Alice Board 1
- Here, as promised, is the first stat of the Alice In Wonderland storyboard.
The Mad Tea Party – “A Very Merry Unbirthday”
This comes from the archives of John Canemaker ‘s collection, and I am grateful for the loan.
I don’t know who the artist is, (John and I guessed at Joe Rinaldi) though it’s dated 1949.
As with past boards, I post the original stat here, and then follow up by breaking the very long columns into two or three, thus allowing me to post it larger for easier viewing. This is the original:

And here are the breakdowns:

8bJohn has given me more boards from Alice. One for her talk with the flowers “All In A Golden Afternoon” and Alice in the Rabbit’s house – growing larger.
I’ll post these on future posts in the next week or so.

This was a great way to start my morning. Thank you, Michael!
I’ll try finding my scans of the David Hall storyboards to post next week.

This is bloody amazing. Thank you so much Mr. Sporn for posting these. This is one of my favorite scenes in the movie. I love these storyboards. the drawings always have such energy in them.

Wow! Thanks for putting these up! The poses are a little lackluster, mostly talking heads. There’s not much acting, and not much contrast in the compositions. Maybe this version of the board was done before the voices were recorded.
Anyway, I’m still delighted to have this. Many thanks to you and John!
