Man Alive!

A couple of weeks ago, Jenny Lerew, posted a storyboard drawing from the UPA short MAN ALIVE! on her site Blackwing Diaries. I just came across an old clipping I had from a 1952 Life Magazine. Sorry that it’s so yellowed and beaten up, but you can still make it out. The pictures were spread out over five pages, and were obviously printed with a limited palette. I didn’t try to adjust for the yellowed paper.

    Those are fantastic! I’d wondered if the film was entirely animated(it was nominated for an Oscar in the documentary, rather than animation category)–I guess so. What a neat thing to have saved.
    Did you notice they’re going to be showing it in March here in L.A.?
