Organisational Structure of Cartoon Network Studios : Cartoon Network Studios is an American animation studio. A subsidiary of the Turner Broadcasting System (an arm of the Time Warner media conglomerate), Cartoon Network Studios focuses on producing and developing animated programs for and related to Cartoon Network. Some programming produced by Cartoon Network Studios has also been broadcast on the now-defunct Kids' WB, Cartoon Network's sister network.

The studio began in 1994 as a division of Hanna-Barbera Cartoons which was dedicated to producing original programming for Cartoon Network, including latter-day Hanna-Barbera creations such as Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel and The Powerpuff Girls. In 1997, the division's productions credited them as their parent studio Hanna-Barbera.

In 2000 Cartoon Network Studios produced based on Hanna-Barbera characters Adult Swim series Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law, created by Michael Ouweleen and Eric Richter. Some years later, in 2006, it made second work for Adult Swim - pilot episode of Aaron Springer's Korgoth of Barbaria in co-production with Williams Street.

In 2001, after the death of William Hanna, the Hanna-Barbera name was dropped as a production entity and the H-B studio was folded into Warner Bros. Animation.[citation needed] Cartoon Network Studios was then revived as a separate entity from Hanna-Barbera, growing out of the animation studio.[citation needed] Cartoon Network Studios has continued to thrive with productions such as The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and Samurai Jack and newer productions such as Chowder, The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack and Adventure Time.

As of 2010's Regular Show, the Cartoon Network Studios logo has changed to fit the network's new logo. In 2010, the company made it's first CGI movie: Firebreather

One communication strategy is clarity and conciseness of written communications (Prusak 1997). Part of the information system is the development of a database of various information including internal documents of the company. The database constitutes the compilation of the reports of the sales executives and administrators as well as regularly updated information on products and services. To become an effective source of information, the writing of compiled reports should be clear and concise in a standard format to support consistency and readability. In addition, the updated information should also be clear and concise to apprise the sales executives and administrators of price changes and other information they need in closing sales.



Another communication strategy is developing the value of verbal and non-verbal communications (Van Riel 1995; Prusak 1997; Simonsen 2001). As mentioned earlier, leadership role in fostering a culture of open communications is crucial. This addresses the issue of resistance to information sharing and the poor communication linkage of the different levels of the organizational structure.



Verbal communications has a number of important elements to ensure the effective relay and exchange of information. One element is the conscious organization of the message by considering the objective of the communication to determine the appropriate language and mode of communication. The preparatory stages of the information system involve close interaction between the technical team and personnel and responsive communication is important for effective coordination. Another element is expression. (Van Riel 1995; Prusak 1997; Simonsen 2001) Information systems in the implementation stage usually operate in a non-personal manner so that expressions to indicate the tone and intention of the message is important. By reading the language and tone of data, the intended expression, whether argumentative or matter of fact statement, should be determinable. These elements address the problem of poor exchange of feedback and understanding of technical language.
