I hope this forum is going to get someone to give me the answers to the very specific questions that I need to know as I endevour in the unknown waters of animation.
I have been working on setting up an animation studio for months now and I need real comprehensive information to make a proper analysis.
I know someone out there has all the information I need- please help me.

1. I would like to know how segmented the media industry is and how
animation fits into the grand scheme of media.
2. I would like to find out the hierarchical structure of a typical animation
studio.
3. I want to find out general costs of producing animation programes and adverts.
4. How much money goes into purchasing the cartoon programmes from studios (like cartoon network)
