Описание:
Richly illustrated with unique material from the BFI archive, The Story of British Animation is the first authoritative account of the history, art and industry of animation in Britain, covering everything from the origins of animation at the end of the Victorian era to the 21st century's pioneering digital techniques.
Jez Stewart tells the story of this extraordinarily fertile area of British film, from the first experiments with stop-motion to contemporary viral videos on YouTube. Animation boomed during WWI and faltered during the 1930s, when creatives turned their hands to advertising and sponsored films for survival, but there was a flourishing encouraged by the GPO Film Unit, which commissioned films by visionary artists like Len Lye, Norman McLaren and Lotte Reiniger that were then shown in cinemas. Stewart highlights the integral role of women in the industry, the crucial boost delivered by the arrival of Channel 4 in 1982, the recent evolution of animation online and much more. The book also features focused 'close up' analyses of key animators, studios and classic films, such as Anson Dyer's Animal Farm (1954), Britain's second animated feature Yellow Submarine (1968), the children's classic Watership Down (1978) and the creations of Aardman Animations.

Описание:
Toy Story (John Lasseter, 1995), Pixar's first feature-length production and Hollywood's first completely computer-generated animated film, is an international cultural phenomenon. This collection brings together a diverse range of scholars and practitioners who together explore the themes, compositional techniques, cultural significance and industry legacy of this landmark in contemporary cinema.
Topics range from industrial concerns, such as the film's groundbreaking use of computer generated imagery and the establishment of Pixar as a major player in the animation world, to examinations of its music, aesthetics, and the role of toys in both the film and its fandom. The Toy Story franchise as a whole is also considered, with chapters looking at its cross-generational appeal and the experience of growing up alongside the series.
As the first substantial work on this landmark film, this book will serve as an authoritative introduction for scholars, students and fans alike.

Описание: Ivor the Engine, Noggin the Nog, Pingwings, Pogles Wood, Clangers, and Bagpuss - the iconic animations produced by the Canterbury-based Smallfilms studio between 1958 and 1984 - constitute a significant thread of British cultural history. The lasting appeal of the imagined worlds created by Smallfilms is evident in the highly-successful BBC reboot of Clangers (2015-present), which has introduced a whole new audience to the pink moon mice. As well as the shows likely to be famiilar to readers, this history expands the Smallfilms story to include those less well-known animated shows that nonetheless played an important part in the studio’s history.
Through extensive studio access, interviews with many key Smallfilms collaborators, press and audience analysis, Chris Pallant provides a comprehensive and definitive historical record of the studio’s work. Beyond Bagpuss is illustrated with 100 images from the Smallfilms archive, including those that have not previously been published.

Описание: Writing for animation has its own very specific challenges and rewards. Does your story require a cast of thousands? Is it set underwater or on the edge of an active volcano? Do your characters need to fly to the rescue, or are they giants heavily stomping hapless villagers? Do they need to speak believably? Or is your film completely abstract with no characters at all? It's your film and the possibilities are endless.
All these decisions must be carefully considered at the planning stage, alongside a realistic assessment of the available time, skills, budget and resources. It's also important to understand the theories that underpin successful storytelling, and how to use and play with genre conventions. Throughout Screenwriting for Animation, Paul Wells guides you through identifying promising concepts, selecting an appropriate medium, establishing an appropriate tone, theme and plot, as well as exploring narrative structures and character development.
With case studies and interviews exploring the working methods of masters of the craft, including Adam Elliot, Bill Plympton and Joan C. Gratz, this is everything you need to get inspired and start writing!
