When people ask “What are your cartoon influences?”, it usually stumps me… because there’s just too many. So I put this music video together to list off as many influences as I could think of.

Oh yeah, it’s all roughly in chronological order of when I first saw them! How many do you recognize?

Soundtrack is "Ca Plane Pour Moi" by Plastic Bertrand

    faggle rock, foxtrot, star wars, the noid, corduroy, dr. Seuss, the dirtiest dog, are you my mother?, the electric company, mighty mouse, pink panther, space ghost, archy, gumby, voltron, mad magazine, dick tracy, monty python, and the cover of the chronicles of narnia books are some pretty good influences!

    great work and I love the music.

    What's the thing before The Stupids at 00:14? It looks familiar and I think I've been trying to track it down for a while.
  • Steve D. Long plus 1 year ago
    Sara, I think you're referring to the illustration of Steven Kellogg stevenkellogg.com/

    I can't remember which book those images were from though.

    Go Dog Go and Are You My Mother were two of my absolute favorite books as a kid. I must have read them hundreds of times.
