Excellent! However, you skipped a sequence, Hans. This isn't where Jock & Trusty Propose. Actually, this is where Tramp kills the Rat! Sorry, just lettin' you know!
Excellent sequence with action by Wolfgang "Woolie" Reitherman & his assistants Eric Cleworth & Jerry Hathcock! However, you've made a mistake, Hans. You skipped a sequence. This is where Tramp Kills The Rat! P.S. After Lady and the Tramp, what are you gonna post next? More short drafts or movie drafts? May I suggest Bambi, Saludos Amigos, Make Mine Music, Fun & Fancy Free & The Jungle Book?
The first commenter to NOT mention you've 'skipped a sequence'. ;-)
Anyways, I recall many sources that read either Milt Kahl and Hal King did the scolding sequences; although it was both...so that's that. Ollie's work is sentimental as it usually is, and of course, Milt's work is excellent.
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...
This just in from Børge Ring. It is not a Disney item, but fun, nonetheless: William Littlejohn animated Lucy and Snoopy for Melendez on the PEANUTS series and recounted: "At one time Charles Schultz (the author of the comic strip) complained: "You guys make a mistake when you animate Charlie Brown. You change the placement of his nose when his head turns from profile to front view!" "No Charlie...the change is YOURS!" "Ah...come on fellers, I know my own characters!" They invited him down to the studio, set him up in the attic at a lightbox and said: "Draw a Charlie Brown in profile and one where he looks into the camera. Then draw three stages in between the two where his head turns." At 7 o'clock that evening, when everybody was having beers and playing pool, a tired Schulz came down the stairs, jacket slung over the shoulder. He stopped briefly to say: "OK, you guys. You win..."
As a departure from my usual Disney-related posts, here is a bit about my "guilty pleasure," the French musical film by director Jacques Demy, "Les Demoiselles de Rochefort," in English "The Young Girls of Rochefort," released March 8, 1967. The first DVD I ever bought in the late 90s, in Annecy, France, was just this film. Recently I also got the Blu-Ray , and now having just received the 5-CD box set with Michel Legrands great music that came out last year , I revisited the movie and had a look at, where in Rochefort the film was shot. With the help of Google Maps, here is an overview of the locations: The film begins and ends around the strange (and defunct) bridge Le Pont Transbordeur, south of the city, but most of the action happens around Place Colbert, the center of the old town, with the office of the town's mayor used as the home of the twins, played by the Dorléac sisters, Françoise and Catherine, the latter using as stage name her mother...

Just a heads up, you posted the pages to the sequence after Jock n' Trusty's scene by accident. These are the pages to the rat sequence.
ReplyDeleteYou've got slightly ahead of yourself... you've posted links to the following sequence!
ReplyDeleteMr. Perk, I think you have the wrong draft pages here...These are from 'Tramp kills rat', the sequence after the proposal.
ReplyDeleteThis is sequence 12 (Tramp kills Rat) not sequence 11!
ReplyDeleteHi Hans, you accidentally put the wrong draft in here. Can you fix it please?
ReplyDeleteOopsie, guys! Sorry for that - they were on auto-post, as I was sailing over the Atlantic ;-)
ReplyDeleteFixed now, though!

I'm a bit surprised to see Wilfred Jaxon didn't handle this sequence. Ham Luske has most all of the animators animators off sequence 2.
