After the Warner's cartoon studio closed in 1963, Dunn joined DePatie–Freleng Enterprises; in 1964, he crafted the story for The Pink Phink, which earned the Oscar as Best Animated Short.[3] He also went to Hanna-Barbera with Freleng to do storyboards for Hey There, It's Yogi Bear!.[4] Many of his DePatie–Freleng cartoons re-use plots from Warner Brothers cartoons. He was a prolific story man over the next 19 years and also did some animation work for the 1967 Spider-Man series.
