How To Congratulate Someone On Having A Baby

SPECIAL OSCARS 1965

Walt Disney in 1965 walked focused on youth feature real image: Those Calloways, The Monkey's Uncle and That Darn Cat! and had 4 more in preparation. Not produce another animated film until 2 years later. Disney

apart, at that time there were 2 major animation American producers:

On one side was Hanna Barbera, had revolutionized limited animation techniques with ultra-cheap , its over-production and products success as Yogi Bear , The Flintstones, The Jetsons and Johnny Quest now had invented a revolutionary new concept, The Saturday Morning's Cartoons : cheap set of action to deliver on the undervalued grills on Saturday morning, so that became the target of advertisers toys and treats . The first series would Atom Ant, and will soon be devoted exclusively to that time zone.

On the other side was DePattie-Freleng, who after the success of the Pink Panther , UA charge them a hundred short of that figure over the next 10 years, while Warner entrust them with new shorts from Looney Tunes .

The fact is that the time when Academy Award for Best Animated Short were an example of the major studios had passed away. This year there were 2 short foreigners:
  • The Thieving Magpie (La Gazza Ladra) - Allied Artists - Emanuele Luzzati


A short musical Italian cut-out aesthetic Romance . Zagreb School was influencing the Italians and the animation in Europe, both This as in the West .

  • Clay or the Origin of Species - Harvard University, Pathé Contemporary Films - Eliot Noyes, Jr.

A British short Eliot Noyes, for who invented the technique of Clay Animation Free. Noyes later also invented the technique of animation sand.

And what was the other big former animator for Warner? I mean Chuck Jones, that won the Oscar for best animated short in 1965.



Chuck Jones at this time worked with producer Syb-Tower 12 producing MGM short, in this case won Oscar with this strange love story between two abstract geometric shapes.

not say if the winning film deserved the Oscar and I have not seen Clay or the Origin of Species. Maybe this year was not a great year, but it is interesting that the 3 nominees were made of completely different techniques. The following year would continue the experiments animation.
