About Hart Con
Have you ever dreamed of making a living doing what you love?
Creating movies. Telling unforgettable stories. Writing scripts. Designing animated characters. Performing voiceover work. Pitching your ideas to studios and actually selling them?
That’s what HART CON is all about.
HART CON is the brainchild of Butch Hartman, the iconic producer, animator, and creator behind beloved Nickelodeon classics including The Fairly OddParents, Danny Phantom, T.U.F.F. Puppy, and Bunsen Is a Beast.
Beyond television, Butch is also an entrepreneur and founder of Butch Hartman Studios, a full-service animation production company. The studio’s recent release, The Garden Cartoon, is already making waves in the Christian children’s entertainment market.

“Our goal with HART CON is to give up-and-coming talent a real opportunity to learn firsthand from professionals who’ve successfully navigated the entertainment business,” says Hartman.
“I get asked the same questions all the time,” says Hartman.
How do I break into the industry?
How do I create a show and pitch it to a studio?
How much money can I make?
How do I retain the rights to my work?
After years of hearing these questions and decades of experience building a successful career Butch is bringing the answers directly to you.
“This is an intensive learning experience designed to help creators not only improve their skills, but understand how to market themselves and their ideas effectively.”
