1973BB011SENDAK MAurice<br />MAX - Where The Wild Things Are Animation 1973<br />A series of seven character sketches of the protagonist Max dressed in his wolf suit intending to show the animators how the figure should move throughout the animated film.<br />Weston Woods Studio under the leadership of Morton Schindel introduced film strips in 1968 and eventually translated popular children's picture books into animated films for American schools. In 1973 he developed a rendition of Sendak's WILD THINGS created under the direction of Gene Deitch in Prague which proved a great success. Sendak put together this study sheet showing a variety of hand and foot gestures head motions &c with both front and partial profile views. Each of the seven sketches he has annotated below then writing a full line of extended text across the bottom: <i>"Note: all of this should be more agitated - more stacato ! - all sharp pointing stabbing gestures - Hitler moves : harsh sharp goose-stepping gestures"</i> with his signature at far right "M Sendak". <br />The drawings are first sketched in pencil and then further developed in ink using a pentel felt tip pen on smooth matte paper. A few copies were photographically reproduced to send to Czechoslovakia for animators to follow but this sheet is the actual artwork. books
