Recognizing Payut’s talent, the United State Information
Service (USIS) awarded him 10,000 baht and sponsored
him to go on vacation in Japan. For training, the agency
gave Payut a choice of spending six to eight months
with Disney Studios or going to Japan. He chose Japan,
where he just looked around, as animation did not exist
there at the time.6
Payut only made one animated film for the USIS, a 20-
minute propaganda film entitled Hanuman Pachon Pai
Krang Mai (The Adventure of Hanuman, 1957) that
recounted the story of Hanuman, the white monkey
in the classic Ramayana. The propaganda element was
present in the form of the defeated red monkey, which
represented communism.
On Disney and Japanese Anime, Ngaokrachang stated
with conviction:
Disney is the Master of Animation. I like Disney
more because I grow up with Americans. Japanese
Anime from Toei even came after me. I’ll tell you
a secret. Look at Hanuman [pointing to his early
drawing of Hanuman]. Now look at this [a card
from a Mr. Yasuo Otsuka of Toei Animation dated
1960]. This movie is entitled Saiyuki. The monkey
looks very similar to Hanuman. Why? Because he
asked me to give my Hanuman drawing to him
and based his Saiyuki monkey character to my very
own Hanuman.
คนที่ร่่วมทำอนิเมชันในเรื่องนี้คนหนึ่งคือ Yasuo Ootsuka ซึ่งเป็นอาจารย์ของ Hayao Miyazaki
