Milt Kahl in Beverly Hills


Anyone else going to the "Milt Kahl: The Animation Michelangelo" Academy event at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills on Monday April 27th? With tickets at $5, it is sure to sell out quickly!

    Would really LOVE to go, but it's pretty hard, when I'm sitting in Denmark with a damn cheesy job...
    So enjoy Hans!:D

    To quote Baghera, "just what he needs, more confidence". I am sure Milt up there is letting the other Nine know of the title of his little tribute back here on earth!

    What happened to the "Animation versus story" post?

    Re: Animation vs. Story, I posted that prematurely - it was a draft, and I am as yet not happy with it. It will return after a bit of work!

    I wish I could, but I'm a NorCal resident.

    Just dropping in to thank you for posting all this rare material. It was particularly refreshing to hear Tytla's humanizing response to the more widely known Graham Action Analysis Class.

Børge Ring - mentor and playmate.

Working with Børge was fun, hard, boring, exciting, unusual, normal, and most of all educational. Over a year before leaving high school, in March 1978 I found out he lived in my neighborhood from a tv program about him and his wife Joanika. So I found him in the phone book (remember those?) and called him up. While studying art history, for a year I was his "pupil" doing animation tests, dropping by and having him correct them. Then, fed up with my art history professors, I moved my animation desk with my Neilson-Hordell disc into his Blaricum attic! (I am pointing at it in this photo taken last year:) Here, for almost four years, from March 1980 to November 1983 I smelled of his Douwe Egberts Red Amphora pipe tobacco and every day incl. weekends, Christmas and New Year from 10 to 6 we worked to the sound of BBC World Service if there were no jazz songs he had to listen to over and over again for an upcoming gig. I started doing simple non-production tests from his animation...

Prod. 2079 - Lady and the Tramp (VIII)  - Seq. 03.2 - What is a Baby?

Image
Directed by Ham Luske assisted by Jim Swain. Laid out by Ken Anderson, Al Zinnen and Thor Putnam. Secretary Ruth Wright. This Final draft dated 8/5/54. Animation by Ken O'Brien, George Nicholas, Jerry Hathcock, Harvey Toombs, Hal Ambro, Hal King with the baby by George Rowley. Again, very serviceable animators, no masterpieces... I like the CinemaScope note for sc. 28: "Lady will have to be alive throughout scene."

Prod. 2006 is Coming Up!

Hi Friends! It's been too long! I have been drenched in work, and the history of the place I am working in is in itself REALLY interesting! On the other hand, I cannot stand not being in touch with my good Disney friends, and I feel a severe need to share some more stuff. This time I will show you Prod. 2006 - Dumbo. This is the sequence listing, typed on labels and stuck onto the inside of the folder containing the draft: I certainly hope someone will make mosaics of this, as well, though I must warn you in advance that there are scenes missing animator assignments. This production seems to have been made so quickly, that once the last scenes were handed out, there would be no new drafts made up. This seems quite logical, considering my "Standard Disclaimer:" "Animation drafts were never meant to be historical documents. They were meant as go-to documents, showing the responsible artist for a certain scene, who might be able to help in case there would be any need ...
