A block of classic Fleischer Studios shorts, restored by Jane Fleischer Reid, will screen on July 12; live music from Charlie Judkins will accompany the show.
Mark your calendars! A screening of Out of the Inkwell: The Silent Cartoons of Max Fleischer, which features a block of Fleischer Studios shorts restored by Jane Fleischer Reid, will be shown at the Museum of the Moving Image (MoMI) in Queens, New York on July 12. The project features live musical accompaniment from Charlie Judkins.
First produced in 1918, the “Out of the Inkwell” series featured a mix of live-action, stop-motion, and rotoscope, which was invented by Max Fleischer with his brother Dave as the model for Koko the Clown.
The screening is followed by an in-depth discussion of Fleischer Studios moderated by Aaron Augenblick with Stephen DeStefano, Mark Newgarden, and J.J. Sedelmaier.
Tickets for the event are $17.50; $12 for seniors and students; $10 for youth aged 3–17; and free for MoMI members.
