That was sort of a US effort for them as they set up a studio somewhere near LA (I saw credit someplace identifying Pebble Beach where they had a studio at). The main character in it that Tim ID'd as "Perseus" was one of several names given to a boy figure who was playing different roles based on Ovid's tales. Originally this kid didn't have a name so to speak, though when Metamorphoses was re-edited/re-arranged into "Winds of Change", the character was called "Mr. Wondermaker". More on "Winds of Change" in a future comment on Jerry Eisenburg by me!<br /><br />"The Mouse and His Child, though produced at Murakami-Wolf Films, was also a Sanrio co-production with that studio. Both Winds of Change and Mouse and His Child had home video releases in the 80's, though they can probably be found on YouTube these days.Chris Sobieniakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09838106041175506925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-49446447769153406892011-01-14T20:57:55.139-08:002011-01-14T20:57:55.139-08:00Tim's an true icon in animation!

I think Tim used to date Minnie Mouse back at the original Hyperion Studio. Of course Robert was always a Clarabelle man. ;-)Mike Milohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10274860642943109102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22906998.post-78383847419675781742010-12-28T15:50:00.996-08:002010-12-28T15:50:00.996-08:00Hey Tim and Robert.
