UPA was at its best when it combined design and stylized animation. Nowadays only the design is studied. Thanks a million for putting this up!

Hope you had fun in San Diego. I'll make sure you get one of those dvds with your copy of the Blast. <b>Noah</b>: Or perhaps Ohira Shinya is the Rod Scribner of his time :-) But you're right, the best animators of the Fifties, such as Rod Scribner, Emery Hawkins and Bobe Cannon, put a lot of themselves into their work. Their animation always has a spark of individuality that makes it a lot of fun to watch. Sadly, that type of personal creative animation is all but non-existent in contemporary American animation, though it's alive and well in Japan as I experienced in Masaaki Yuasa's incredible feature MIND GAME.

In terms of keeping his own personal interests invested in the animation he creates. I always think back to the kissing scene he animated in Coal Black. God damn!

Sorry I missed you in San Diego and L.A. too, but things were just ultra crazy. Really looking forward to recieving my copy of Animation Blast and Cartoon Modern. Just wish i could have nabbed one of those DVD's you were so kind to throw together for the con. That was all sorts of cool fun Amid - don’t think I have ever seen it before either.
