Chuck Jones Memorial Spot

[Jambe]

I recall from years ago that Cartoon Network (& Adult Swim) ran a memorial bump for Chuck Jones that consisted of a blank page at first, and then his face & the years of his life were drawn in... and there were no spoken words.  I remember it being pretty powerful, and I've searched high and low for it but I can't find it anywhere.

Do any of you know what I'm even talking about here?  I've had a hard time convincing people that the TV spot actually exists.  If any of you remember it, might you have a copy of it tucked away on your hard drives or perhaps know of a link to it on the mighty interweb?

I'd be very much appreciative of any info or a helpful suggestion of where to look or ask around.

I do remember what you're talking about, even though I don't have a copy (nor a capture card, that was in February 2002). It was really touching, but I don't know where could you find a copy of it. I'll try to scour the web though.

[Jambe]

Thanks for looking!  Have you found anything?  I've done my fair share of sifting about and nothing has come to my attention, unfortunately.

[mongo]

No  I've tried a lot of searches but nothing's turned up. Does anyone else know about this? (Numy, Beefy, Crab?)

[NumyMufn]

I doubt that I'd have it anywhere... I was hoping Beefy might pick up the trail. 

[Beefy]

Who dares summon Beefy?

I have some clips on my hard drive from April 2002, but none of them have the clip you're looking for.

I have a few other tapes lying around, but I don't know what's on them or when they were recorded.  If I ever get some vacation time I want to go through them.

I'll keep a look out for this, but I make no guarantees and don't expect anything anytime soon.

Hi, necroing this thread in light of a recent re-searching for the memorial spot in question.  Any further developments, perchance?  I can't even find any indication of the spot on the web, let alone a recording.  Quite disheartened, I am.

[Beefy]

I've haven't had a chance to dig through my tapes yet.

There's a few other projects I need to get done before I can go tape searching.

I just got one project done that's been sitting around for two years (stupid Miguzi bumps), that's how backlogged my "to do" pile is.

Hi again.  I just did a Google search for "chuck jones memorial spot" without the quotes; this thread was the top result.  Rather disheartening, really.  Searching through the subsequent threads doesn't lead to a video and I've only found sparse acknowledgment that the spot in question actually exists.

Any new developments, perhaps?

/edit: the search was actually for the following:

Come on guys, let's hustle!  hehe.

[Jambe]

Wow, an unexpected bump!  For the record, I haven't done much more searching.  I'm pretty much resigned to the idea that the only copy of the spot in question is tucked away in some Turner archive.

[mongo]

No news regarding this one yet.

[Jambe]

It's been a LONG time since I bumped this... but I figured I might as well see if one of you fine folks has any more info or some time to dig through a tape or two.

[Beefy]

My plans to go through the tapes last month got delayed. 

At least I didn't forget.

I hope to find some time to work on it in the next few months.
