Winsor McCay

I feels good to finally go through these boxes in my garage and clean up the place for a change. As I mentioned before, I have collected a lot of articles of interest, long before the internet was available, and will post them for all to see, enjoy and learn from somewhere in the Animateducated blog. Its kinda of a Information yard sale, all I ask is that you click on the ads to let me know you appreciate this blog.

So here's another interesting tid bit about Winsor McCay, the grand daddy of animation from Cartoonist Profiles.

Enjoy,

 

Well there you have it, here's McCay's early animated film, How a Mosquito Operates (1912) based on the comic strip in the article above...

Here's a link to another article I found in that same box.

Thank You!

Lou Bunin, Puppet Master

Before the internet was around, I started collecting articles about animation and animators, everything I could learn more about the art form. Recently I am going through the many boxes I have packed over the years and converting them to digital files and chucking the originals. 

Here's a very interesting article by John Canemaker about stop motion pioneer, puppeteer and artist, Lou Bunin.

Enjoy!

 

Hope that was worth saving all these years for you to discover. If it was, leave a comment below to let me know if I should post more rare findings like this one.

Here's another thing I found in that same box you might enjoy.

Thanks,

Jim
