Our good friends at The Animation Show have revived their lively FORUMS which were taken down a few months ago due to technical snafus. I am the guest moderator of their Animation History Forum, and I invite you to stop by chat about classic cartoons.

  • COMMENT OF THE MOMENT

    "One of the most amazing things about these commercials was how much they achieved with a limited drawing count. When I put the first Marky Maypo spot in IRON GIANT I actually counted the number of drawings per minute and found it to be significantly lower than much of what is considered to be “limited” animation today… and yet it FEELS like much fuller animation. Because the animation is done with so much knowledge and experience, because the animator knew exactly what was essential and what wasn’t… you are left with an incredibly distinctive impression of these two characters… AND IT’S A DAMN INSTANT OATMEAL COMMERCIAL!"
