Characters in 1930 cartoons, even at Disney, came toward the camera, which must have been a pretty cool effect in theatres. They do in this cartoon. I really like the designs. First, we get an octopus.
Look out! In the barrel! It’s a...a something.
Some kind of fish swims in from the distance.
The cartoon features more fun-designed sea creatures, as well as musical skeletons and drunken turtles whose heads zoom toward the camera for a nice finish. The music and actions are well-synchronised by Gene Rodemich.
That 'something' looks like a dogfish (of course Waffles would be afraid of that).
ReplyDeleteDon and Waffles look like their contemporaries Tom and Jerry (not the famed cat and mouse duo) in animal costumes.
