Sometimes, when describing that look to others within the animation industry, it was always referred to as "you know, that UPA style". Amid went forward with the notion that yes, it deserves its place in pop culture, and was able to create an incredible book devoted to that look. Sometimes it's also referred to as "more stylized" or "flat" - and if asked for more description, the term "mid-century" usually does the trick. So, you were on the right track when describing Sasek's work in your other post. <br /><br />Speaking of Sasek, I started up a whole Flickr group devoted to this look & style when it came to anything produced or published for children during the 40's to the 60's called <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/theretrokid" rel="nofollow">The Retro Kid</a>. Books, games, ads, etc. All vintage and all amazing to look at. I think you'll dig it.<br /><br />Again, thanks for the mention!Ward Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05013085293679968596noreply@blogger.com
