Short Animated film by Anime Legend Osamu Tezeka

[Masato]

It's called 'JUMPING':

You know what's weird?

When I was in my last year at animation school, we had some famous canadian animator come in, and we were 'graced' with the honor of pitching our ideas for the final films we had to make.

I was making a story about a frog, and while he didn't really help me with what I was trying to do, he had this great idea about seeing the world from the frog's perspective... and you could see the jumps. And each time he jumps they get bigger and bigger, and each time you land you would see different things... etc etc Basically, he was describing this exact film.

I am just realizing this now, many years later that this was NOT the dude's own idea, he was lifting from this film! Mofo was passing it off as his own, or even worse trying to get me to plagarize it, lol

We didn't learn enough about japanese animation, it was a Disney factory. I didn't learn of japanese stuff till after, can you believe that?

Anyways, here it is. It's pretty cool:
