Animator and experimental film artist Norman McLaren talks with film historian William Sloan, and introduces excerpts from his work to illustrate his ideas and techniques. Scottish-born McLaren, who made his home in Canada and was an early member of the National Film Board of Canada, was a pioneer in short films using various film tricks, animation, painting on film and handmade sound tracks. Film excerpts here include sections from: "Boogie Doodle", "Loop and Dots", "Begone Dull Care", "Rythmetic", "Poulette Grise", "Neighbors", "Canon", "Pas de Deux". These films illustrate experiments with a wide variety of techniques.

George Dunning -artist, illustrator, film animator - explains his work, draws, tours his studio in England showing how film animation is produced from hand-drawn cells. Many examples of his pictures and films, including "The Flying Man", "Damon the Mower," and the Beatles animated film "The Yellow Submarine". Topics: Techniques that transform drawings and paintings into film --exposure sheets, levels where characters should appear, "peg" animation. Dunning shows how he achieved sequential drawings for "Damon the Mower." His acknowledged debt to Canadian filmmaker Norman McLaren. 1973.

COMPUTERS
JOHN WHITNEY INTERVIEW: *****John Whitney I have energized relay here and this is this is the Bank of amplifiers that drive the server modem of the system Narrator the computer, which created the star gate character in the film 2001 was developed by the man behind these glasses, John Whitney, is three sons and his brother James have all used his machines to make computer films. The witnesses are not inhibited by the specter of giant computer companies. They build their own. John Whitney They're hardly to be called computers because they're really specialized problem solvers. They were computers that were designed to compute only on one kind of an equation. For many years, I had been doing straight animation using the hand drawing techniques or primitive forms of manipulation of artwork in one way or another some of the things that Norman McLaren has done, in fact, I've drawn on directly on film. And but it was only in the mid 50s, when I began to see these devices that it became clear that there were great possibilities for developing animation machines that would manipulate design in ways that could never be done by hand, as drawing almost a perfect circle here, and now many cycles later, it might be drawing a straight line path. The fact that it's putting this kind of motion, as a series of images on one motion picture frame at a time means that it gets on the screen in quite a different way than it is here. The fact that this is a circle pattern does not mean that the image generated by this pattern will be a circle on the screen, it'll be some sort of a complex overlay pattern of a whole series of circles, or some sort of a flowing Halftone Pattern possibly. I'm also working with the modern digital computer systems through their my research grant from IBM. And there I am using a completely electrical solid state electronic system, which involves no mechanical moving parts to speak. And there, I get to the heart of the problem. There are mathematical equations that generate very, very elegant images, very, very elegant designs.
