A CalArts student, Eusong Lee directed this amazing student film.
Powerful message, beautiful imagery.
McKenna then proceeded to bawl her eyes out until she was nothing but a sopping wet blob in her chair.
CalArts students just want us to cry. All of them.
“Here are a couple more pages, full of the kind of basics that seem too obvious and simple to bother with but that can make the difference between a drawing that works and one that doesn’t. I sure wish someone would have told me this stuff when I was at CalArts, anyway, it would’ve saved me years of crummy drawings…” (via Temple of the Seven Golden Camels)

“OK I’m having fun with this DA thing so I’ve dug waaaaaaay back and found this… the first drawing of The Powerpuff Girls (then the Whoopass Girls) ever! Done in 1991, ( Gaaah 17 years ago!!) if it looks strange it’s ‘cause it was done on orange construction paper only 1 inch big.
Notice Bubbles’ and Buttercup’s colors are switched. I actually remember changing it by the second drawing.” (via Craig McCracken)

The Archive Series—Walt Disney’s Nine Old Men: The Flipbooks
Pete Doctor’s tribute to the Nine Old Men, which will be released on September 18, 2012:
This box set of nine flip books pays tribute to Walt Disney’s original animators–the Nine Old Men: Les Clark, Eric Larson, Frank Thomas, John Lounsbery, Ward Kimball, Ollie Johnston, Mark Davis, Wolfgang Reitherman, and Milt Kahl. Each flip book features a scene from an animated Disney feature in its original line-drawn form, having been selected from among a wide range of films for great movement and classic characters. Such iconic clips from the reel of Disney animation history include: Lady and the Tramp’s moonlit spaghetti dinner; Sorcerer Mickey’s ordeal with a horde of mops; and Thumper’s announcement that a prince has been born! In addition to the flip books, the box will contain a booklet providing additional information about the artists.
It’s currently selling for $37.42 (list price of $60) on Amazon.
