Viewing Notes

For animation Monday DKUTV programmed Castle of Cagliostro and this film, a Czech animated adaptation of the Daniel Defoe novel. Tuned in for this b/c I was unfamiliar with this film which combines stop motion with 2D cell animation and static illustrations to tell this classic story. Neat stuff. I’m a fan of the story so it was cool to see another version of it done in this manner.
