GoKawiilAnimation Obsessive newsletter details Maurice Noble's design work on 1957's 'What's Opera, Doc?'
A Sunday edition of the Animation Obsessive newsletter examines how designer Maurice Noble shaped the look of Chuck Jones' 1957 Bugs Bunny short 'What's Opera, Doc?'. The piece notes the film cost $35,510, took seven weeks instead of the usual five, used a pre-recorded score and ballet-inspired movement, and required Jones to draw nearly 500 pose sketches, far more than typical productions.
