  • 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.

  • Leslie Bishko the Uses and Abuses of Cartoon Style in Animation
    Animation Studies – Vol.2, 2007 Leslie Bishko The Uses and Abuses of Cartoon Style in Animation Introduction “Cartoon style” in animation broadly refers to animation design and movement that adheres to the 12 Principles of Animation, defined and developed at the Disney Studios. The Principles evolved through trial and error, by observing motion on-screen and noting what aspects of animated movement served the believability of the characters. To this day, the 12 Principles of Animation are known by all animators and used as a benchmark for good animation. Yet, these principles are not complete movement concepts. They influence specific movement patterns that are often applied without consideration of their effects, resulting in characterization that lacks authenticity. Viewers have come to expect that animated character performances portray the illusion of a living being. As a determining factor for believability in animation, authenticity functions on two levels. First, we suspend our disbelief and engage with the character; there is no question of the character’s aliveness. Second, through characterization, we experience an authentic being whose inner intent is communicated outwardly, and made unmistakably clear. Originating from the roots of 20th century modern dance, Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) is a conceptual framework for the observation, description and interpretation of human movement that offers a robust movement vocabulary. Where Animation Principles can potentially impose a specific style of animated movement, LMA is style-neutral and therefore excels at articulating components of style. Additionally, LMA addresses the relationship of intent to action, an innovative feature that aids us in the observation of authenticity which the Animation Principles lack.

Melrose, MA 02176-3933 APPLICATION INFORMATION Title: Cartooning America: The Fleischer Brothers Story Grant period: From 2018-09-03 to 2019-04-19 Project field(s): U.S. History; Film History and Criticism; Media Studies Description of project: Cartooning America: The Fleischer Brothers Story is a 60-minute film about a family of artists and inventors who revolutionized animation and created some of the funniest and most irreverent cartoon characters of all time. They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.

  • Disney Weasels Besides the Ones in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Weasels in Stories Taking Place Before, During Or Immediately After
    Disney weasels besides the ones in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Weasels in stories taking place before, during or immediately after 1947: (Note: The criteria here is that any of these weasels could’ve easily lived in the same time period as the Toon Patrol. It is not based on the chronological order of their appearances in our world. It’s difficult to say precisely when any of these characters, save for a few, were created/born in the WFRR world.) “Slithy” (named by Fatal) The Resurrection of Doom This sneaky, amoral weasel conceives the plan to bring Judge Doom back from the dead, of all things. It’s unknown why he decides to do this exactly, and it makes one wonder how loyal the weasels were to Doom. After all, would he not be more concerned bringing back the Toon Patrol? It suggests that he would get a better result with Doom than with his “brothers”, as he calls them. The idea that all the members of the Toon Patrol and these three new ones are all literal brothers smacks too much of the Koopalings (that is, they all look really darned different from each other), so it can be assumed that he means “brothers” in the sense of “brother weasels”, or that he considered them to be like brothers, as in “I love you like a brother”. Because there seems to be the suggestion that he wants revenge (presumably because of his “brothers’” death), and is willing to revive someone as dangerous and demented as Doom, I get the impression that he’s slightly deranged.
