I’m always fascinated by those films that show a ‘behind the scenes look into the animation process. Here are a few I love.
A little earlier today Jerry and I were talking about Holy Grail titles as well as complete films. I thought it would be a good day to put a few of mine up here.
I asked Thad Kommorowski if it would be ok to share a transfer I did a year back from one of his rare 16mm prints – Tale of Two Mice (1945) with it’s original titles.
A few days back I was thinking about Jam Handy and industrial films in general – and Ted Petok and his Crunch Bird films came to mind, made in Detroit in the 70s.
Here’s a little preview of what my new Cubby Bear blu-ray set looks like. It’s finally finished and I think you will be quite pleased with the end result.
Since it’s Polytiks at the forefront in this convention season, I’ve been thinking a lot about political cartoons – and thought it would be fun to do an HD transfer of my print of ‘I’m Just a Bill’, scratches and all.
Popeye is my favorite cartoon character – and the Fleischer Popeyes are largely responsible for my love of classic animation.
I’ve completed the inspection of the Flip materials here, and they’re overall just beautiful. The MGM fine grains are things of beauty.
Something unusual this week. A batch of original Flip the Frog nitrate film elements arrived here from UCLA archives a handful of days ago, so I’ve shot a video of my evaluating some of them.
