Jack Plotnick and Disney built a House of the Future

Jack Plotnick is an actor who began making short videos when he wasn't acting. During Covid, he began a long term project where he began playing the background parts in several Disney TV documentaries from the late1950s. "The Wonderful World of Color" was a series of television programs which appeared nationwide on TV sets all over America every Sunday night. Occasionally, Walt Disney would take you behind the scenes to show the making of his new amusement park, Disneyland!

Fast forward to the beginning of Covid, Jack Plotnick comforts himself in old Disney episodes until one day, using only i-Movie, a tripod and a green screen, he created a 45 minute video beginning with artist Mary Blair, who is tired of working on Disney artwork and soon discovers a sinister plot about the real creation DisneyWorld! 

Here is a recent interview about Jack's previous projects and how he combine his short Disney videos into "Disney made a House of the Future: The Movie"

Hey Everybody, It is a new year for animation. KPop Demon Hunters swept the Annie Awards and the Oscars are next. I have a few interview leads which I am work on for future interviews for you to enjoy and learn something from.

Here are some reason episodes you might have missed...

I have started a new series comparing the animatic storyboards to the final animation. Below is Tex Avery's final cartoon where I combine the storyboards frames with the final cartoon.

Cartoon storyboard and final film comparison for "Shhhhh"

Most people never see the storyboards from an animated film. The boards are created to show how the story fits together and are the blueprints to the final film. I recently came across these storyboard thumbnail drawings fromTex Avery, who rough out some of the gags in his animated cartoon called "Shhhhh" from 1955.

The film is about a nervous little man who is told by his doctor that he needs to live a quiet lifstyle or he may explode. Of course, this is the set up of many gags where he is trying to avoid loud noises and situations.

Here are the first two rough storyboards of the film. See if you can understand what is happening, then take a look at the video below. 

In the video below, the thumbnail drawings on the left and the final cartoon on the right to show how the rough ideas became final poses in the completed cartoon. 

As you can see not all the gags were in these thumbnail storyboards. I hope to post more storyboard/final film comparisons in the near future. Let me know if you enjoyed this video and want to see more.
