Around 1975 I recall seeing a two part program titled (approximately)
THE TENANTS OF TERMITE FLATS. It was part of a series called Camera 3
which appeared at 11 or 11:30 am on Sunday mornings on ABC. It was a profile
of the people who formed the Warner's animation unit. Termite Flat was
the rickety building they were happily exiled to on the Warner's lot
and generally left alone to do what they loved. What was special about
this program was that all the directors were still alive at the time.
Sadly Tex Avery died shortly afterwards. He was responsible for the
some of the wildest animation ever produced. His trademark was stretching
characters completely out of shape, eyes popping out, etc. The last
memorable work he did was create the classic RAID! tv commercials.
