Many of us can rattle off a list of jobs that are integral to movie making. A new exhibit at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences honors an essential, but rarely publicized, member of the filmmaking team: the illustrator. "The Art of the Motion Picture Illustrator" features over one hundred storyboards, sketches, and watercolor renderings by three artists for films including Bambi, The Birds, The Ten Commandments, and Dick Tracy. Larry talks with Ellen Harrington, the Director of Exhibitions at the Academy, about the illustrators and their work in dozens of films from the late 1940s through the early 1990s.
