Are We The Cartoon Generation?

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Everyone has heard about Baby Boomers, the Greatest Generation, and Generation X. And it made us wonder- are we the cartoon generation?

The first problem with that question is that people who make cartoons are all ages. In MakeACartoonYou.com offices, employees vary in age from 68 year old Estelle to the 19 year old intern Max- and they all make cartoons. So being part of the cartoon generation isn’t just about when you were born.

It’s about being part of a movement, and that’s a movement we’re all part of. We all love expressing ourselves, sharing our lives wiith our families and friends, and building new connections. We’re all part of the cartoon generation.

Want to prove it?

Belle Has A Rosy Disposition

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Belle. After being fired from her job, left by her boyfriend, and abandoned by her pet cat Shmumu, you’d think that Belle would be a little down. You’d be wrong. Wearing a beautiful blue dress, her violet eyes continue to shine, and her Easter-green leggings still charm everyone walking down the street. If that doesn’t get the point across, she always has a rose to make her day smell bright. Want your own positive outlook on life? Then make a cartoon today!

Zazu Will Sing Her Heart Out

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

Today’s Cartoon of the Day is Zazu. Born in a Parisian suburb, she moved to the big city to try and make it on stage. With irridescent red locks and dazzling eyes, she charms all the casting directors in town. But she has sass to go with her sparkle- a red skirt and fishnet stockings ensure that, along with her skeletally-chic bag. Want to break into broadway?

Do Geniuses Make Cartoons?

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

A lot of the time, people wonder who makes cartoons that look like them. And that made us think of a question: Do Geniuses Make Cartoons?

Guess what? We asked one. Here’s what he wrote back:

Dearest MakeACartoonYou.com,

Naturally, I appreciate your correspondence this evening with respect to my own cartooning habits, and forthrightly I shall tell you the objective truth: I love to cartoon! Whenever I’m metaphorically burnt out on quantum physics, Sartre, or other geniusy things, I simply make a cartoon. It makes me more creative and, dare I say, smarter as well! Keep cartooning young ones- soon you shall be as smart as me!

Best,

Your Genius

There you have it! Making a cartoon is fun and smart! So make your own genius cartoon today!
