening. This wasn't "we liked your idea now go away." It could still work today, guild rules haven't changed.
I WANNA FUCK
