Call For Artists- The Thief and the Cobbler Recobbled Cut 5 (10th Anniversary)
Looking for professional artists.
These clips including work by Dennis Van Hout, Kiko Pablo, Garrett Gilchrist, Chris Fern.
From the Richard Williams film The Thief and the Cobbler.

Looking for donations, and additional artists.
It's been ten years since I released The Thief and the Cobbler: Recobbled Cut Mk4, and about twenty-five years since my first experiments restoring Richard Williams' unfinished film.
Two animators - Dennis Van Hout and Kiko Pablo - have produced four new shots for the film, which has convinced me to look into this edit again and do further restoration. I am in the process of making improvements to about twenty minutes of the film.
We are hoping to produce a small amount of additional animation independently, and looking for donations, which would go to these new artists (not to myself).
(I still do not have an HD copy of any full version of the film. About 30 minutes of the Recobbled is in HD from rare film sources, but we haven't been able to source film prints of Arabian Knight, The Princess and the Cobbler, and Richard Williams' workprint "A Moment In Time" - which is held by the Academy of Motion Picture arts and Sciences.)
(I have previously said that a new restoration of the film would be impossible until a complete film source can be acquired. For the moment I've been doing additional animation and restoration using the old SD sources, since no other has turned up.)
Shots:
Garrett Gilchrist: Tack and Yum Yum from Calvert version. Yum Yum's legs new partial animation. Upscaled, tweened. Nanny/Nurse cut out from other scene, composited.
Chris Fern / Garrett Gilchrist: Nanny pokes Brigand in eye. Based loosely on material barely visible in Calvert WIP. Chris Fern animation retouched with additions by Garrett Gilchrist.
Kiko Pablo: New animation, Tack and camel.
Dennis Van Hout: New animation of hands and stems. Flowers from Arabian Knight and workprint.
Dennis Van Hout: New animation, Zigzag and Phido. Based loosely on material barely visible in Calvert WIP. Beginning of scene from Arabian Knight.
Richard Williams: Thief in Minaret, damaged film print restored by Garrett Gilchrist
Richard Williams: Thief on tightrope, unfinished city background finalized and added to pan by Garrett Gilchrist
