Childwood: Mary L. Tale; Uli Meyer On His Day With Ronald Searle


Update: Fellow director and animator Uli Meyer is doing a series of posts on his day with Ronald Searle. Image © Uli Meyer

Original entry from Wednesday: Some weeks ago, I was working on a soft redesign of the Mary L. Tale character (aka Timba Tale) out of our Childwood project... her hair turned btw from red to green due to some story changes.





BTW, here's a recent pic of my fellow 2D animation class... lots of talent here:

    Wow! I'd so would love to be a part of that group. It would be a real pleasure working with such talent.

    Anyway, how are you doing? Your work keep on improving. The last Childwood poster has the richest colors while employing only earthtones and lots of darks.
