Rock-A-Doodle Behind the scenes

Not one of Don Bluth’s best works though I don’t think it’s one of his worst efforts either and there’s a lot I like in the film.

Having read his biography recently it was interesting to learn that members at his studio weren’t too sold on the film’s concept as well.  Part 1 Part 2

John Pomeroy's First Animation!

 John Pomeroy just shared this incredible little animation that he did where he was only 15 years old. He talks about not having any hole punches so had to line up the corners of the paper.

Here’s a great video he did on hands, this 4 min video really change the game for me in terms of understanding how to approach hands and get that Milt Kahl feeling, Don Bluth was always praised for his drawing abilities, rising up the Disney ranks from low level inbetweener to full Animator in a very short time.  I even remember reading a interview Milt did that Andreas Deja shared on his blog where Milt specifically mentioned Don as one of the new guys that he thought was good, Which was high praise from that man. Here’s the article with Milt’s praise for Don…  http://www.michaelbarrier.com/Int...
