1 “I Grew up Loving Cars and the Southern California Car Culture. My Dad Was a Parts Manager at a Chevrolet Dealership, So V
“I grew up loving cars and the Southern California car culture. My dad was a parts manager at a Chevrolet dealership, so ‘Cars’ was very personal to me — the characters, the small town, their love and support for each other and their way of life. I couldn’t stop thinking about them. I wanted to take another road trip to new places around the world, and I thought a way into that world could be another passion of mine, the spy movie genre. I just couldn’t shake that idea of marrying the two distinctly different worlds of Radiator Springs and international intrigue. And here we are.” — John Lasseter, Director ABOUT THE PRODUCTION Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Studios are off to the races in “Cars 2” as star racecar Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) and his best friend, the incomparable tow truck Mater (voice of Larry the Cable Guy), jump-start a new adventure to exotic new lands stretching across the globe. The duo are joined by a hometown pit crew from Radiator Springs when they head overseas to support Lightning as he competes in the first-ever World Grand Prix, a race created to determine the world’s fastest car. But the road to the finish line is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and bombshells when Mater is mistakenly ensnared in an intriguing escapade of his own: international espionage. Mater finds himself torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and “towing” the line in a top-secret mission orchestrated by master British spy Finn McMissile (voice of Michael Caine) and the stunning rookie field spy Holley Shiftwell (voice of Emily Mortimer).

Can they walk the talk? Title: An Exploration Of The Creative Challenges In Representing Human Movement In Digital Animation Subtitle: Exploring the range and limits of human and quasi- human expression in animation and related disciplines, defined by technology, nature and imagination Annabel Lagasse B.A. M.A. A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of Nottingham Trent University and Southampton Solent University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2015 PhD Thesis Southampton Solent University Annabel Lagasse Acknowledgements I wish to express my sincere thanks to Dr J. Issapour for his support and guidance and encouragement in my research. I would like also to thank Diana Brown MA RCA MA Middlesex, Senior Lecturer at South Bank University for her invaluable consultation. And thanks go to Colin Taylor for his practical support. PhD Thesis, Nottingham Trent and Southampton Solent University Annabel Lagasse [2] Abstract ‘Can they walk the talk?’ Title: An Exploration of The Creative Challenges in Representing Human Movement In Digital Animation Subtitle: Exploring the range and limits of human or quasi-human movement in animation and allied disciplines, defined by technology, nature and imagination. The research began from Mori’s Uncanny Valley hypothesis, which suggests that new technologies present significant challenge in animation for human simulation? If so, how can we better identify and engender an appealing, aesthetic reality that both Mori and Disney recommend in the context of digital animation? Can alternative mimodynamic methods used by Lecoq (in creative education) assist animation process, justifying a contribution to knowledge? The thesis explores the significance of Mori’s theory of the Uncanny response by examining current opinion from within science and animation production, as well as analysing recent cultural and technological change.
