Just got back from Cinetopia Film Festival, which took place in Ann Arbor. I was invited to introduce a couple of films along with the one and only Leonard Maltin.
The first film was: Tyrus Wong, Brushstrokes in Hollywood. This is a new documentary about the life and art of Tyrus Wong, who as many of you know, had a lot to do with the styling of Disney's Bambi.
You can find out more about this terrific film here:

The second film was Bambi, on the big screen. For many people in the audience probably for the first time.
I also gave my presentation on Disney's Nine Old Men, followed by a book signing. Leonard, who has authored many important books over the years about animated as well as live action films, signed copies as well. We had a great time!
Here are more publicity illustrations from Bambi, plus a couple of dynamic story sketches.
Let me tell you, Walt Disney's classic animated films age beautifully. The audience was in awe watching Bambi.
On a much sadder, angry note, the past weekend was overshadowed by the horrific news out of Orlando. Today I am finding myself at a loss for words. Prayers to the families and loved ones of the victims.
no doubt that what happened in Orlando was a horrible news, but how good you were at the Cinetopia film festival, Congratulations Mr. Andreas!
ReplyDeleteAgreed on Orlando. This is turning out to be such a dark year.
ReplyDeleteThat documentary on Tyrus Wong sounds great! I hope that it comes out on DVD someday, so I can see it for myself!
ReplyDeleteUpdate: Recently recorded TYRUS as part of "American Masters" on PBS; wonderful, as I expected.
