Walter Lantz Productions was an American animation studio. It was in operation from 1928 to 1972 and was the principal supplier of animation for Universal Studios. The studio was originally formed as Universal Cartoon Studios on the initiative of Universal movie mogul Carl Laemmle, who was tired of the continuous company politics he was dealing with concerning contracting cartoons outside animation studios. Walter Lantz, who was Laemmle's part-time chauffeur and a veteran of the John R. Bray Studios with considerable experience in all elements of animation production, was selected to run the department.

dbo:abstract
  • Walter Lantz Productions fue un estudio de animación estadounidense. Estuvo activo entre 1928 y 1973, era el mayor proveedor de animación para Universal Studios, hoy en día parte de NBC Universal. El estudio fue originalmente fundado como Universal Studio Cartoons gracias a la iniciativa de Carl Laemmle quien estaba cansado de contratar los servicios de otras empresas. Walter Lantz, quien había trabajado en y tenía experiencia en la producción de cortometrajes animados, fue elegido para dirigir el estudio. En 1935, el nombre del estudio fue cambiado a Walter Lantz Productions bajo la dirección de Lantz y en 1940 trató de obtener los derechos de autor de sus personajes. Los dibujos animados continuaron siendo distribuidos por Universal. Los personajes más importantes del estudio fueron el Pájaro Loco, Andy Panda, Chilly Willy y Oswald el conejo afortunado. A lo largo de la historia del estudio, mantuvo la reputación de una calidad media en sus trabajos. Sus dibujos animados fueron considerados superiores a los de Famous Studios y Terrytoons, pero no obtuvieron el mismo reconocimiento artístico que los creados por The Walt Disney Company, Warner Brothers o UPA. Sin embargo, el estudio se veía beneficiado con la llegada de personas de otros lugares, debido a la diferencia entre Lantz y otros productores como Walt Disney, Fred Quimby y Eddie Selzer. Tex Avery fue uno de los muchos talentos que llegaron al estudio de Lantz. Junto a Disney, Walter Lantz Productions tuvo una larga carrera en la producción de dibujos animados, la cual culminó en 1973. Desde entonces, los personajes han mantenido cierta popularidad en televisión. (es)

In 1935, the studio was severed from Universal and became Walter Lantz Studio under Lantz's direct control, and in 1939, renamed to Walter Lantz Productions. Lantz managed to gain the copyright for his characters. The cartoons continued to be distributed by Universal through 1947, changing to United Artists distribution in 1947–49, and by Universal again from 1950 to 1972. The most prominent characters for the studio were Woody Woodpecker, Andy Panda, Chilly Willy, and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. The music-oriented Swing Symphony cartoons were another successful staple but ended after swing music's popularity faded after the end of World War II. The company was succeeded by Universal Animation Studios and Amblimation until 1997, when it was closed. After Amblimation went defunct, Universal Animation Studios carried out the legacy of both companies. (en)
