All Watchers

Don't you Just Love the Internet? (And YouTube?)

Mon Aug 17, 2009, 6:18 PM
I searched on Cartoon Brew (which, by the way, is a great cartoon and animation blog that takes a professional look at animation) and I came across a cartoon done by Toei Animation (famous for Sailor Moon, Cyborg 009, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, and much more) from way back in the 1950s, when they were a brand-new company, ready to become the Japanese equivalent of Disney. This one, Koneko no Rakugaki, or "Kitty's Graffiti", seems so familiar, yet so different. As it said in the blog entry on Cartoon Brew,

In [Koneko no Rakugaki] the face of the main character is not shown from a three-quarter or front view until well over two minutes in the cartoon, even though he’s onscreen for much of that time. I can’t think of a single example of when that’s happened in a Hollywood theatrical short.

Watch it on the embedded videos at this [link]

I'm a jack of all trades basically. I try my hand at art, video games, writing, yoyoing, cooking, origami, songwriting, inventing, constructing, gardening, among other things I've tried over the years.

I think of myself as a geek first, then an artist, then a political follower, then a punk enthusiast/follower, then a general music enthusiast, and so on, but I can change the order a lot depending on my mood.

Likes: Retro Video Games, Obama, Gourmet Food, The Nostalgia Critic, Cartooning, Punk, Chocolate, and more.

Dislikes: Most Pop, Fast Food, Rush Limbaugh, Hateful People, War, and more. (But not much more.)

Hey, nice to meet you too. I've been busy though, since the day after the meet, I started a college course at Parsons New School for Design. But luckily, today, I have less demanding work.

Mhmm. I'm starting my second summer course next week, so the two overlap for this month. Which will leave my with night classes every weeknight.
