As a Chinese person that understands the importance of thank you little kitty in Chinese movie history I would never have imagined it had this deep connection to rudolf.
1:58 I wish people would realize that there is a scene where everyone regrets how they treated Rudolph after he returns from his adventure and hears his story WELL BEFORE he proves his nose’s usefulness and become more accommodating of misfits, proving that the message is NOT so problematic. It’s right there, but people refuse to pay attention to it. It’s honestly pretty frustrating.
It's quite heartbreaking to know that a lot of the things we enjoyed as children often end up the result of unpaid unenjoyed labour manipulated by others for the sake of easy profit
Don't be such a Killjoy. There is nothing heartbreaking about this story. Everyone got their due of what was previously agreed upon in their contracts. Just because someone made profit off a project doesn't automatically make it a bad thing. Almost nothing in the modern world would exist without profit motive. The story of the Rudolph TV special and how it was made is a heartwarming tale of kind gentlemen creating a beloved Christmas story for children.
@@VidelxSpopovich Most of the Japanese animators that worked on Rudolph won't get credited until a making-of book in 2001. Too little, too late if you ask me
Wow I had no idea that even stop motion animations that I watched as child was also outsourced... I've been watching Asian crafted content even earlier than I thought :o
Not Christmas or Rudolph related, but the first Rankin Bass production I remembered seeing is their version of The Hobbit. My dad had already shown me some interesting anime, but that movie has always stuck with me. I was around 6-8 I think? I remember him telling me later that they outsourced the animation to japanese animators, which gave it a distinctive style.
Of all the things we could’ve guessed would be the topic of this video - I don’t think anyone was expecting “National Treasure but Christmas animation”. Love the video! Something something engagement metrics.
Great video! I’m glad to see that someone covered the topic of the misconceptions of the puppets and their whereabouts. It’s worth mentioning that Rick Goldschmidt’s books have updates on the puppets as he finds information. If I recall, more puppets still exist in Japan than one would think, even including the Miser Brothers from Year Without a Santa.
Incredible animation work!! And very interesting subject. I didn’t know about this movie, but I’m glad to finally know what “late for elf practice” meme was all about, aha.
A few things; that other Santa could have very well also been used in shots where Santa didn't need to speak while another animator was working with the speaking puppet. In my short few years in Stop motion, we would always have multiple copies of the same puppet as things on them broke or just worn out from posing over and over. In 2019 or 2020 I was able to mess with some glasses made for a Santa puppet that was "going into a collection, likely not to been by the public again." wish I took some pics.
Swamp you're quickly becoming one of my absolute favorite youtubers by the way, I can't believe how consistently you're able to put out high quality well edited content like this and I look forward to when you're a 500k subscriber channel some day and I can say I knew about you before it was cool. Been following since your first delicious in dungeon video, and gonna be around for a long time to come.
Well, this is my first Swamp Jawn video, and I'm in love with the in-depth work you did on this, as well as adding in a note in post to address an inaccuracy. You included a lot of different perspectives and quotes from many individuals involved in this sage. This is just absolutely excellent work. You earned my 👍 and subscribe. I'm very much looking forward to diving into your back catalog to see what you have more regularly been doing for format and length.
This is my favourite Christmas movie!! We actually have a bunch of the characters including both the Abominable & Humble Bumble versions. The angry one guards the front door and Humble is helping out in our Christmas village! Thankyou for sharing this 😊
This was amazing. Loved the old school screen flicker periodically traveling up the video. Been watching since the Dungeon Meshi vids, love your content and learning all about the various animation techniques.
Amazing video, so well researched and well edited. Love how many things you pointed out, misspelt names in credits being one that boiled my blood. How dare they not credit the ones who made the actual film??? How dare the voice actors be paid so poorly yet one big name is paid far more? So many injustices, but thank goodness for you pointing them out so we can credit the real artists behind this amazing film. Thank you for a great watch!
Absolutely one of my favorite videos from your channel, and there's a lot of competition! You took a lot of history and did well to condense it into a compelling 24-minute narrative. Having sources in the description and video itself is appreciated too! Presentation is fantastic as always - the way you animate yourself with some rankin-bass styling this episode is really going the extra mile. Always delightful to see the bits and pieces of animation you do for these episodes, because that's an entirely different skill from editing and scripting and you do it very well.
i LOVE your 3D model mascot guy, it’s so cute and i feel like it has so much character, especially because it swivels at the hips and kind of wiggles around. it’s so cute! id love if you kept using it, especially because it seems like it took a lot of time. you did a wonderful job on this video, i loved it!
The timing is too serendipitous, my wife and i just watched Santa Claus is Coming to Town last night and at the end of the movie were wondering aloud what ever became of the puppets and the sets - now we know!
Definitely wasn't expecting to see Rudolph on this channel, but it was super fascinating all the same! More animation history deep-dives like this in the future would be really cool. Also, happy holidays!
Aw neat!! Just watched the special with my nephew the other day! Rudolph continues to be enjoyed by new generations every year and I really appreciate learning more about the artists who made this historic piece of media happen, especially when much of their work went uncredited or under appreciated. I would love to learn more about Tadahito Mochinaga!! Even from this brief overview, what a life he had
I've known the previous "official story" of this for a while, so it's exciting to get new info! And the real story is much happier than I'd thought! An outsourced christmas animation miracle! thank you!
I used to watch this movie religiously as a kid, along with all the other stop motion christmas specials Learning of their history is really fun and enjoyable, thank you for the awesome video! Merry Christmas
such an incredibly interesting and well-written video! you've given me a lot better insight into the world of animation ever since your weekly vids on Dungeon Meshi! I really love your channel
My mother would have loved watching this! She was a huge Rankin Bass Rudolph fan and she was big into the History channel back when it went over historical events.
Rudolph is my favourite Christmas movie. I even own a physical copy of it. Very cool to hear that stop motion was a technique started to preserve resources!
