According to Hilligoss, the concept for Banjo Frog came to him during a walk next to a creek near his Melbourne home when he noted the contrast between the beautiful green tree-frog's poor singing ability and the ugly banjo frog's better ability.Hilligoss did most of the animation in Banjo Frogs by himself, except for a crowd scene in which he used an assistant.
