JOURNEY BACK TO OZ (Filmation, 1974)
Thought I'd share an interesting find. I don't own many original production backgrounds. My animation art collection is primarily Disney cels.
But this week I acquired an original hand-painted master background from Filmation's JOURNEY BACK TO OZ. And of course my first thought was to share it with you.
I have scanned it, so what you are seeing here is not a digital recreation, but a scan of the actual artwork!
Below, I have included a screen grab of this background in a single frame of the film. Interesting to see how various video production monkeys get their hands on films and ruin the integrity of the color palettes. I have seen this time and time again. Perhaps the most distressing is early animated classics with the color intensities so ramped up they look like a different film. who thinks this is really necessary to sell DVDs?
While not an animation classic, this production took nearly a decade for Filmation to complete. This particular B/G definitely has a kinship to Eyvind Earle's work... even if it is a distant cousin.
Interesting...

Nice find. This is a perfect example of color manipulation/distortion. The real BG is emerald, but the DVD frame looks like split-pea soup.
