ASIFA Archives the "Disney Studios Artist's Tryout Book," Yesteryear's Handbook for Disney Animators
by Melinda McCrady

A page taken from "Disney Studio Artist's Tryout Book," which has been archived online by The ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Project.

The ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Project has scanned in the rumpled pages of Walt Disney’s training guide for aspiring animators circa 1938. The "Disney Studios Artist's Tryout Book" is fascinating not only because of its representation of timeworn attitudes (women artists, referred to as “girls,” are restricted to the Inkers and Painters department) but also for its insight into the bygone era of classic animation. It’s a must-see for artists and fans alike.