Rudolph's voice actress, Billie Mae Richards sounds so much like Billie Lou Watt and the voice she gave for the English dub of Kimba the White Lion in the 1965 series.
I was legit wondering this exact question just yesterday. Amazing and sad to hear how the real artists behind the beloved shows were kept in the shadows for so long.
I LITERALLY just did this deep dive myself because I adore Hermey. Thank you for covering this! Edit: My original comment was made before watching the video and after immediately waking up and seeing this on my phone's notifications (you are my "drop everything and watch this upload" channel and I was just too excited) so I wanted to say a little bit more now that I finished the video. These movies have been such a long standing tradition to watch in my family since I was a little kid and it was earlier this month where I had also fell down the rabbit hole to see what happened to them. Definitely heartbreaking to know so many of them didn't survive very long and most of the information about the puppets really only involves the Rudolph ones (I love A Year Without a Santa Claus so it's disappointing to not know the fate of those puppets either), but I do hold out hope that maybe some of them remain in Japan in unknown collections, hopefully stored better than the promotional ones that weren't sent here to the US. I do believe some puppets were reused in other productions, I remember reading somewhere that a Mrs Claus' face was repurposed for a Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory production but I will take that information with a grain of salt. Either way, I'm glad the actual puppeteers are getting the recognition they deserved (as best as they can). I've gotten so many people to watch these movies simply because I love Hermey so much, so I can't wait to send this video to my friends.
Omg thanks so much for this video! I never knew so many studios and workers went uncredited or were just plain credited WRONG (like fam how tf do you mess up someone's name spelling in credits WHAT?) It's sad that these folks are invisible like alot of animators back in those days, but it's so comforting to know that the puppets are in their rightful home tbh. It never say right with me that we Americans got them when they were created and loved so well (and correctly, not used as toys) in the original studio in Japan. It's good to know when I eventually visit the puppets in Atlanta (I'm local in GA, but if you know anything about Atlanta, it's a THING to drive to an in that city XD) Thanks so much for the fascinating video and thoroughly researched info~! Can't wait for that video about Mochinaga ;) Also, your character is adorable, where do I send fanart???
this is one of my favourite christmas movies. i started watching your dandadan videos a couple days ago and found this a moment ago. can't wait to see the conclusion edit: wow. just wow. this is downright enraging. so the people doing the actual puppeteering got pretty much nothing, and the voice actors also got paid absolutely jack. damn. while rankin seemed to have respect for them (and they seemed to like their jobs), the people involved deserved a whole lot more
Just found your channel as of today but great video and catalog overall. Already going back through your previous uploads as your style is incredibly informative, cohesive, and unique. I love the animations and model you employ as well as it isn’t distracting and is really pleasing color and design wise. Keep up the grand work, can’t wait to see what you do next! Also out of curiosity what sort of animal is your avatar meant to be? I’m not very knowledgeable so I couldn’t really tell but was wondering about it.
Before watching this video, the puppets showed up on Antiques Road Show. Some guy had them sitting in his attic for years after inheriting them from a family member.
I went to the Museum for Puppetry and Arts back in May really hoping to see the Rudolph puppet. But apparently they only "come out" in December, (as a staff member put it.) I was disappointed, but there was plenty of other cool stuff there. Even if they weren't the screen-used ones, they would have been neat to see.
I don’t care if the ones on display weren’t the ones from the movie Seeing them at the Center for Puppetry Arts is still one of the BEST moments of my life
So there might be more?! CAN SOMEONE CONTACT SOMEONE!!!! If there are more in existence or others they need to be properly cared for!!! Either in the us or japan WE NEED TO REACH OUT!
while i'm not a fan of rankin/bass animations myself, i found this super interesting. even though i don't personally enjoy their style, i know they were hugely influential in the animation world, and hearing about the lesser known (but no less influential himself) Mochinaga was really cool to learn about. Thanks for yet another great video, and i always enjoy your style emulations!
I know its outside of the preview for this video, but essentially the Japanese animation industry wouldn't exist without the United States. There was simply no funding in that time period for it within Japan. But that's not what I mean. I've been doing a lot of research on the pre-WWII and post-WWII periods, and these studios would often spend 12-14 hours a day working on their own content even before the post war era. Even today, those sorts of work days isn't uncommon. What they didn't like was having to work for the United States. Recall, they had just been told for 30 years that the US was the enemy...then the lost very badly to them. In Japan's mind, WWII really lasted from the first bombings of Tokyo to the signing of the surrender on the Missouri. Yes, they act like the war started with Pearl Harbor (it did not), and you will often hear Miyazaki say this, but the war didn't get real until those periods. Even then, it is hard to find Japanese news papers in that period that covered the bombing campaigns in any real detail till after the surrender. It must have been like being water boarded with steaming hot water after you spent six decades on the North Pole without heat. They didn't like the work, not because the conditions, but because who they were working for. Even today, Miyazaki often comments how he wished he didn't need to rely on the US for funding. He often bashes his own success in the US market, and it is very much for the same reason.
I don’t give two figs about Christmas specials, especially corporate ones But I do like learning about animation history and this video is incredible. I was drinking in all the information it was so fascinating
Everyone has their own opinion about a movie and when it comes to this one, I try to avoid it at all costs. It's just not my favorite. But I will watch this here documentary, hopefully I will learn something new.
You lost me when you refused to say the name, Little Black Sambo. It's one of my favorite stories from childhood, and those who freak out over it are ignorant shits I want nothing to do with. So, goodbye ignorant shit, I'm blocking your noise.
Tbh it always had a weird sickening quality to it i could never stand to watch, even as a kid. I have no real or unique critiques of it; it just makes me feel weirdly sick
As a Chinese person that understands the importance of thank you little kitty in Chinese movie history I would never have imagined it had this deep connection to rudolf.
Fantastic video. I especially liked your stop motion style Rig for your channel mascot. Very on theme. Really pulled it together.
Thank you! I'm so glad because that detail is what I ended up spending like 70% of my time on XD

