I haven't had much time to post lately, but here's something to make up for that. Today at Disney they are selling this book to employees:
It's the exhibition catalog from the Tokyo "Art of Disney" exhibit. It's full of page after page of amazing stuff. If I just spent the rest of my blogging life scanning in these pages that would keep me busy!
Sorry I can't buy one for all of you, but I have a feeling some of my co-workers will be putting copies up on ebay soon.
These are story sketches from "Sleeping Beauty", done by Joe Rinaldi (I think). I scanned them pretty high res so have a good look (click to see bigger). The scans are a little funky becasue the book is big and I had to squash it on the scanner to scan it.

Maybe someone can help with the japanese...
Wow - this looks amazing. Does it have sequences of Milt Kahl (and others) animations - ie. his original drawings shown in sequence? I have some photocopies of a french book that looks to be a similar format and shape, but have never been able to find the book to buy! You lucky lucky guys! If anyone finds out where to buy please post here!!! :)
Ed- I will let you know for sure if I ever figure out how you can get one. Check out Paul Briggs' blog to see an animation sequence from the book.
Cheers Mark! As always everything on this blog is much appreciated!
Is it possible for a Disney employee from another area of the company to get one? (hailing from Buena Vista Games)
Nice book!
Sam- I don't know, contact the Disney ARL!
Jenny - I'll post more soon.
Mark- Thanks again for these, and PLEASE DON'T EVER STOP! It's the first place I check EVERYDAY for my "brain feed", so again, Thank you.
My only complaint is this, HOW DARE YOU NOT GET ME ONE OF THOSE TOKYO DISNEY BOOKS!!!!!!
Ok, enough for now.
Zac (still haven't got password)
