Frank Tashlin was great.His live action films were hilarious – but, as we know, his print cartoons and animated films were even funnier. If you haven’t yet, please read Mike Barrier’s 1971

Chris Harding’s MAKE MINE SHOEBOX, a quite funny corporate film produced for Hallmark Cards, can now be seen online in its entirety HERE. I was ecstatic when I discovered Chris’s work a few months back – he’s a major new talent on the scene whose films deliver a solid combination of design, animation and content. Hopefully we’ll be seeing many more of his cartoons in the future.  No Comments » posted in Old Brew, Chris Harding

That’s the word in Hollywood’s animation world, where the third installment of the incredibly successful Pixar series has no director, writer or, possibly, stars. “Every single animator of note has turned down the director’s job. They don’t want to cross Pixar. They’ve become the only deal in town.” While I doubt Disney will halt it’s plans or have trouble finding a production crew, the fate of our favorite Pixar characters solely in Disney hands gives us reason to pause. Just seeing Buzz, Woody and Jessie on ice is scary enough, especially when we consider the possible fate of Mr. Incredible and Frozone. No Comments » posted in Old Brew

  I got an email from Brew reader Linda Drury today asking if I had a photo of Dave Barry – the comedian and cartoon voice actor who passed away on August 16th, 2001. Barry briefly voiced Bluto (for Famous Studios), Elmer Fudd (for Warner Bros. in Pre-Hysterical Hare), was a regular in Columbia Screen Gems cartoons and the Speaking Of Animals series. He’s best remembered for his Bogart vocal imitation in the Bugs Bunny cartoons Slick Hare(1947) and 8-Ball Bunny (1950). I had never seen a good photo of Barry myself, so I did a little research and found these two images (above) from the 1962 Academy Players Directory (an annual performer reference put out by the Academy of Motion Pictue Arts and Sciences). I thought it was worth posting here for future reference.For more information about this Dave Barry, go to Mark Evanier’s POVonline.com No Comments » posted in Old Brew

I’m helping a certain animation legend (and I don’t use that term loosely) set up his own website. If you’re wondering who, here’s a big hint: there was a retrospective of his work at last year’s Ottawa Animation Festival. He’s currently looking for somebody to design the website. There will be monetary compensation. Preferably, it’ll be a designer in the LA area who can collaborate with him in person. If you’re interested, please submit samples to me at amid [at] animationblast [dot] com and I’ll forward the materials to him. |
