Woodbury University Animation Student's Accomplishments Run 'The Spectrum' For Immediate Release Woodbury University Animation Student’s Accomplishments Run ‘The Spectrum’ Illustrator, Award-Winning Animator and Autism Spectrum Advocate Dani Bowman Turns to Woodbury University to Further Her Dream of Opening an Animation Studio LOS ANGELES (March 23, 2016) – Dani Bowman has a message of hope for young people who, like her, have been diagnosed with autism. “Everything is possible. If I can do it, so can you.” An artist whose talents were recognized by family members when she was five, Bowman has worked hard to overcome a variety of learning and communication challenges and make a name for herself as an illustrator and book publisher, award-winning animated filmmaker, public speaker, autism advocate and CEO and founder of DaniMation Entertainment. What the 21-year-old sophomore animation major at Woodbury University in Los Angeles has done is nothing short of extraordinary. “It’s such a wonderful story about how talent powers through all the obstacles that can get in our way,” said Dori Littell-Herrick, chairman of the Animation Department at Woodbury and a mentor of Bowman’s since she was in high school. “Dani is a role model for students with autism, but she is also a role model for all students here at Woodbury and everywhere.” Bowman’s accomplishments cover half a dozen typed pages – single-spaced. She has illustrated and published five children’s books and earned a slot as a regular at San Diego Comic-Con– a multi-genre entertainment and comic convention where she has premiered at least one of her award-winning short animated films in each of the last four years. Beginning when she was 14, Bowman has travelled around the country teaching animation to young people, first as part of Joey Travolta’s Inclusion Films Programs, and more recently at her own camps. In between, she has delivered her message of hope and inspiration to thousands of people at dozens of venues around the country. In between, Bowman has become a familiar face at animation award ceremonies. Her animated short films, most of which have won multiple awards, include Eeya’s Story (produced by Joey Travolta, about an autistic boy who saves his people from the Wee- Woos), Mr. Raindrop (about a tiny water drop that wants to become a raindrop), The Namazu (starring the voice of Tom Kenny and Stella Ritter, the story of a catfish that lives under Japan and causes earthquakes when children are bullied), Hanna Lost Her Smile (again starring the voice of Ritter, about a girl who discovers she has lost her smile), Airburst: The Soda of Doom (starring the voice of Joe Mantegna, based on the video game franchise AirBurst, produced by Strange Flavour ltd. in the UK), The Adventures of Pelican Pete: A Bird is Born (screenplay by Keaton Bicknell, a fellow autism advocate, based on the book series by Francis and Hugh Keiser), and Somebody NEEDS You, starring the voice of June Foray (Rocky from The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show). Her priority these days, however, is earning a bachelor’s degree in animation from Woodbury, followed by a master’s degree in business. She said she’ll need both in order to accomplish her long-term goal of opening an animation studio on par with Disney and Warner Bros. – one that will, she said, employ people “who are very talented, including people with disabilities and those with autism.” So why take the time to earn a degree in a field where she already has proven herself, and why at Woodbury? “It’s true that most of what I have learned about animation I have learned through experience,” said Bowman, who transferred to Woodbury from Glendale Community College. “It’s not just animation -- it’s also about the leadership side. It’s good to be able to wear a lot of hats, but you also need to know how to be the leader and learn how to delegate to others.” She chose Woodbury because it offers one of the best programs in both Animation and Business, and its smaller class sizes make it easier for students to customize their program to meet their learning needs. For example, Bowman is learning how to organize and prioritize – a critical skill for someone who has this many irons in the fire and who would just as soon spend her day sitting and drawing, instead of studying. “Sometimes it is really hard for me to explain things -- my brain just works a lot faster than my mouth, just to let you know,” she said with a laugh. The public is invited to attend a reception and screening of Dani Bowman’s short animated films on Friday, April 15, in the Entertainment Media Building, Room E100, on the Woodbury University campus, Glenoaks Blvd., Burbank. A reception will begin at 6 p.m., followed by films at 7 p.m. There is no charge.

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.

  • 'TOON IN, 'TOON OUT: AMERICAN TELEVISION ANIMATION and the SHAPING of AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE, 1948-1980 by David Perlmutt
    ‘TOON IN, ‘TOON OUT: AMERICAN TELEVISION ANIMATION AND THE SHAPING OF AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE, 1948-1980 by David Perlmutter A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Joint Master’s Program – Departments of History The University of Manitoba / The University of Winnipeg Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Copyright © 2010 by David Perlmutter ii ABSTRACT This thesis is a systematic study of significant American television animation programs produced between 1948 and 1980, with special attention given to selected works produced by three influential studios: Hanna-Barbera, Jay Ward and Filmation. It considers how outside forces such as television network censorship, grassroots political activism, and other social and political forces served to limit how the genre developed, and the extent to which producers chose to test the limits to get their points across. It provides a discussion of masculine images in television animation of the 1950s and 1960s, and of the reactions of television animation producers to outside concerns regarding violent imagery in children’s programming, and the threat of censorship related to this, in the 1970s. My thesis demonstrates that television animation producers, as a result of the need to remain actively involved in production, were forced to change and adapt with the times around them. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my family and friends for supporting me through this endeavor. I have appreciated their support especially in those times when I doubted my abilities, because they never did. I particularly want to thank Professor Churchill and Professor Elvins for giving me their advice and guidance in the long and arduous process of conceiving the draft.
