Several artists left Disney after the
1941 labor strike ( you can read another Tom Sito article about the strike
here). Some of the artists joined UPA Studios, including
John Hubley,
Jules Engle (founder of Cal Arts Experimental Animation program) and
Bill Melendez (who went on to make the Charlie Brown Specials). UPA studios was created Gerald Mc Boing Boing and Mr. Magoo, among other programs, featuring modern design and human characters rather than anthropmorphized animals.
