Experimenting with Soundtracks - "Rush Job"


Originally a six week project in 1998, using a DOS animation version of "Autodesk Animator Pro," this collection of 2800 frames was initially paired with a 1917 recording of a Chopin Waltz composed in the 1830s.  When first uploaded to test the limits of a Facebook posting, FB said, "Oh that music violates copyright!" based on some parallel world regulations.  

So I went with a 1911 performance of Victor Herbert performing his own work, "Scherzo."   

Thought I'd test the limits on uploads to Blogger...

Because EVERY DAY is McCay Day!

Found an Edison recording from 1909 with selections from the operetta "Little Nemo" by Victor Herbert's.  Of course it just HAD to be blended with McCay's animation from 1911!!