Rankin Bass is still absolutely heinous for suppressing the credit of the Japanese studios that they outsourced to
@@KaminoKatie??
@@KaminoKatieFake. No one believes you, liar.
@@compassrose1466 They're not an animation studio by any stretch, nothing more than a production company that outsourced for cheap labor
Most people know, it's just a fun joke
18:48 I literally kept thinking "something's off, Santa isn't to scale"
Shoutout to all the underappreciated and underpaid animators that made this anime holiday classic. Mochinaga's group are stop-motion legends!
It's quite heartbreaking to know that a lot of the things we enjoyed as children often end up the result of unpaid unenjoyed labour manipulated by others for the sake of easy profit
It’s untrue. It was made by superior white people.
Don't be such a Killjoy. There is nothing heartbreaking about this story. Everyone got their due of what was previously agreed upon in their contracts.

@ But also the whole Japanese animator things never happened with Rudolph. It’s an urban legend that went too far.
@@VidelxSpopovich Most of the Japanese animators that worked on Rudolph won't get credited until a making-of book in 2001. Too little, too late if you ask me
@ They never worked on it. That’s all made up lies. Stop spreading misinformation.
*And then suddenly, right before Christmas, the Museum of Puppetry started getting a bunch of emails calling them fucking liars.*
Their PR team is probably scrambling rn

