This is an intense Rosetta Stone for animators to me!
Read from Twitter via @johnlechner and @BonnieAdamson
A Walt Disney 1935 memo on training their animators. It's a tradition that is being kept alive even today, and this is his planning proposal for this, but he touches on everything an animator needs, and reflects on why their animation was always so awesome. Something you can see all over the industry today. I had heard about this from many animation artists, but reading this piece makes it all magically fall in place, therefore, that's why I think its a Rosetta stone discovery for me.
[link]Well worth reading 8 pages (its scanned original pages, as well as transcription in the web page).
I'd like to thank the original "posting author" of the "Letters of Note" blog Shaun Usher.
