Disney's Nine Old Men Flip Books

I saw on Cartoon Brew this morning that Pete Doctor is organising the release of 9 flip books, one for each of the nine old men that will contain a sequence from one of their most well-known and best-loved line drawn animations. I'm very excited about this because i've been looking out for animation flip books for about 6 months now, as something i want to start collecting so these will be a fantastic addition.

They are currently available on Amazon to pre-order and will become available from 18th September 2012 to buy. The price (in USA) seems to have changed slightly though as CB stated it at $37.42 whereas now it is $36.70. The UK price is still £34.02. I will get my order in soon!

Turning

An very nice and interesting short film I found today by Karni & Saul. I've only seen a handle of what they do but so far I love their work and the animation style.

I thought this was brilliant!

A regular night of dream delivering turns into a literal nightmare when a boy's book of ancient mythology comes alive.



The extra footage here is so inspiring, and gives a little insight into the school: Brigham Young University's Center for Animation.