Two great things about Dandadan:
1) Dandadan
2) Finding this channel :3
This was amazing. Loved the old school screen flicker periodically traveling up the video.
Been watching since the Dungeon Meshi vids, love your content and learning all about the various animation techniques.

It is absolutely criminal that this isn't getting as much attention as your normal videos tend to. This is such an interesting topic!
first time watching from you. so great job breaking out of the yt bubble.
I loved this. thanks for making it
Nice video mr Jawn, get jolly with it
Loved this story Mister Swamp
I've known the previous "official story" of this for a while, so it's exciting to get new info! And the real story is much happier than I'd thought! An outsourced christmas animation miracle! thank you!
This is SO fascinating thank you for letting this project grow. The 3-D animation is amazing!
Never seen you before, but what a fantastic video!
Came here from your DanDaDan videos, and i haven't been disappointed. Consider me subscribed and happy holidays Jawn!
I used to watch this movie religiously as a kid, along with all the other stop motion christmas specials

To be fair, animators still often sleep by their desks in order to make deadlines.
Such a good video!
14:27 I love the Abominable Snowman, he's so adorable! I cry every time I see his demise, even though I'm an old lady now.
Me being into rankin basses stop motion. My favorite is Santa Claus is coming to town

Thanks for stopping by!
oh this is amazing to learn!!
Rankin Bass suppressing the credit of the Japanese studios that they outsourced to is such a heinous crime
My Dad fixed TV's for GE, and they showed this early at the company Christmas party.
I don’t care if the ones on display weren’t the ones from the movie
Seeing them at the Center for Puppetry Arts is still one of the BEST moments of my life
I love the new looks
So fascinating
really great vid, but the screen tearing effect is driving me absolutely bonkers, especially when text is on screen
If Rankin/Bass was an automobile it would be just as reliable as a FIAT (Fix It Again Tony)
So there might be more?! CAN SOMEONE CONTACT SOMEONE!!!! If there are more in existence or others they need to be properly cared for!!! Either in the us or japan WE NEED TO REACH OUT!
I could swear I've already seen this video but it says it's only two days old??
18:59 that Santa was used in the GE paper advertisement 1964
while i'm not a fan of rankin/bass animations myself, i found this super interesting. even though i don't personally enjoy their style, i know they were hugely influential in the animation world, and hearing about the lesser known (but no less influential himself) Mochinaga was really cool to learn about.

Oooh, neat!
Stop motion time
Like for Zombie Land Saga. The rest of the video is nice too.

7:00 minutes in and I am all in for a history of chinese animation
I miss the weekly sigma videos for anime!
Happy Algorithm I mean Holidays!
we have LSuperSonicQ at home
I don’t give two figs about Christmas specials, especially corporate ones
But I do like learning about animation history and this video is incredible. I was drinking in all the information it was so fascinating
YES, YES, YES
I AM SPEED

part 2 of asking for a beastars video now that the new seasson is out 😝😝
totaly not algorithem bait comment 😉
Everyone has their own opinion about a movie and when it comes to this one, I try to avoid it at all costs. It's just not my favorite. But I will watch this here documentary, hopefully I will learn something new.
You lost me when you refused to say the name, Little Black Sambo. It's one of my favorite stories from childhood, and those who freak out over it are ignorant shits I want nothing to do with. So, goodbye ignorant shit, I'm blocking your noise.
first
Tbh it always had a weird sickening quality to it i could never stand to watch, even as a kid. I have no real or unique critiques of it; it just makes me feel weirdly sick
... why did you decide to give me nightmare fuel again. You went back in time 20 years to unlock trauma...thanks
Ruohdof gave you trauma? No hate btw just curious
