Tortoise And The Hare - Part 2

 

As previously mentioned in Part 1, I had a little flipbook with my tortoise and the hare project.

You'll be seeing the rest on paper.

Enjoy!

Yep. All finished. Hoped you really liked it. 

I would like to talk about what went into this cartoon.

This cartoon is paying homage to those Tex Avery fairytale cartoons. The beginning is sorta like Torotise Beats Hare (1941) mixed in with Red Hot Riding Hood (1943). 

While talking about Tex Avery, I also love the Bob Clampett animation. His best films were from 1943-1946. It's so sad that he never got a chance to make more cartoons after 1946, he would've been unstoppable like Chuck Jones.

Falling Hare is probably my most influential out of Clampett's cartoons, that doesn't mean it's the best though. I just love the animation when Bugs fights with the gremlin. 

If they won't allow me using dynamite in the actual cartoon, I'm going to be pissed.

This is also the first time we get to see Cedric The Cat. He's one of my main characters. And this is my first drawing of him.

Well, that's it for now. Here's the official poster. It's also inspired by those outstanding classic animated posters. 

Tortoise And The Hare - Part 1

 Ladies and gentleman, and also pets too, introducing the first finished Artmania cartoon....

You'll expect a different sidestory of how the rabbit actually defeated the turtle, and is also hilarious, fast-moving and nerve-wracking for all ages!

This is obviously a re-telling of the classic fable, The Tortoise and The Hare. As it tells the important moral slow and steady wins the race, or is it, really?

I love a little bit of fairytales and nursery rhymes myself, I even like it a little more when their funny parodies. Disney, Warner Bros and even MGM have been doing it for 90 years.

The most well-known re-telling of Torotise and The Hare was the Silly Symphony version. I really liked it but I don't think it was that outstanding. Max Hare impressing the girl rabbits just goes on for too long. 

But how do we fix that?

By this!!!

How The Hare Dood It!

This title was similar to Tex Avery's The Early Bird Dood It, I just gotta love that title. 

My future for making cartoons is bringing back the 4th wall breaks. Remember when those were just hilarious? 

Next, I will show you what the cartoon is going to be like with the little book I made. 

It has a few pages. Surprisingly I ran out of room, tomorrow you'll see the rest of the storyboard drawings on paper.

(Apologize for my hands distracting the pictures, I had to hold my phone somehow since this book isn't folded that well)

That's all I have. No more pages, even though there's still more.

Remember how annoying the gremlin was in Falling Hare? That's what my tortoise is like. He's a shameless cheater.

I also love those cartoons like with Red Hot Riding Hood when the wolf gets fed up by the same story told over and over. 

These characters can be so relatable and observed that I just miss these types of animated films.

Modern animated films nowadays are basically emotional, or there isn't any logical dialogue. 

I remember when I was in middle school, a teacher would show us these type of films, and I can tell you, they were boring and nothing special.

Part 2 Tomorrow
