GRIZZLY PEAR

written snapshots

Fantasia, Stokowski, 1940

Of course the music is great.
But it used to be accompanied by grainy VHS images on a small CRT.

Now, high definition streaming on the in-law’s 75″ TV.

The main characters are much as I remember.
But those backgrounds.
Now you can tell when the animators went for a sharp line.
Or meant to create texture.
Such detail!

Intoxicating!

Fantasia fit perfectly with our recent obsession with music animation. I’m question our new dinner habits. But at least this is highbrow stuff.

Disney+ has a quirk where their volume plays much quieter than other streaming channels. So we finally hooked up the TV to the amplifier. Now we have high quality sound to go with the high def image.

Living the high life.
