| Tony White ~ "Hokusai - An Animated Sketchbook" |
 |
This was my first ever... and still my
favorite... short animated film! I created it
in my spare time while I was still a
director/animator at the Richard Williams
Studio in London during the late 1970's. I
actually started the film after we had
completed 'A Christmas Carol', when I was
Richard Williams' own personal assistant at
the time. 'Carol' went on to win the first of
Dick's three Oscars. When my own 'Hokusai'
film won a British Academy Award I moved on
to set-up the 'Animus Productions' animation
studio... a creative entity I led for a
further 20 award-winning years. The film
itself was inspired by the wonderful
sketchbooks of Hokusai. When I saw them I
realized that this artist was indeed a true
animator at heart... he just didn't have the
knowledge or the technology to be one in his
lifetime. I therefore sought to bring his
drawings to life for him, as homage to his
genius.
