Description
So, I managed to connect the Surface RT to a printer... yay!This is a traditional pencil drawing line art of one of the most interesting character designs from an old hand-drawn movie, ''The Point!'' It seems relatively obscure, the animation is not top-notch but neat nevertheless. This is one of those movies you thought was a made-up memory, or a dream when you were a kid. Famous musician and songwriter --- Harry Nilsson --- I believe was the one who came up with the notion for this movie. It has valuable lessons, for it was written with children in mind, and it shows.
The full film is not available for watching anywhere online, but a school play of the film was recorded by some school, and placed on YouTube. In my subjective viewpoint, it is just as interesting as the film. Since I cannot view website URLs on the Microsoft Surface RT, I will tell you that you can type ''The Point, part 1/5, part 2/5'', ect. into the YouTube search bar, and the you can find a play recorded in a college, uploaded by a username called ''theblackistone'' (one letter 's' in the username.) I believe a YouTube channel called ''AniMat's Classic Reviews'' has uploaded a review of the film, with more animated footage from the actual hand-drawn product than anywhere else you will find free of charge on the Internet.
The ''tree man'', as my memory recalls, was my favorite character concept from the movie. It is the way his body was designed. He also reminded me of a ''Blue Meanie'', from the Beatles' hand-drawn animated film, ''The Yellow Submarine''. The character proportions for human beings in the Yellow Submarine film -- and the blue meanies themselves -- is my absolute favorite character design style of all time.
