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.
Mickey Cuts Up was directed by Burt Gillett and released 11/30/1931. It is found on Disney Treasures DVD: Mickey Mouse in Black & White Volume 1 disc 1. You may still find it here on YouTube. Have a look, if you need a clearer understanding of the following documents! Gillett left some documents pertaining Mickey Cuts Up behind, and I would like here to show a few of these that I recently lucked into. It is interesting to speculate in which order these were written - they seem to all be in Gillett's own handwriting and would probably date to late August or early September 1931. First we have two pages, numbered 1 & 2, with ideas linked to names, Otto and Webb, which to me seems to mean that the ideas were originally thought out by either Otto Englander or Webb Smith. There are interesting ideas that did not make the film - they are crossed out: "mower bumps up and down on hedge - trick cuts." Some were not crossed out and made it in the film: "Cuts down tre...
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..."

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.
