Popeye was a source of inspiration for many kids. How he achieved super strength by eating Spinach, motivated them to eat the tasteless but healthy green vegetables.

The Use of Motion Capture in Non-Realistic Animation
Escola das Artes da Universidade Católica Portuguesa Mestrado em Som e Imagem The Use of Motion Capture in Non-realistic Animation Computer Animation 2013/2014 João Pedro Tavares Medeiros Paiva Thesis Advisor: Prof. Dra. Sahra Kunz September 2014 The Use of Motion Capture in Non-realistic Animation Acknowledgements I would like to thank my advisor Sahra Kunz for all the help and dedication throughout this year. I would like to thank the project mentors Sahra Kunz and Ricardo Megre for their support and incentive in the production of Napoleon’s Unsung Battle. I would like to thank my course colleagues for the insightful criticism during this process. I would specially like to thank João Moura for finding time to help me despite working on his pro- ject. Finally I would like to thank my family for the support given throughout my academic journey. i The Use of Motion Capture in Non-realistic Animation Abstract The Use of Motion Capture in Non-realistic Animation explores the possibility of creating non- realistic animation through the use of motion capture. In this study we look to the particularities of cartoony/non-realistic animation while trying to as- certain if it is viable to create this type of animation through the process of motion capture. This dissertation will, firstly, expose the historical, theoretical, technical and artistic context. There will be a brief description of important landmarks and general overview of the history of animation. There will also be an explanation of how animators’ will to mimic real life motion, led to the invention of several technologies in order to achieve this goal.

BIO & Press Release
s c o t t e d e r g a l l e r y | n y c Kim Deitch | Solo Exhibition December 6th, 2013 to January 25th, 2014 Artist reception December 6 th at 6 PM Scott Eder Gallery 18 Bridge St., Brooklyn, NY Scott Eder Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of art by the New York-based Underground Comix legend Kim Deitch. Spanning 30 years of work, the show will feature art from his most recent graphic novel, Katherine Whaley, and include selections from classics such as Smilin' Ed, Stuff of Dreams... and the infamous cat, Waldo. Deitch's narrative sense takes no back seat to the precise line of his pen; his clear lines have evolved towards a lush inking style, with an almost velvet-like textural quality. His yarns explore themes like obsessed collectors, film history, and dementia, and can flow from the mundane into the surreal and psychedelic as smoothly as a daydream. While silent movies and old-time animation haunt the stage for Deitch's characters, two- dimensional creatures cross into reality and often leap right out of the artwork with his signature “exploding page” layouts. In addition to original artwork, silkscreen prints, T-shirts, and signed books will be available for purchase at the opening reception on December 6th. __________________________________ Son of well known animator Gene Deitch, Kim Deitch rejected his conventional Pratt Institute education and found inspiration as a young adult in the burgeoning Underground Comix movement of the late 1960s. Underground Comics (or “comix” for the oft-X-rated themes) evolved as a reaction against the censored world of the CCA, the Comics Code that governed mainstream comics and basically kept them G-rated.

An Interview with Kim Deitch Conducted by Derek Parker Royal
Journal of Graphic Novels and Comics Vol. 3, No. 1, June 2012, 85–116 INTERVIEW Behind ‘The Glowing Belly of the Little Beast’: an interview with Kim Deitch Conducted by Derek Parker Royal Encountering the comics of Kim Deitch is like stepping into another world, a region where the façade of reality is tenuously thin and easily punctured by the surreal. What at first appears grounded and intelligible turns out to be, on closer inspection, a mere ruse, a neces- sary fiction masking a deeper realm – a subterranean system as fascinating as it is sinister – that actually sustains the everyday. In Deitch’s world, a legion of grey-bearded pygmies can maintain long-forgotten pop cultural lore, French-speaking beavers can develop a vast underground culture, and undetectable space aliens can record for posterity all the happen- ings of our lives. The characters that populate Deitch’s storyworld are an assorted lot and reflect the carnivalesque nature of his narratives: con men, sideshow performers, psychic detectives, silent-film heroes, Disneyesque animators, kiddie-show entertainers, bottle cap collectors, and highly eroticized clowns. What binds these seemingly disparate figures is an impulse to entertain, a propensity they share with their creator. Most of Deitch’s comics are set in the entertainment industry – Hollywood films, travelling carnivals and sideshows, animation studios, jazz and ragtime, children’s television programming, screenwriting, theatrical brothels – a world with which the artist is quite familiar. Kim is the son of Gene Deitch, an illustrator, animator, film director, and creator of Terrytoons’ animated series, Tom Terrific. As he reveals in the following interview, Kim was strongly encouraged by his father and was influenced by the abundance of art and music, particularly jazz, that permeated the Deitch home.

Animation Tips & Tricks
Animation Tips & Tricks BY: Shawn Kelly FOREWORD Hello everyone! Welcome to the first collection of the Tips & Tricks articles that you’ve been seeing in our monthly newsletter over the last few years. If you’re a regular reader, I just wanted to thank you for all the support, all the encouraging emails, and for all of the great feedback and follow-up questions! If you’re a new reader, however, there are a few things you should know. First, I love animation. LOVE IT. I love everything about this art form. Doing it, talking about it, studying it, etc. Which is probably the root cause of the second thing you should know: as much as I seem to continually promise to be less wordy in these articles, it never really happens, so don’t hold your breath. And third, after re-reading a lot of these tips and tricks, I clearly have an unhealthy obsession for fried chicken and Bacardi Anejo y Coca, so just be prepared for that as well! :) Anyway - I hope you have fun reading (or re-reading) these articles. For the most part, they’re just me rambling on about this or that, but it’s been amazing to hear from so many of you that you have found them helpful. Thanks again so much for all the great feedback! Please continue to send in your questions and comments to [email protected] - I read and reply to every email that comes through, and a lot of your suggestions end up becoming great article topics! Keep animating, and as always -- have FUN! SHAWN KELLY INTRODUCTION Welcome to the First Edition of Animation Tips and Tricks.
