IT STINKS! Book/Lyrics by Robert Berliner, Music by Aaron Kenny WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT—Berliner & Kenny inspired by the Touchstone/Amblin film directed by Robert Zemeckis Original screenplay by Jeffrey Price & Peter S. Seaman, based on the work of Gary K. Wolf CONFIDENTIAL—All Rights Reserved IT STINKS! Book/lyrics by Robert Berliner, music by Aaron Kenny EDDIE VALIANT returns home from the scene of Acme’s murder and is met outside his door by Roger’s long-time co-star and friend, BABY HERMAN. Despite appearing to be a sweet, cartoon infant, BABY is actually a gruff, middle-aged man. He’s more cranky than usual—he’s here on a mission. BABY HERMAN The rabbit didn’t kill Acme. I should know. He’s a dear friend of mine. (EDDIE is unmoved. BABY tries to connect, man-to-man.) Yanno, Valiant… WE AIN’T SO DIFF’RENT, YOU AND ME. (EDDIE reacts skeptically—pfffft?) JUST—HEAR ME OUT, OKAY? (grasping to keep EDDIE’s attention) Fer instance… WE BOTH COULD USE A BOTTLE, AND A NAP. EDDIE You're telling me! BABY HERMAN AND, SURE, I LOOK LIKE I'M A "BABY," BUT I WAS NOT BORN YESTERDAY! SO I CAN TELL WHEN I CAN SMELL A LOAD. OF. GOD. DAMNED. CRAP. Figuratively speakin', of course. I’m tellin’ ya, Valiant—Roger Rabbit? A murderer?? Who Framed Roger Rabbit—Berliner & Kenny—CONFIDENTIAL BABY HERMAN ( cont.) The whole thing reeks like yesterday’s diapers. IT STINKS! SOME SHADY STUFF IS GOIN’ ON. IT’S AWFULLY ROUGH THAT ACME’S GONE, BUT STILL… THERE’S GOTTA BE MORE TO IT THAN THE COPS OR PAPERS SAY. THIS STORY ISN’T BLACK-AND-WHITE THERE’S ALWAYS SHADES OF GRAY. (ooh! COLORS!) AND REDS. AND GREENS! AND YELLOWS, BLUES, AND PINKS— (EDDIE gestures to bring BABY back to reality.) IT STINKS! ‘CAUSE EVERY COP WHO’S ON THE BEAT LOOKS FOR A TOON TO TAKE THE HEAT THESE DAYS. AND ROGER DIDN’T DO IT, BUT TO THEM IT’S JUST AS WELL! SOME PEOPLE ONLY LIKE US WHEN THEY SEE US IN A CEL. [/CELL] (EDDIE turns to leave. BABY persists.) LOOK, IT STINKS THE RABBIT’S WANTED, AND THAT ACME HAD TO CROAK. IT STINKS THE SYSTEM’S BUSTED, AND THAT JUSTICE IS A JOKE. IT STINKS YOU TOOK THOSE PICTURES (ENOUGH. EDDIE makes for his door.) SO THAT ROGER TAKES THE BLAME. IT STINKS THAT YOU WOULD WALK AWAY WITHOUT ONE LICK OF SHAME! (Touché. EDDIE turns to listen.) Who Framed Roger Rabbit—Berliner & Kenny—CONFIDENTIAL BABY HERMAN ( cont.) IT STINKS! YOU WERE A HERO, AND A FRIEND; A HUMAN WE COULD ALL DEPEND UPON. SO COME ON, BOSS, BEFORE THEY TOSS THE RABBIT IN THE CLINK, JUST CHANGE YOUR MIND AND HELP TO FIND THE TRUTH BEHIND THE STINK. EDDIE The truth, huh? I’ll tell you the truth. You’re right, IT STINKS! BUT NO ONE SAID THAT LIFE WAS FAIR. BELIEVE ME, PAL, I’M WELL AWARE IT’S NOT. YOU LIVE A LIFE OF LAUGHTER, THEN YOU TAKE A MIGHTY FALL— SO IT HAPPENS TO THE RABBIT. IT CAN HAPPEN TO US ALL! IT STINKS THAT WITH YOUR LOONY, TOONY “PEP” YOU TOONS HAVE GIVEN ME A REP! NO MORE! I’M THROUGH WITH TOONTOWN’S TROUBLES, I GOT TROUBLES OF MY OWN. I WON’T PRETEND; I’M N OT Y OUR FRIEND! SO JUST LEAVE ME ALONE. BABY HERMAN IT STINKS YOU’D BE SO STUBBORN WITH A MYS’TRY TO BE SOLVED. EDDIE IT STINKS YOU AREN’T LIST’NING— I. DON’T. WANT. TO. BE. INVOLVED! BABY HERMAN You're already involved! Who Framed Roger Rabbit—Berliner & Kenny—CONFIDENTIAL EDDIE IT STINKS I CAN’T PAY RENT. BABY HERMAN Rent!? THEY WANNA TAKE OUR HOMES, FOR GOOD! IF THEY FOUND SOME WAY TO KILL US ALL, THEY ABSOLUTELY WOULD! (Musical epiphany—Oh NO. BABY is right! And EDDIE has just met DOOM, the man who wants to do it. This is serious.) EDDIE Wait a minute! Now, hold on! That's… [c razy?? But. It isn't.] That's not… that's… Well, whaddya mean, take your homes? BABY HERMAN Toontown. Acme owned it, right? He promised he’d leave Toontown to us Toons! The paper says Acme didn't leave a will… but that's a load of bullpucky. Every Toon knows Acme had a will! That will is why he got rubbed out. EDDIE And what do you suppose I do about it? BABY HERMAN Somebody’s just gotta start asking the right questions. (“why”s evoke baby crying, increasingly unnerving EDDIE) WHYYYYYYYYY… DID MARVIN ACME WIND UP DEAD? WHYYYYYYYYY… CAN’T ANYBODY FIND HIS WILL? WHYYYYYYYYY’D… THEY DROP A SAFE RIGHT ON HIS HEAD? BOTH WHO WANTS TOONTOWN BAD ENOUGH TO KILL? Who Framed Roger Rabbit—Berliner & Kenny—CONFIDENTIAL BABY HERMAN EDDIE (echo/counter) IT STINKS IT STINKS YOU PUT THE RABBIT IN A STEW I TOOK SOME PICTURES NOW ALL OF TOONTOWN LOOKS TO BUT THERE’S NO YOU, MY FRIEND JUSTICE IN THE END—I ’m not your friend! ‘CAUSE YOU’RE THE ONE TO HELP US, THAT’S WHAT EV’RYBODY THINKS Oh, yeah? NO TIME TO BE A LOAFER WHO JUST SITS AROUND AND DRINKS Hey, watch it! BABY HERMAN ‘CAUSE SOMETHING’S ROTTEN, EDDIE! START CONNECTING ALL THE LINKS.

