Bert and Jennifer Klein just finished producing a very charming 4-minute hand drawn short called The Chestnut Tree. It was directed and animated by a young woman named Hyun-min Lee, who is making her directorial debut. The film was executive produced by Don Hahn. Sorry for the late notice, but it’s screening this weekend for Academy qualification with the filmmakers present at both of the Sunday showings. Here are the details:

Laemmle Sunset 5

    I look forward to seeing this - both Bert and Jennifer are immensely talented animators, so it will be quite the treat!

    With Don Hahn producing does this make this a Disney short?

    Is this going to have anything to do with creative design or… that one Orwell poem.. I think… I’ll have to do some more research on something I heard once about Orwell going to a cafe called The Chestnut Tree to drink coffee and write.. or something of that nature…

    It’s considered a Picnic Pictures short.

  • COMMENT OF THE MOMENT

    "I remember when Ward and the guys would practice at lunch hour. And yes, I mean in the Animation Building where their sounds filled the hallways. Boy, you really felt you worked at a cartoon studio back in those days. Damn! I miss the days when the animation business used to be fun."
