Genndy's Scrapbook: The Story of Genndy Tartakovsky - Samurai Jack DVD Extras
Фильм және анимация
An excellent and informative biography of animator Genndy Tartakovsky, creator of such shows as Samurai Jack, Dexter's Laboratory, Sym-Bionic Titan, and Star Wars: Clone Wars. Craig McCracken, Rob Renzetti, Paul Rudish, and Genndy's wife and brother all appear. Narrated by the late Mako Iwamatsu, voice of Aku in Samurai Jack. This was originally available on the Season 2 DVD of Samurai Jack, released in 2007.

Hearing Mako narrating is heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time.

yeah. I thought it was nice for Mako to do this to tribute his fellow friend and colleague. He must have had fun playing Aku. :) Sad he is gone :/

Genndy didn't really come into his own until Samurai Jack, Star Wars, and Sym Bionic Titan.
Genndy is the Jack Kirby of animation, he was a hard worker and passionate about his art, and in the end he would always get screwed by the higher ups, getting his shows cancelled

19:22 Love what Craig says about doing and working with your own style instead of what's popular. Inspiring
Inspirational story. If "talent" exists then it´s completely overrated. Just know what you´re passionate for, and take your passion seriously and with hard work. Do not listen to speculations about the future of one way or another, just take your passion to your own limit, that´s the key to succeed.
tartakovsky's name already mark in my head since i was a kid because i grew up watching his works. thank you

There are two main things that make Genndy amazing. For one, his designs are MEANT to be animated, they don't look good on their own in still images, but they're perfect for movement. And Genndy's the master at timing and visual presentation over dialogue--something that most directors struggle with.
@musiclover_kb4913
6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, he even talked about that in the Powerpuff Girls behind the scenes documentary. He had trouble with character designing while PPG's creator Craig McCracken wasn't very good with animation and timing, so they helped each other with their weaknesses
This guy is fucking amazing. He is legend. Hes better than hollywood directors. Hes better than the people in charge. He should have his own network.
Why would anybody give this a "thumbs down"? R.I.P. Mako! ✊
Looking at the books in Genndy's office, I spy the super awesome manga Lupin III! Nice to see he's a man of impeccable taste.

For anybody else here that truly appreciates this man's work, I would recommend checking out Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal. It came out in 2019 and I just recently discovered it. Not sure if there will be more seasons, but it could potentially rival Samuria Jack.
Oh man! Nice to see Barry Young. He was such a nice man, and patient teacher.
Happy 50th, Genndy.
a true inspiration
I love every damn creator that made my child this man is one of them thank you for everything
This guy is my hero. Samurai Jack seriously made my life. Especially clonewars 2003 and sym bionic titan.
How fucking cool is it that this guy got Mako to narrate his own life story??
I just love that Mako as Aku is being the narrator. Mako Iwamatsu will be missed. :(

"I proceeded to give her the vibe".THIS WILL NEVER LEAVE ME.
God I love hearing Aku say "Jew" and "The Iron Curtain"
Gendy is Legendary!
In our time, there have been so few geniuses of note. I see Genndy Tartakovky and Hideo Kojima as two that stand out above the rest!
Watching Samurai Jack almost felt like I was watching a movie in some moments, especially in season 5.

I truly hope to become something one day like this fella, and his friends. These are truly inspirational people. Heck yeah
They said that Chuck Jones is Orson Welles of Cartoons. So I think that is making Genndy Tartakovsky is Quentin Tarantino of Cartoons.
THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS! This was amazing beyond words...and in Mako's voice! 🥹❤

I grew up On Bugs Bunny and Charles Jones, Robert Mckimson and the rest of those hilarious guys. LOOOOVED the art direction and style. Genndy and his crew are the closest next iteration of that cycle of humor and style and originality. They saw he could Execute, i.e. Comic Timing. Nice!
Now i understand why his cartoons and music are so distinct from others. He has that classical dark sad cinematic vibe in his cartoons .

Your documentary/life’s story may be narrated by Morgan Freeman cool, but it will never be narrated by Mako “Aku” Iwamatsu cool!
20:21 - that song just brought me back some years... nostalgia
I hope, they will not kill Aku in 2016's new series. That positive demonic guy is my favourite character (I never felt such attachment to the character; so, he's something more than just charismatic villain). P.S. And I hope that it will be still the same clever, cunning, mighty, funny, sarcastic and quirky Aku, whom everyone loved so much in childhood.
