    A hybrid documentary genre: Animated documentary and the analysis of Waltz with Bashir (2008) movie Barış Tolga Ekinci, [email protected] Volume 6.1 (2017) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2017.144 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract The word documentary has been described as an advice in “Oxford English Dictionary” in the late 1800s. Document is a main source of information for lawyers. And in cinema, basic film forms are defined with their own properties. The common sense is to seperate documentary from fiction, experimental from main current and animation from the live action films. While these definitions were being made, it has been considered that which expression methods were used. The film genre which is called documentary has been defined in many different ways. In this study, animated documentary genre which is a form of hybrid documentary has been concerned with Baudrillard’s theory. In this context, Ari Folman’s animated documentary Waltz with Bassir (2008) has been analyzed with genre criticism method. Keywords: Documentary, animated documentary, Waltz with Bassir, reality, hybrid genres. New articles in this journal are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 United States License.

A Hybrid documentary genre: Animated documentary and the analysis of Waltz with Bashir (2008) movie Barış Tolga Ekinci Introduction History of animated documentary1 is old as much as history of traditional documentary.

My concern in the following chapter is the conspicuous propensity in Swedish animation towards animated documentary. In my view Sweden is the country that, besides Canada and Great Britain, has developed the most prolifi c production of fi lms that merge documentary purposes and animated imagery. In this chapter I defi ne animated documentary, as I understand it. I will also take a look into the history of Swedish animation and documentary, with an emphasis on the features that might be the base for the development of the animated documentary.

  • South Korea and the Sub- Empire of Anime
    JOON YANG KIM South Korea and the Sub- Empire of Anime: Kinesthetics of Subcontracted Animation Production Th e relationship in the animation industry between Japan and South Korea has been as close as the geographic distance between the two countries. Since the mid- 1960s, South Korean studios and workers have manufactured Japa- nese animation in a mode of production referred to as hacheong in Korean and shitauke in Japanese, both of which mean “to subcontract.” In the global anime wave that started in the 1990s, this material condition of production has often been neglected or ignored, by academics as well as fans. Meanwhile in South Korea, since the mid- 1990s when the government started to promote fi lm and animation as a new national industry, the Korean term hacheong has been replaced by the English acronym OEM (original equipment manufacturing), despite no substantional changes in the condition of subcontracted produc- tion, as the former term seemed likely to off end many South Koreans’ national pride. Indeed, the issue of internationally subcontracted animation production in South Korea has long been viewed and spoken of from a nationalist perspec- tive. While intentionally ignoring the material reality of subcontracted work that has acted on the majority of the country’s animation industry, the South Korean mass media has not hesitated to propagate the notion that South Korea is the third-largest producer of animation in the world. 90 Subcontracted production in the Japanese animation industry, which I will explore in the main part of this essay, was encouraged by politico- economic factors that included location, diplomatic agreements, wage levels, and ex- change rates, and then materialized by a Taylorist work organization that went along with technologies of celluloid animation.

Taking into account theories of the place of animation in utilitarian films, avant-gar- de works and the essay film, the analysis, based on auto-ethnographic insights, provides some methods and approaches to developing animat- ed documentary work.

  • 'The Other' Through Narrative Empathy in Animated Documentary
    DRAWING THE UNSPEAKABLE – UNDERSTANDING ‘THE OTHER’ THROUGH NARRATIVE EMPATHY IN ANIMATED DOCUMENTARY JAN NÅLS Abstract ARCADA UNIVERSITY How to represent the suffering of distant others? AND UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI An international exchange program between Af- rica and Europe was set up in 2006 to tackle this issue with the help of documentary filmmaking. A result was A Kosovo Fairytale (2009), a case study of how animated documentary can pro- vide insights in how to represent ‘the other’. Theories of narrative empathy inform the under- standing of the process as well as the final film. This paper examines animated documentary from three distinct perspectives: as a pedagog- ical tool to enhance cultural understanding, as a process of narrative empathy, and as a coher- ent text which makes use of narrative strategies endemic to animated documentary in order to create emotional engagement. Conclusions suggest that animated documen- tary can be a novel way of representing the other, especially if narrative empathy is present throughout a production process, and that the process involves participatory elements where the subjects contribute to the narrative.
