“Davy Crockett in Outer Space”
July 24, 2008 11:30 pm
Tiny Inventions, a Brooklyn-based animation studio run by husband-and-wife team Max Porter and Ru Kuwahata, recently created a fun and charming music video for Playhouse Disney called “Davy Crockett in Outer Space.” The song is by They Might Be Giants, and they co-directed the piece with designer/illustrator David Cowles. Max and Ru have also created a detailed “making of” blog post that shows all the hand-crafted effort that went into the production.

Wow, that was pretty good! =) I like that they used the theme from the old Disney show. That almost sounds like it would make a good TV show…
