Thanks to the YouTube channel Obscure Animation, I am very happy to showcase for the first time
a video from China. And a lovely one it is, too. This award winning 1960 short was the earliest example
The watercolor paintings of Qi Baishi inspired this unique approach to animation, which was reprised
three years later in The Buffalo Boy's Flute. After a decade of Cultural Revolution
had all but destroyed the Chinese animation industry, Te Wei utilized again the technique
for his 1988 masterpiece Feeling from Mountain and Water. Hopefully this is the first
of many new interesting eastern discoveries...
