This is Part Three of the UsefulNotes/LooneyTunesAndMerrieMelodiesFilmography, covering all shorts from [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1950 to 1959.]] A total of 278 shorts were released during this time.
Artistically, this was the era of increasing minimalism and aggressively-geometric graphic design in character design and backgrounds (visually distinguishing this period's output from the more aesthetically-finished refinement of the late '30s and '40s) owing to increased competition from the design-heavy (and then-critically-acclaimed) work of [[Creator/ColumbiaCartoons UPA]] and, more directly, the hiring of Maurice Noble as Creator/ChuckJones' layout man (a position analogous to an art director or production designer within the studio's system) in 1952. As Noble and UPA's influences amalgamated and accentuated across the decade, each of the studio's units (albeit on differing timeframes) increasingly adopted more angular character designs and physically and chromatically-abstract "flat-form" backgrounds.
The ''Looney Tunes'' directors in this period include Creator/FrizFreleng, Creator/RobertMcKimson, and Creator/ChuckJones (the only three left after Arthur Davis' unit was shut down for budget reasons, Frank Tashlin left to do live-action movies, and Bob Clampett left to do television). Jones, in particular would rise to become the most prominent of the remaining directors (through attaining the high point of his artistic talent) during this period, producing some of the most popular and acclaimed shorts of the decade and his career, cementing his place in animation history.
This is also the era where you can find almost all the Warner Bros. shorts that are/were staples of weekday afternoon and Saturday morning TV for kids in America[[note]]both on free-to-air TV and cable[[/note]], as well as being popular picks for home media releases (such as "One Froggy Evening", "What's Opera, Doc?", "Show Biz Bugs", the "Rabbit Season/Duck Season" shorts[[note]]also known as "The Hunters' Trilogy"[[/note]], "Birds Anonymous", and several Road Runner/Wile E. Coyote cartoons, to name a few). See if you can spot your favorites.

This is Part Three of the UsefulNotes/LooneyTunesAndMerrieMelodiesFilmography, covering all shorts from [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1950 to 1959.]] A total of 278 shorts were released during this time.
Artistically, this was the era of increasing minimalism and aggressively-geometric graphic design in character design and backgrounds (visually distinguishing this period's output from the more aesthetically-finished refinement of the late '30s and '40s) owing to increased competition from the design-heavy (and then-critically-acclaimed) work of [[Creator/ColumbiaCartoons UPA]] and, more directly, the hiring of Maurice Noble as Creator/ChuckJones' layout man (a position analogous to an art director or production designer within the studio's system) in 1952. As Noble and UPA's influences amalgamated and accentuated across the decade, each of the studio's units (albeit on differing timeframes) increasingly adopted more angular character designs and physically and chromatically-abstract "flat-form" backgrounds.
The ''Looney Tunes'' directors in this period include Creator/FrizFreleng, Creator/RobertMcKimson, and Creator/ChuckJones (the only three left after Arthur Davis' unit was shut down for budget reasons, Frank Tashlin left to do live-action movies, and Bob Clampett left to do television). Jones, in particular would rise to become the most prominent of the remaining directors (through attaining the high point of his artistic talent) during this period, producing some of the most popular and acclaimed shorts of the decade and his career, cementing his place in animation history.
This is also the era where you can find almost all the Warner Bros. shorts that are/were staples of weekday afternoon and Saturday morning TV for kids in America[[note]]both on free-to-air TV and cable[[/note]], as well as being popular picks for home media releases (such as "One Froggy Evening", "What's Opera, Doc?", "Show Biz Bugs", the "Rabbit Season/Duck Season" shorts[[note]]also known as "The Hunters' Trilogy"[[/note]], "Birds Anonymous", and several Road Runner/Wile E. Coyote cartoons, to name a few). See if you can spot your favorites.
