Gra0ce a* un language visuel et une esthetique qui lui sont propre, l’animation stylisee reussit a* conserver le sens tout en amplifiant les emotions du spectateur. Pourquoi et comment realise t-on un film en animation stylisee ? En se basant sur la litterature disponible, mes experiences et une serie d’interviews realisees aupre*s d’acteurs de l’industrie, ce memoire propose une approche philosophique, anthropologique et technique des principes et codes de l’animation stylisee. Il cherche a* mettre en lumie*re les raisons qui poussent un realisateur a* choisir ce medium et explore les possibilites offertes par les outils disponibles a* travers des exemple d’oeuvres 2D, 3D et hybrides. Enfin, pour illustrer mon propos, j’y presente mes mises en pratiques realisees lors de mon etude du sujet. abstract Animation is a perfect medium to abstract reality and to simplify forms and movements. Thanks to its own visual language and aesthetical values, stylised animation conveys meaning as well as amplifies the spectator’s emotions. Why and how are stylized animated movies made ? Using available literature, my own experiences and a series of interviews made with people involved with the industry, this thesis takes a philosophical, anthropological and technical approach to the principles and codes of stylized animation. It highlights the reasons why a director would choose this route and explores the possibilities of the available tools while presenting related 2D, 3D and hybrid works.

  • “L'era Glaciale” (Ice Age )
    Gli eroi sotto zero dei blockbuster mondiali “L’era glaciale” (Ice Age) e “L’era glaciale 2 – Il disgelo” (Ice Age: The Meldown) sono tornati in un’avventura incredibile... destinata a fare storia. Scrat sta ancora cercando di catturare l’inafferrabile ghianda (e intanto forse troverà il vero amore); Manny ed Ellie attendono la nascita del loro cucciolo di mammuth; Sid il bradipo si mette nei guai quando decide di mettere su famiglia con alcune uova di dinosauro che ha trovato; Diego la tigre dai denti a sciabola si domanda se non si stia “rammollendo” ad andare in giro con i suoi amici. Il gruppo deve all’improvviso partire in missione per salvare lo sfortunato Sid e si avventura in un misterioso mondo sotterraneo, dove avvengono incontri ravvicinati con dinosauri, piante battagliere e altri animali feroci, e dove vive una donnola combattiva di nome Buck, orba di un occhio, sempre a caccia di dinosauri. L’ERA GLACIALE 3 – L’ALBA DEI DINOSAURI ha tutto ciò che il pubblico ha amato nei primi due film, ma la commedia di animazione è più ricca di azione e di effetti spettacolari, oltre ad essere (in molti casi) impreziosita dal 3‐D. I nostri amati eroi vivono un’avventura inedita e, al loro fianco, troviamo alcuni nuovi personaggi memorabili. Un’altra novità in questo terzo episodio dell’Era glaciale è un immenso e incredibile mondo sotterraneo popolato di dinosauri. Il lussureggiante ambiente, in netto contrasto con l’habitat invernale dei primi due film, fa apparire poca cosa la vastità del mondo di ghiaccio sovrastante.

Graham Hancock. He dives off the coast of Japan, India, and Mediterranean lakes, hunting for truth, trying to piece together a story that makes sense of the facts. Unlike his later books, Graham scrys the material data, submerging himself in a free ranging list of options. Celestial Calculations. For example, there is one part of the book where Hancock tells a very lengthy and detailed account of several attemps to locate some particular sunken ruins, but has his efforts to do so thwarted repeatedly by everything from stormy weather to confused and forgetful guides. Fans of Hancock's previous adventures will find themselves immersed in Underworld, a provocative book that provides both compelling hard evidence for a fascinating, forgotten episode in human history and a completely new explanation for the origins of civilization as we know it.