  • Who Framed Roger Rabbit a Jumpchain CYOA (V1) Welcome, Jumper, to Los Angeles
    Who Framed Roger Rabbit A Jumpchain CYOA (V1) Welcome, Jumper, to Los Angeles. Here, cartoon characters- such as Mickey Mouse or Bugs Bunny- work as actors and entertainers, producing the classic cartoons that we all know and love. These cartoon characters- called “Toons”- live in their own part of town, which is fittingly named “Toontown”. But all is not right, and very soon events will transpire that threaten the very existence of Toons. Greed, Patty Cake, murder all threaten to bring Toontown to its knees. In a few days, one Eddie Valiant will be commissioned by R.K. Maroon, head of Maroon Cartoons, to investigate Roger Rabbit’s wife; Jessica Rabbit, a sensual Toon who dances at the Ink & Paint Club. Will you assist Eddie Valiant in his mission, or will you ensure the destruction of Toontown? Maybe you’ll do neither. But in any case… Here’s 1,000 CP to help you get situated. Origins: Roll 2d8+18 for your age. Gender stays the same; you can pay 50 CP to change both. Drop In: You know the drill; no new memories or a history in this world. You start outside of the ACME factory, where cartoon props and gag items like disappearing-reappearing ink are made. (0 CP) Drop In-Toon: That’s… different. You’re a Toon now, but you don’t have any new memories or a history. You might be able to get a job at Disney or Warner Bros if you’re funny enough. You might also be able to get your own strip in the funny pages, if it’s the non-moving cartoons you like.

  • The Process of Combining Animation with Live-Action Films
    THE PROCESS OF COMBINING ANIMATION WITH LIVE-ACTION FILMS Tuomas Anton Tulijoki Bachelor’s thesis May 2018 Degree Programme in Media 2 ABSTRACT Tampereen ammattikorkeakoulu Tampere University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Media Tulijoki Tuomas The Process of Combining Animation with Live-action Films Bachelor’s thesis 42 pages, appendices 1 2018 ___________________________________________________ The purpose of this thesis was to examine the process of performing the setup for animating digital characters on top of filmed footage. During my internship I saw some issues in the working processes of the company I was working with, specifically how the company handled animating characters on top of filmed footage. In order to research this topic, the methods used by modern visual effects artists were studied, to see how they went about the process of creating visual effects and animation on top of live-action footage. A single test shot was filmed, and set up for animation using the information that was gathered. The methods used were functional, and the entire process of filming, setting up and animating was tested. However, due to the lack of professional tools and experience with the techniques used, the end results were only mediocre at best. In the end, the writer of the thesis could not perfectly animate over the filmed footage in such a way that it could be accepted in a professional environment, even if a general understanding on how the process works was reached. 3 1 INTRODUCTION………….………………………………..……………...……....5 2 THE

  • Podcast Transcription: Internalized Racism in Who Framed Roger Rabbit
    Velazquez 1 Student Podcast Transcript Los Angeles: On Film and On Record digital exhibit Host: Celia Velazquez Podcast conducted on December 8, 2020 at an unspecified location Transcribed by: Celia Velazquez Edited by: Celia Velazquez Time: 00:23:03 Biographical Note: Celia Velazquez, California State University at Northridge graduate student Podcast Transcription: Internalized Racism in Who Framed Roger Rabbit There is silence the first 26 seconds of this podcast. The audio starts at 00:00:27. CV: Hello my name is Celia Velazquez and today I will be discussing the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit. In Robert Zemeckis’ movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the humans mistreat and belittle the living, breathing, animated characters called the Toons. In this movie, the Toons represent a marginalized group, and how people in these groups develop a negative self image because of their own internalized racism. Internalized racism can be defined as “the acceptance, by marginalized racial populations, of the negative societal beliefs and stereotypes about themselves” (Speight 129). Jessica Rabbit, Roger Rabbit, and Judge Doom have internalized the prejudices they have heard about Toons, and they now believe they don’t have value. For Jessica Rabbit, she believes she is evil because of how her toon body is drawn. Roger Rabbit allows himself to be abused by directors and by the private detective, Eddie Valiant. Judge Doom has changed his entire appearance and wants to kill all the other Toons because he believes Toons lives are not worthy of living. Who Framed Roger Rabbit exposes the true effects of discrimination where people who received this treatment then start to believe they are inferior to the dominant culture.

It involved reading well over a thousand pages of research, watching nearly a hundred films, and immersing myself in some unfamiliar areas of both pop-culture and academia. Piecing it all together was oftentimes humbling, exhausting, and challenging, but in the grand scheme of things, I am incredibly grateful for the chance to have done this project.
