A Cheerful Concert

1935 · 4 min

"As Prague’s sole animation studio, IRE-Film depended on international models for inspiration; the influences of Disney and the Fleischers are plainly seen in Veselý koncert (A Cheerful Concert), which promotes Telefunken radios while a loose-limbed cartoon orchestra struggles to play amid the wildlife of the summer outdoors." — Kirk McDowell

"Všechno pro trhanec animates a recipe with anthropomorphic ingredients. Gasparcolor, introduced to the Dodals by experimental animator Oskar Fischinger, is briefly on display. Though Gasparcolor added a new dimension to IRE-Film’s already vibrant animation, the complicated—and expensive—color process brought with it a host of challenges. Because the process required repeated exposures, the workflow had to be altered to allow three color records to be made for each frame. It is easy to see why color was often reserved for a film’s final shot." — Kirk McDowell
