Sketch by Chuck Jones of Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner—and there’s the secret: action lines. Even though the characters lack any coherent anatomy, the action lines are in place, and that’s what makes a good drawing.

“In searching for a style for a cartoon feature, many considerations are necessary. For one thing, it must be more than merely pleasing to the eye. The backgrounds must harmonize with the animated characters, as well as fit the mood of the story and the music. Sleeping Beauty is a fairytale that is supposed to have taken place long, long ago, so we did a great amount of research into medieval painting and architecture before we arrived at the right styling for this picture.” - Eyvind Earle

Maybe the most amazing festival ad I’ve ever seen (NSFW).

‘The Adventures of Indiana Jones’ Fan Film to Debut Online on September 29

via Rotoscopers:

“Created by animator Patrick Schoenmaker, the idea came to him when he was commissioned to create an art print for the release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in 2008. Having completed that, he decided to work on his own personal Indiana Jones project which would become The Adventures of Indiana Jones.

“Indiana Jones must have been my first true movie hero ever since I watched Raiders of the Lost Ark on a VCR way back when. Yes, some other heroes came and went, but Indy always held a special place. After Crystal Skull was released, my love for the character was once again fully ignited and with no new movies on the horizon back then, I decided to set up an Indiana Jones project of my own to keep the fire burning a little bit longer. So, that was back in 2011 and ‘a little bit longer’ turned into 5 years of hard work. The end of the project is finally in sight.” — Patrick Schoenmaker

Other than that, we don’t have any information about the plot, voice cast, runtime, or anything else of the film. So if you wanna find out, you’ll just have to go check out the film when it’s released online on September 29.”
