TMNT dream job? - Page 2

*Powder* · 11-13-2013, 06:08 PM

Cover artist for IDW, designing merchandise art (like in the 90's where everything was hand drawn, as opposed to now when they recycle the same CG stock poses over and over), or being a voice actor involved with an animated series.

*Cipher* · 11-13-2013, 06:39 PM

Comic writer.

*pannoni1* · 11-13-2013, 06:47 PM

For me it would be the marketing director (Mark Freedman for example). They can provide as much merchandise as possible and more importantly can be part of QC with regards to seeing if its not only a good product, but can have an indirect influence on the other units, such as the Playmates toys, cartoons, comics, and movies. And there's always an opportunity to still be creative and make my own merchandise.

What would you do if you couldn't fail, TMNT style.

I would totally want to be World's most Renowned expert on TMNT with my own TV Show, exploring the entirety of the franchise. Meeting people, hunting and collecting figures, games, movies, eer'thang.

Opening up a museum in my Home City.

All this being paid for or if I won the lottery.

*raph27* · 11-13-2013, 07:34 PM

Merchandise designer for Nick show, Playmates Quality Control. No more:
unpainted Fishface eyeball
Cracking Fishface fin
Random plastic squares
Sticky stuff between fingers
Random paint splotches on Don and Shredder
Unmovable Snakeweed arm hinges
Loose Baby Mikey arm joints

all of these happened to me

Also, I heard there is a job for Lucasfilm where all this guy does is play with Star Wars toys and approve them. He gets paid a TON, and he works right down the hall from Lucas. So they're close friends.
I would LOVE to do that for TMNT.

RaphAndDonnie · 11-13-2013, 07:43 PM

I would work animating on one of the shows. I love animation, Turtles and hope to become an animator anyway so working on one of the shows would be like icing on the cake.

Hell if I were just drawing concept art for characters I would be happy.

*Donatello19* · 11-13-2013, 07:59 PM

Doing a character's voice is always cool, but I'd also love to be an animator or illustrator for the comics. Also, working for Playmates Toys would be...interesting.

*Wildcat* · 11-13-2013, 11:23 PM

Creating my own live action movies. Not because of Michael Bay or anything with the new movie just that Id love to put together my own version of a movie series.

Doing an animated series has been done 3 times and it also takes way more writing and coming up with storylines so I don't feel a big need to do that.

I love drawing and Id say Im pretty good. Not great but good enough so Id like to design everything in the movies.

*Shark_Blade* · 11-14-2013, 12:54 AM

Comic artist.

Slime State Alumni · 11-14-2013, 02:03 AM

Concept/character design artist for the toy line and the cartoon. Working on the comic would be fun too.

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 11-14-2013, 05:39 AM

I would love to work on art design side of things, coming up with new character concepts, designing the turtles etc.

*miru* · 11-14-2013, 09:08 AM

Toy design under Playmates, to show them how fan-favorites could work as toys.

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 11-14-2013, 01:11 PM

One of the head writers for an animated series. I've got a lot of little ideas in my head that would work across long story arcs.

11-14-2013, 01:24 PM

Making tmnt costumes.

*Whatswiththeheadbands?* · 11-14-2013, 02:27 PM

Head boss of playmates. And my first order would be to put either Discogod or plasticplayhouse in charge of the prototypes for the figures.

*Krutch* · 11-14-2013, 03:21 PM

director of a live action tmnt film

*Icebot* · 11-14-2013, 03:24 PM

My dream job would be writing episodes of an 11th season of the first cartoon, what happened after Divide and Conquer. I have plenty of ideas.

*snake* · 11-14-2013, 08:22 PM

Head of the original toon'. I would have more storylines and keep it like S1, but make it better as it goes along.

Riel · 11-15-2013, 02:11 PM

I'd love to animate them, or make comics. I love planning comics about them, but I'm always too lazy to finish them..!

And yes, if I could do something with the TMNT I'd definitely make something more darker, but then it wouldn't be a show for children anymore.. I love how the comics can be a bit darker, but we rarely see anything dark animated.. I'd love to see that.

I'd love to make a cartoon more or less lighthearted, but as time goes on and the turtles get older, it gets darker and darker and more mature.

Then, in one of the much later episodes, April looks through some old videos of herself and the turtles from season one, and how much fun they're having as compared to now.
