Who's color in 1940?
-
There are consistently 12 spooks in this film, and if they're grouped, it is almost always in 6's or 3's. He put more thought into the symbolism in this than we realize
-
@dadautube - It's called "Pas de Deux", and McLaren used an optical printer to create multiple images of the dancers, breaking down each of their movements into its individual fragments---essentially allowing us to see the dancers' live-action movements as an animator would.

Agreed! I don't even like Fantasia. In terms of animation being an art form of expression through motion, Fantasia is a snooze-fest of pretty but boring paintings that happen to move on the screen. I'll take Len Lye, Norman McLaren or Paul Driessen over Disney any day!

Rutheeyesofachild, you and your wacky "stupid ppl list :)" are at it again...
I do agree that the Surrealfilmgeek's question is a bit suspicious, this film was not made "WELL before fantasia". Fantasia was released in 1940 and it had been in production years before "Spook Sport" was released in 1939. These two films probably had no influence over each other. The conncept of abstract animation set to music was not a new one, Oskar Fischinger had been working for over ten years by this time.
