This week, we’re talking all about Oregon’s award-winning animation scene. Just think of Coraline, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio and Will Vinton Studio’s California Raisins ad from 1986.

OPB’s Oregon Art Beat producer Eric Slade helped make a documentary about that state’s animation industry, and he’s here to break down how creators have established the state as a reigning animation powerhouse that’s influencing the art form’s legacy and future.
