Rizla Cigarette Roller

Neapolitan Yellow

E' stata particolarmente felice questa edizione di Napoli Comicon: sia per l'enorme affluso di visitatori ( i cancelli di entrata sono anche rimasti chiusi per non creare sovraffollamento) sia perché il giallo è il mio colore preferito! Ad ogni modo il salone partenopeo si conferma essere una delle più belle e interessanti manifestazioni dedicate al fumetto e all'animazione con un vasto e nutrito programma di incontri che non teme certo confronti con altri avvenimenti di questo genere. A mio avviso è giusto dare spazio a gare di cosplayer or events but do not forget that in a cultural event of this type that should be more emphasis is, logically, the comic! I always found it bizarre to see the stand of goodies, candles and fashion models next to conferences on major authors of comics. Inside the prestigious Castel S. Elmo can not clash with the sellers of cotton candy and pleasant despite the coming and going of boys ready to compete in a tournament by sword foam or clothing as the heroes of an anime, Salon International Comics gives precedence to all guests with a variety of comics-related meetings, conferences and exhibitions. And for me that I love this medium because of clouds NapoliComicon is the show for you.
And it is for a reason not to be underestimated: the perfect organization and the competence and kindness of the staff working there that year. My estimate is always Luca Boschi (the eclectic cultural director) and Claudio Curcio (Director General of the brave) and my thanks for the hospitality goes to all staff: Claudia, Angela, Federica (involved to gracious' hospitality) to Antonio (talented driver who has run around me and Bill Willingham to Naples), and Alina Alina (What beautiful exhibits!) Joseph Colella (always balance to the animated film industry) and also thanks to Simone Salis ( My companion weekend is young satirist) e. .. to everyone else! Among
tanti stand, tra tante valide novità, tra tante esposizioni mi preme ricordare "No-vizi" , un valido allestimento di vignette di satira ideato e curato da Mario Natangelo che, bravissimo vignettista anch'egli, era accompagnato da autori del calibro di Ellekappa, Giorgio Franzaroli, Marco Tonus, Vincino,Riccardo Marassi e altri. Un "bravi!" a tutti, considerando inoltre che in questo periodo essere se si è autori di satira è un po' come aver contratto la gonorrea.
E dall'alto di Castel S.Elmo tra un venticello Partenopeo e una panoramica del golfo erano allestite le mostre di originali di Leo Ortolani e il suo celeberrimo Rat-man ( se volete sapere cosa predilige a colazione Ortolani, scrivetemi!) , By Massimo Carnevale and Tanino Liberatore: with him in the morning, I shared the waiting bus that took us to Comicon and his gentle wife we \u200b\u200bquibble about the various differences of life between Italy and France, for end up talking about copyright with Ivo Milazzo. One Sunday morning to remember, anzichèno! Mica happen every day.
But keep in mind is undoubtedly the reason why I was invited to NapoliComicon. Since this year the color was yellow, mostly it was decided to carve out a space for the family of world famous yellow, or "The Simpsons" and host of the exception was Phil Ortiz, designer of the comics and animator of the TV series. But besides being of unquestionable professionalism and skill is undeniably cute! I was with him to share a meeting with the public, to quibble Simpson, cartoons, TV movies, Disney movies and anything else and we improvised a nice duet where I play Krusty the Clown and he answered me in Italian with English Dan Castellaneta same voice that would do when he has dubbed a cynical clown. And, icing on the cake, we exchanged the gifts of a pen! I was also invited to sign autographs with him but fate cynical and cheat but especially a train back to Rome prevented me from doing it!

How To Get The Silver Puffle

Liberation

April 25. Resistance! And we will try to hold on to it! (Maybe soon pass it. Maybe!)
A quick vignette so as not to forget how to draw. That satire is not my forte but as of this time the cartoonists have looked bad if they had gonorrhea, I like to swim against the tide.

The Smurfs on TV

Waiting for 3D feature film of "The Smurfs", soon (?) To the cinema, it is worth remembering the other transpositions in video of the little blue men. And I do not speak of the infamous series of Hanna-Barbera Productions, but the original series in black and white Belgian sent in Italy, years ago.
's right, before the flamboyant and sometimes unfaithful series color broadcast by Mediaset, in 1968, the Smurfs were guests of the wonderful TV show "Heroes of cardboard, a program entirely devoted to details such as Asterix cartoons, Popeye and Superman Study Fleisher and others, animated series and movies that tried to to approach an audience of enthusiasts rather than to an audience of children. The design was by Nicoletta Artom (Rai to the same official who is responsible for the purchase of "Grendizer" in Italy) and to present the program was a young Lucio Dalla who sang the famous song that mentioned "the letter X".
The first series of the Smurfs was none other than the series that created the TVA Dupuis in 1959 as a result of the rapid success of the comic Peyo. At the beginning The animation technique used was quite crude as was to be "move" a whole range of Smurf figurines of paper in various poses and sizes: the facilitator, in fact, the figures moved with pliers and filmed the scene in detail. 9 episodes were made of about 13 minutes (including 2 in color) taken from comic album. It would be interesting if some publishing house propose this series on DVD.
Later in 1975, Dupuis and Belvision Paris co-produce a feature film, "The flute with six Smurfs", with that speed dubbing the voices of the Smurfs with a curious sound. This movie has arrived in Italy, through the private television era and was later redubbed with le voci dei doppiatori della serie tv Americana.
