Jonny Quest Documentary Pt. 16: The Music of Hoyt Curtain

For those of you tracking this documentary - I was searching for information on composer Hoyt Curtain, and I stumbled onto this entire affair.  What a treasure trove of actiony-goodness!  This part of the documentary includes actual recordings of the sessions that provided us with the pulse-pounding themes found in so many of those H-B shows.

Enjoy.

Jonny Quest Documentary Pt. 8: Hadji Joins the Quest Party

Jonny Quest Documentary Pt. 7 : The Process of Animation

This is a chapter of the documentary that I feel will be of help to not only animators but to VFX artists... the backgrounds used on Quest set the tone for much of the limited animation action. Note the staging of the background which follows the classic "foreground / midground / background" design.

Jonny Quest Documentary Pt. 5 Spiraling Costs and Artist Trouble

The plot thickens and the stakes are raised as JONNY QUEST behind-the-scenes becomes as dramatic and hurried as the action onscreen.

And at the end of this episode we get a clue as to how Wildey and co. started using their budgetary and design restrictions to their advantage and create some new visual storytelling motifs.
