    Episode 810, Story 1: WB Cartoons Tukufu Zuberi: Our first case attempts to animate the hidden history of these cartoon drawings. March 1935: Porky Pig makes his debut in I Haven’t Got a Hat , and quickly becomes the star of Warner Bros’ Looney Tunes series. A parade of groundbreaking characters follow: Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, The Roadrunner. By the 1940’s, Porky Pig and his Looney Tunes entourage overthrow the reigning king of cartoon shorts: Walt Disney’s Mickey Mouse. But did an earlier cartoon creature attempt to topple King Mickey from his throne? Bruce Cockerill of San Ramon, California, has made a discovery that may shed light on the scrappy, early days of cartoon animation. Bruce Cockerill: I found these drawings in a salvage yard in Berkeley, California and I have no idea what they are. Tukufu: I’m Tukufu Zuberi, and I’m taking a first peek at Bruce’s curious drawings. Bruce: Here, I’ve got something to show you. Tukufu: Alright, what have you got? Where did you get these from? Bruce: At a salvage yard in Berkley, California. Tukufu: Interesting. I mean this doesn’t look like anything I’ve ever seen. And I watched cartoons when I was a kid. Bruce: Okay. Me too. And I don’t know much about them either. Tukufu: You know who this guy is or this character is? Bruce: No idea. No idea. Well I see Mickey Mouse in one. Tukufu: This is definitely Mickey Mouse. 1 Bruce: And they’re on plastic. Tukufu: So this came with these? Bruce: Right.

Cartoons Comes to Berkshire Museum January 25, 2020 Special exhibition highlights original artwork and creative processes behind the classic animations [Pittsfield, MA] – Forget duck season and rabbit season, January 25 to May 10 is cartoon season at Berkshire Museum! A whole cast of colorful characters and one-of-a-kind artwork will brighten the winter doldrums as part of The Art of Warner Bros. Cartoons, an exhibition of original artwork from the world of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies. An opening celebration featuring family-friendly activities, cartoon screenings, and light refreshments will be held Saturday, January 25, from 1 to 5 pm. During this special exhibition, Warner Bros. fans of all ages can see production artwork including drawings, paintings, and transparent celluloids (known in the industry as “cels”) used to create some of the studio’s classic cartoon shorts from their debut in 1930 through the early 1960s as they explore the history of this legendary Hollywood animation studio. Never intended to be displayed, each work is a marvelous visual icon on its own, exhibiting the remarkable talent and ingenuity behind the familiar films. Artwork, timelines, film clips, and interpretive panels shed light on the creative process behind the scenes of these masterpieces of satirical humor, trace the development of each iconic cartoon star, and explore step-by-step the techniques through which animated films are made. Works by all of the studio’s directors will be richly represented including Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Friz Freeling, and Bob Clampett.

  • Animation 23910
    Film 3910-02: Classical Cel Animation TTH 6-8 Pigott 107 Dr. Kirsten Thompson ___________________________________________________ Shhh! Be vewwy vewwy quiet. I'm hunting wabbits! With iconic characters like Elmer Fudd, Mickey Mouse, Popeye the Sailor and Wile E. Coyote, classical cel animation has shaped American popular culture. This class will explore the influential role of cel animation in the United States from the 1890's through to the 1960's, as an industrial form that is still enormously influential on contemporary shows like Family Guy and The Simpsons. We'll study the development of cel animation as an industry, production process and series of aesthetic and generic strategies, while we survey technological developments like the role of sound, music and color and the emergence of personality animation with characters like Bugs Bunny and Felix the cat. We'll trace the vexed ways in which animation engaged with, reproduced or transgressed different representations of race and gender and consider the influential role that animation played in World War II propaganda films, and in graphic modernism. This class can fulfill your genre requirement for Film Majors (PEP required) Each week the first class will be a screening of a feature film, while the second class will be devoted to group work, viewing of clips and some lecturing (Roughly 70 % group work & analysis and 30 % lecture). Together we will practice close analysis of the weekly readings and film. You will be expected to participate in class discussions, complete all class assignments on time and see all scheduled films. As the quarter system moves very quickly, it is essential you come to class prepared.
