I was a tomboy, growing up in the early 1960s, getting mixed messages from parents, grandparents, television, and teachers.&nbsp; But fitness pioneer Jack LaLanne \u2018got\u2019 me.&nbsp; I knew that he took me seriously and I returned the favor.&nbsp; One of my earliest memories is rushing home from kindergarten to exercise along with Jack\u2019s TV show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I (heart) Jack LaLanne: A Cartoon Memoir <\/em>is an animated documentary film structured around the life and legend of Jack LaLanne as it explores my personal experiences growing up female and gay in 1960s-70s America.&nbsp; I was a serious athlete during my early and young adult years, thus the film also delves into issues of self-identity, societal expectations, and the effects of aging on the human body.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I (heart) Jack LaLanne: A Cartoon Memoir<\/em> uses classic and computer-based animation techniques to create visuals that accompany the voiceover storytelling.&nbsp; Original drawing combines with rotoscoping, composited archival video clips float inside retro televisions, while stop-motion vitamins march toward their mark. The film moves around in time and space, with Jack Lalanne\u2019s career trajectory serving as a touchstone to my personal journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a playful visual aesthetic and humorous tone, the film tackles serious issues, including the impact of role models on children, coming out as gay in a less tolerant era, and dealing with a late-in-life disability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma Clip<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/702877991?h=810e585642\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/702877991\">wilma clip<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/user18418132\">LAErickson<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title:&nbsp; I (heart) Jack LaLanne: A Cartoon Memoir Logline: In this animated short documentary, the filmmaker, a lesbian, feminist baby boomer, shares her coming out&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/sample-page\/\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">About the project<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":489,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/489"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":181,"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions\/181"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
