Description
Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol Scrooge Production Cel, and Background Layout (UPA, 1962). Through Magoo's bumbling yet endearing portrayal of Scrooge, the special captures the essence of redemption, kindness, and the power of change. Here's a terrific production cel featuring Scrooge from near the end of the televised holiday special when actor Magoo takes a bow - with his back to the audience - Classic Magoo! The scene was animated by John Walker and can be viewed near the 50:44 time stamp. The image of Scrooge can also be found on page 131 of Darrell Van Citters' book, Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol: The Making of the First Animated Christmas Special. Along with the hand-painted 12 field production cel is a beautifully detailed background layout depicting the interior of the Cratchit home. Layouts are usually drawn from storyboards which define the action and perspective in the scene. Layout drawings are then given to the background painters to color and complete the visual style. Background layout artists take them to the next level by defining the detail and perspective. We see the finished background near the 47:08 mark when Scrooge goes to the Cratchit home bearing Christmas gifts and a turkey. Production design and layouts were done by "Corny" Cole, Lee Mishkin, Marty Murphy, Tony Rivera, Shirley Silvey, Bob Singer, Richard Ung, and Sam Weiss. Through the intricate designs, and carefully crafted compositions, this brilliant production art offers a window into the creative process. It invites viewers to appreciate the dedication, craftsmanship, and imagination that went into crafting every frame of this cherished holiday tradition. With light edge wear and toning, this artwork is presented in Very Good condition. COA included.Auction Info
