TVC 695.1: Ed welcomes Academy Award-nominated director and animator Bill Kroyer (FernGully: The Last Rainforest, Tron, Technological Threat). The title of Bill's memoir, Mr. In-Between: My Life in the Middle of the Animation Revolution, is a play on words: He began his career in animation drawing something known as "in-betweens," while the story arc of his career in animation happens to coincide with the many changes in the landscape of animation that have occurred over the past five decades. Mr. In-Between is available wherever books are sold through CRC Press. Topics this segment why working in animation is a "God-like" profession; the generosity in spirit among animators in general; how a chance meeting with legendary Warner Bros. animator Chuck Jones in Chicago circa 1974 inspired Bill to try his luck in Hollywood; plus Bill's early experiences in television working with producer Glen Larson and Stephen J. Cannell.
