Its a shame that even after all these years, animation still hasn't really had any serious projects released in the main stream. At least in the west. And certainly in the UK and US.
I would watch a 2D animated movie every single time over a 3D animated one, there's just something so much more natural about 2D animation, especially hand-drawn. I've only ever enjoyed Pixar movies as much as cel animation, but mostly just the old classic Pixar.
"The Little Island" is quite a bit like McCracken's works, though the pace is pretty plodding by comparison. Was the clip that I criticized in part 1 for the film which eventually became "Thief and the Cobbler?" (Thought I heard someone say "Nasrudin") If so, MAN that movie went through a helluva genesis! Regardless, thanks for yet another fascinating obscurity! Dunno how you guys keep digging this stuff up!
The animation at the beginning reminds me of Craig Mc.Cracken's(the guy who created the Powerpuff Girls & Fosters Home for imaginary friends oh & Wander over Yonder). animation
Did you ever come across Dick's Ying Tong Song he did for Spike Milligan - we all went & watched the shorts with Spike in Soho Square - can't find any trace of it on YT?

A & K Animations ) I hope to change that.
That's great!
@@steamboatwill3.367 I've never heard of them and can't seem to find anything on Google, which films have they made?

Wow! What an amazing, inspirational film!
Thank you immensely for uploading these videos so that the rest of us can see them too! :)

At the end all this even he lost his precious project. He did what he truly love which was animation

Only 2 parts? I was hoping this would go on longer. I like Richard Williams documentaries. Oh well.

Its called "limited animation". It was a style developed by UPA.

7:00 I'm pretty sure my wife would get annoyed with me after a while if I did this to her all the time.
