12.01.07 by Widge @ 4:21 am  Stephen Worth over at the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive Project Blog has some of Virgil Ross' drawings of the cartoon, "A Hare Grows in Manhattan." (We previously posted about magazine illustrations of that particular short here--that was also due to the fine folks at ASIFA.) Worth has taken the drawings and turned them into a flipbook pencil test, so you can see them in action. It's short, but man, it's pretty cool. Categorized as: Animation

11.13.07 by Widge @ 10:07 pm Most animators really get into their work. And some people take this notion to extremes. Extremes that the rest of us sit back and admire. Showing here: Yes, in case you were wondering, it's a video that's supposed to be viral in support of the Samsung G800. Stop motion appears to be the advertising animation technique of choice, I guess. Direct link for the feedreaders. Categorized as: Animation

11.04.07 by Widge @ 2:09 am Finding the fourth cartoon on Saturday Morning Blog, I was curious to see if I could find all four. There's the first animated short from from 1950, based on the story by Dr. Seuss. Then three shorts followed it: "Gerald McBoing Boing's Symphony," "How Now Boing Boing," and then "Gerald McBoing Boing on the Planet Moo," which is the one I'm most familiar with for some odd reason. I was able to find everything online but "Symphony," and that's the second one. So here's chapters one, three and four in the McBoing Boing saga, for your amusement: Categorized as: Animation
