Description
i've been anxiously anticipating showing this one off, so here it is: my poster for disney's classic "lonesome ghosts"!as with all of the posters in this series, i tried to capture the mood of the short whilst applying my own design sensibilities. for me, the crux of this film is the aggressive haunting of the ghost hunters by the titular lonesome ghosts, who are so bored they actually place the call to ajax ghost exterminators themselves. i tried to emphasize their deluge of pranks by literally framing mickey, donald and goofy with the ghosts themselves.
side note: legend states that this disney short was an inspiration for ghostbusters, which if true, is pretty durn cool.

I am extremely happy that I saw this. I used to watch this on a little windup camera toy we had at my grandmother's house when I was very little. I absolutely love this. It looks extraordinary!

I had that in the little movie camera-handcrank-viewfinder toy! I watched it forward and backward and in slow motion 100s of times. Thanks for the kick to the memory.

Love these! I love the tribute to the classics! I've been taking the old Disney cartoon look and applying it to modern franchises. [link] Your stuff is far superior than my stuff!

I think I remember first seeing this on an old flip-book type toy where there was no audio, but it was the entire episode frame by frame. Almost like those View-Finder kind of thing.
This is definitely one of my favorite ones you've done so far. Really great job. Love the color palette you chose for this too.
