The Arthur Humberstone Animation Archive showcases a wealth of production material and unseen ephemera from Animaland (1948), Animal Farm (1954) and Watership Down (1978)
Arthur Humberstone (1912 – 1999) was a British animator, artist and director whose credits included Animal Farm, Yellow Submarine and The BFG. He worked with Halas & Batchelor and as a senior animator with Martin Rosen on Watership Down and The Plague Dogs. Arthur Humberstone's influence is evident from the privately managed Arthur Humberstone Animation Archive which contains a wealth of pre-production materials spanning his 45-year career. The archive reveals both the profound influence Humberstone had over animal aesthetics and our understanding of animation history.
