hey john,great post as usual. The butt walk is definitely a hilarious gag...reminds me of another moment from a tex avery cartoon called "rock-a-bye bear"...the bull dog runs on his ass cheeks while holding stuff in both hands and feet...the first time i saw that, i laughed harder than i ever have at a cartoon.

Forgive me drawing on the image but I notice if you scrub through that animation you can see two complimentary arcs, one following the movement of Daffys' butt, the other following the Pelicans' beak. It almost looks like a smile..maybe thats part of why it feels so good.[IMG]http://www.graphite9.com/BeautifulArcs.jpg[/IMG]

Oh and this OT but I was tuning in and out, mostly out, of AN EXTREMELY GOOFY MOVIE. Oh boy ! The tude !!!!! I like how they wanted us to belive a serious lament from Goofy. Also how they take Goofy's design and water down to all sorts of tudey characters like Max. And the animation for every single character was the same ! Stock movement after stock movement ! I feel sorry for the poor artists

I love that clip! Two great pieces of animation in the same scene. Who knows what other gags or "easter eggs" Clampett hid in his cartoons.

just wanted to offer a post idea: talking about cartoon animals that walk on 2 legs... i was just thinking about disney and how they started with the successful mickey, donald, and goofy then they started making only animals that walked in their natural way until bedknobs and broomsticks and Robin Hood, and then went back to normal animal behavior after that. as a kid i loved robin hood but

Sadly, as a kid, my first exposure to this great cartoon was the horrible WB-Seven Arts color remake. Hopefully Turner burned these horrible retraced versions of Bob's early masterpieces.

hi, this isn't totally related to your current post but i was wondering about another Bob Clampett cartoon which i think has some of the most awesome animation ever: "Hare Ribbin" ... unfortunately most of the cartoon has that ugly water effect over the animation... is there, by some miraculous chance, a copy of this cartoon where they shot the animation WITHOUT the water effect?

Great post! Love that double-bounce butt walk. I always liked his choice of "Hava Nagila" to score some of the action sequences too. What an outstanding cartoon with such a generic title, haha.

Drag butttttttt- hey!! Remember that on the Public Enemy dvd, there was a better copy of this cartoon? Haha, because no budget equals no tinkering of the picture.

Huh.Y'know compared to this, Daffy's beak started to get fairly impotent over the years.That's age for ya'.

Wow ! There are so many fun things in Clampett cartoons that you miss the first time you watch them. I really whish I met the man himself. *sigh* You are so lucky John.

Hey John,I just spent the morning copying your lessons into a word document so I could print them off and study them. Your lessons are really helpful and now I don’t have to stare at a monitor all day to work from them. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that its 400 pages long! And that’s just 2006! You know more about Clampett then is physically healthy so if anyone should write a book on

John,Two questions:1. Should one attempt the Flip the Frog run cycle first, or this more complex double-bounce butt walk if trying to learn motion and timing and haven't animated before?2. Did you receive my measley but sincere PayPal donation?- trevor.
