1985 LA Times file photo by Mel MelconLegendary Art Clokey stop-motion animator, who with his wife, Ruth, created the stop-motion animation series Gumby and then later, the Davey and Goliath series, has died in California at 88.
From the New York Times:
Asparagus green and fashioned from clay, Gumby made his television debut in 1956 on “The Howdy Doody Show.” The next year, he became the star of “The Gumby Show,” in which he embarked on a string of gently quixotic adventures with his supple steed, Pokey. The series was one of the first extended uses of stop-motion animation on television.
Read the rest of the NYT’s obit. Also see the Los Angeles Times obit. Visit The Deep Archives for a detailed tribute to Clokey which includes Gumby storyboards and pictures of him at work animating.

On August 24th, I interviewed Moviestorm’s Matt Kelland (who recently got married!). I even managed to squeeze a few secrets out of ‘the tight-lipped-one’.
Upon reviewing the audio file, I discovered that it had some technical problems, and not being highly skilled in audio stuffs, I turned to Phil Rice and Ricky Grove to see what could be done to fix the problem. They were able to help by explaining what had gone wrong and also gave some suggestions and advice and finally, by doing some voodoo to improve the quality.
And yes, this is digipendence.com’s FIRST podcast!
