"They like how he thinks, they like how he talks, and the jokes he makes. People can tell it's not a decision made by a committee. It's this one person's sense of humor. Probably not the best sense of humor, but it's his sense of humor. Doing this animation, I need to bring that ethos."
"The gyoza needs to look a little whiter. It's too pink."
"People follow my YouTube channel because they like Uncle Roger,"
Nigel Ng micromanages visual and tonal details of the animated series Fried to preserve the Uncle Roger persona as it transitions from live-action videos to animation. The show will premiere on YouTube later this year and is produced by Toonstar, headquartered in a converted furniture warehouse in downtown Los Angeles. Toonstar was cofounded by John Attanasio and Luisa Huang after their collaboration at Warner Bros. The studio uses proprietary software that automates much of the animation workflow while incorporating Ng's feedback to retain the character's distinctive humor and personal sensibility.
