Media: Mike Lah and Quartet Films

This post is just the tip of the iceberg... see the bonus reason on our The Top Ten Reasons To Support The A-HAA for links to more great posts featuring animation art.

You might notice that the Animation Archive website looks a little different. We moved things around so both the blog and the static site are combined onto one single page now. Bookmark this page and tell your friends about it.

Jason Jones and Marc Deckter were in today. They helped catalog the Clampett cartoons and enter them into the filmographic database. We also fired up the scanner and captured our first batch of drawings for the media database.

It's fitting that the first artwork entered into the database is by Mike Lah. Mike was Tex Avery's right hand man, and was a good friend of ASIFA-Hollywood, serving as Board Member and Treasurer. When he passed away, Mike's family donated the archives of his studio to ASIFA-Hollywood.

Here are some samples of drawings from commercials directed by MIke Lah that we entered into the database today...
