Norman Normal (1968)

흥미로운 사실

Norman Normal is a 1968 animated cartoon short, produced by Warner Bros.-Seven Arts Animation. It was produced as a collaboration between musician Paul Stookey and the studio's animation department. Rather than being released as part of the Looney Tunes or Merrie Melodies series, it was released as a one-time "Cartoon Special".

Production

The theme song, "Norman Normal", was previously featured on Peter, Paul and Mary's album The Peter, Paul and Mary Album (released in 1966). The title character was initially designed by pop artist Milton Glaser, and then refined by animator Volus Jones to create a character that would be easier to animate. It appeared on the shortlist for Best Animated Short at the 40th Academy Awards, but was not nominated.

The character is unique for having no special catchphrases, not participating in any wacky antics, or doing anything typically considered "funny".
