Timeline
Amy Winfrey is an American animator, screenwriter, songwriter, director and voice actress.
While attending school, Winfrey worked as an animator on South Park starting with the pilot episode, The Spirit of Christmas: Jesus vs. Santa in 1995.
When Comedy Central picked up the series, Winfrey remained part of the animation team and continued to work on the show, pausing her schooling to work on the feature film South Park Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
In a UCLA class, Winfrey made a website dedicated to traffic cones.
Because of many visitors on the traffic cone website, Winfrey decided to create a series of short web cartoons, and the result was Muffin Films.
Winfrey studied animation at UCLA and made a 3D film called The Bad Plant, which won her a silver medal at the Student Academy Awards in 2000.
The first was created as a thesis project in 2000 and lasted twelve episodes, one for each muffin in a dozen.
The series explored different styles of Flash animation through twelve different shorts, using muffins as the subject of the stories.
In 2001, Winfrey created another web series, Big Bunny. Winfrey provided all of the voice acting, except for the eponymous character who is voiced by her husband, Peter Merryman.
Winfrey pitched it as a series for NBC and Fox in 2002, but neither picked it up.
Winfrey created Making Fiends in 2003 as a web cartoon.
The series has 21 episodes created between 2003 and 2005.
Winfrey voiced several characters, including Charlotte.
Winfrey was able to produce web animation full time after she began selling merchandise of her characters online.
Nickelodeon contacted Winfrey in early 2004 about bringing Making Fiends on TV.
She is best known for creating the web series Making Fiends that was later picked up by Nickelodeon in 2008, and for directing several episodes of BoJack Horseman, including "The View From Halfway Down" and "Free Churro", which were each nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program at the 71st and 72nd Primetime Creative Arts Emmys.
In 2008, Winfrey started Squid and Frog, short cartoons about a red squid and an orange frog, who sing about various things, such as that you can't learn surgery from television.
The series only had one season, airing from October 4 to November 1, 2008, on the secondary channel Nicktoons Network.
Viacom, now Paramount Global, retained the rights to the property after the series was canceled.
Despite the limited run, the series was named "Best Television Series" at Annecy International Animation Film Festival in 2008.
To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Muffin Films, Amy Winfrey created six additional cartoons for the series.
In 2012, Winfrey created an animated series concept for Disney Television Animation titled Lucky Beast, featuring the voice of Tom Kenny as the title character, but it was never picked up.
For a five-year period between 2014 and 2019, Winfrey worked as director on all six seasons of the Netflix animated series BoJack Horseman, typically working on three episodes per season, including some of the series' most notable episodes, Zoës and Zeldas, Brand New Couch, Hank After Dark, Thoughts and Prayers, Ruthie, Free Churro, The New Client, and the show's penultimate episode, 'The View From Halfway Down.' She was nominated twice for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program by the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences for "Free Churro" and "The View From Halfway Down".
