Description:

A wonderful early entry in Max Fleischer's "Out Of The Inkwell" series featuring Ko Ko the Clown. The combination of cartoon animation and live action is every bit as impressive today as it was when this film was first released 86 years ago.

This is amazing. I can't imagine how long this could have taken to make. Another thing i can't imagine; is how we have such complex, easy to use, and advanced animating tools...yet we can't even start to replicate how elegant and awesome these shorts are.

In fact 1921 is rather ancient..animation in its most rudimentary form only became evident around 1900..with inventions by Windsor McCay and Emile Cohl.These guys were full on pioneers,way before Hannah Barbera or Walt Disney.

Koko the Clown was created when Max Fleischer tested out his new invention (the rotoscope) on his younger brother, Dave Fleischer.

1921 ain't ancient. This cartoon is very clever and nutty. More so than the junk I see now.

You are SO right! Computer-assisted animation seems much less compelling than movie cartoons hand-drawn the "old-fashioned" but timeless way!

What really surprised me in this cartoon series was that Fleischer did nearly all of the work of these early films. He wrote, animated, produced and directed all of them.
