In this video I explain my view on teaching
slang and share the first of several mini
lessons. Dialogues in this series of lessons
are broken down to show the expressions,
changes in pronunciation, and changes in
grammar that are common in informal English.

My favorite cartoon short as a child and 35
years later it still makes me laugh.
The cat has always been my favorite part. :p
Done as a one-shot, with all original
characters who never appeared in any other
MGM cartoon, Symphony is pretty much an
anomaly in Avery's canon. What makes it even
more so is the fact that Avery hired designer
Tom Oreb to design all the characters and
layout for the entire film. Just for this one
cartoon. That's it.
Oreb had been working at Disney pretty
consistantly at the time, but left the
company in the early-50's. Oreb worked with
Avery at MGM for this one cartoon and then
went back to Disney where he designed
characters for such projects as Toot,
Whistle, Plunk & Boom, Sleeping Beauty and
One Hundred and One Dalmations. Tags :texaverytomorebsymphonyinslangmgmcartoonshort
