This sequence I want to present by itself. Many find it their favorite single sequence, with 96-02 ft. of classical movie magic (1 minute 4 seconds 2 frames) by Art Babbitt. Effects by Cornett Wood, Frank Follmer, Sandy Strother and Tom Barnes.
Note also that this draft includes the director's pick-up date, 10/16/39. This is, I believe, the date that the storyboard was issued to the director.
The assistant director is probably Norman Wright.
ReplyDeleteWright = Norman Wright, Bambi sequence director?
ReplyDeleteIt's curious that assistant directors Graham Heid and Norman Wright have a "story development" credit in the movie program (and in the on-screen credits in recent releases of the film).
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they actually did some story work or if they got the "story develpment" credit for their work as assistant directors.
Ah yes, Art Babbitt's charming Mushroom dance, I always liked the small fungus moving around, as if he's the leader!
ReplyDeleteClassic animation, even though it's only 96ft worth of excellent animation!
