The MediaFreaks 3D Animation Blog would like to express its deepest condolences for the passing away of Cornelius “Corny” Cole, one of the established hallmarks of animation.
Cole died last August 8 due to Multiple System Atrophy, as disclosed to the media by his friend Bob Kurtz. He designed the Oscar-winning animated short Is It Right to Be Right? along with other classic cartoons such as The Ant and the Aardvark and The Phantom Tollboot just to name a few.
But his work will be best remembered for classic films such as Raggedy Ann and Andy – A Musical Adventure. Watch a segment of this film below; at around the 3:30 mark you’ll see the name of Corny Cole.
Cole also did the title design for the 1966 TV series Mr. Terrific and the 1974 feature Flesh Gordon. He also worked for the Looney, Looney, Looney Bugs Bunny Movie in 1981 (pictured below). Our thoughts go to his family and the younger animators he has inspired throughout the years.
