    It's hard to describe exactly what I did. I followed Ollie Johnston around getting him any drawing he could remember mostly for the Bambi book. I dug up all sorts of esoterica for Andreas Deja and his consummate collection. I prowled through Rescuers for this that and the other to beef up Rescuers Down Under and sifted through countless scenes to find just the right atmosphere for Pixote Hunt.
