Cal Howard took a bottle of booz into the ink and paint dept. and served the girls some xmas cheer.Somebody told Quimby that Ed was in the I+P dept. getting the gals all boozed up. So Quimby fired Ed on friday, so Ed called Hugh Harmon and was hired on the spot. On monday Tex Avery explained the real story to Quimby and he phoned Ed right away an told him it was all a big mistake and come back to work. Ed explained to Quimby he had already taken a job with Hugh Harmon and could not quite to return to MGM.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-53060674266218327032011-05-11T21:29:14.372-07:002011-05-11T21:29:14.372-07:00Tim, yeah, post whatever you'd like about Ed. ...Tim, yeah, post whatever you'd like about Ed.

I used to live near Ed in Valencia and would go over and have a drink and talk animation with Ed.He told me about how he got into the industry at Disneys, and he did inbetweens for four months while also doing personal pencil tests at night and having Norm Ferguson critique them. After four months he started animating and never looked back. Have more info if you want to hear it.<br />Tim WalkerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-76429273736914515622011-05-07T14:00:48.420-07:002011-05-07T14:00:48.420-07:00How could I forgot the legendary Maurice Chevalier...How could I forgot the legendary Maurice Chevalier on this <i>Loopy de Loop</i> short from 1960?rodineisilveirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751345474415214163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-28599956817134399492011-05-07T13:05:56.332-07:002011-05-07T13:05:56.332-07:00Hi Yowp,

When you find an Ed Love drawing from an MGM scene, the beautiful graphite line is usually Stod's. Ed drew very lightly, almost like toothpick scribbles, with a lot of charts. He animated very fast. I once did cleanup on a spot that Ed animated in a weekend. It took me two weeks to do the drawings that he indicated, and the results looked just like his animation! It's quite likely that Stod did Ed's cleanup on the Charlie Horse as well. These guys were always very loyal and supportive of one another.<br />Mark KauslerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-46559558347982820552011-05-07T02:22:32.374-07:002011-05-07T02:22:32.374-07:00Mark, I loved your commentary on the Charlie Horse...Mark, I loved your commentary on the Charlie Horse cartoon (I have to find it again). Any idea who cleaned up for Ed in that? <br /><br />It's odd hearing about assistants at HB but I keep thinking along the lines of these old cartoons where the animator did everything.<br /><br />Hi, Rod. He's doing Chevalier above. As you know, Chevalier caricatures showed up in '30s cartoons but <em>Gigi</em>, released a year or so before the Loopy cartoon, certainly brought him into the spotlight again after a number of years.Yowphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09264605351878574044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-7778810295101456252011-05-06T16:50:42.493-07:002011-05-06T16:50:42.493-07:00"Yowp-Yowp" Dodsworth,

Among them, Charles Boyer and Jimmy Durante (as we see on the scene above).rodineisilveirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751345474415214163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-44263036172945208962011-05-06T12:41:19.957-07:002011-05-06T12:41:19.957-07:00Very nice article on one of my favorite animators,...Very nice article on one of my favorite animators, Ed Love. Ed doesn't receive credit for his great animation of Pete, Clarabelle Cow and Clara Cluck in Mickey's Amateurs, nor is his work in great Donald Duck shorts such as The Riveter, Bill Posters and Timber (Pete as lumberjack) cited. Ed was a master of forces in animation, thrust and counter-thrust. He worked very rough, but if you study his animation frame by frame, you will be overwhelmed with his inventive drawing, foreshortening (like in Donald's assault on the goat in Bill Posters with a big brush) and overlapping action. His dialog was masterful in Tex Avery's as well as in the early H-B cartoons. He animated Mickey being stepped on by the runaway brooms in the Sorcerer's Apprentice, and animated the great "Ah'm a havin' RED-EYE!" sequence with Buzz Buzzard and Woody in Wild and Woody. His work is an endless joy, the only people that disliked his work were his assistants! I remember Kimi Calvert (great assistant animator) being extremely peeved at Ed over how much work he left for her to do on "The Three Musekteers", a latter-day Hanna Barbera cartoon show.
