In 2007, Manny Rivera leapt onto the screen in Nickelodeon's Annie award-winning production "El Tigre." This colorful series follows the adventures of a capricious 13-year old and the villains and superheroes he meets along the way. In this session, the creators, directors, art director, and technical director reveal everything there is to know about story, storytelling, character development, design, and animation. Along the way, they explain how Flash is used as an animation tool for television.
