  • “Performance As Narrative in Two Mclaren Animated Shorts” Lucille Mok, Harvard University
    “Performance as Narrative in Two McLaren Animated Shorts” Lucille Mok, Harvard University Presented at the Canadian University Music Society Annual Conference University of Victoria, Victoria, BC June 5 to 9, 2013 Experimental filmmaker Norman McLaren created his abstract animated films at a pivotal moment in the history of animation and in the development of film and sound technology. During his career of over forty years (from 1941 until his death in 1987) at the National Film Board of Canada [NFB], McLaren was a key player in this evolution, incorporating sound and video in new and innovative ways. In both his aesthetic and approach to sound, McLaren followed in the footsteps of German filmmaker Oskar Fischinger, whose animation awakened McLaren’s fascination with film and its ability to “express his feelings about music.”1 Best known for his drawn-on sound techniques, McLaren developed techniques to compose electronic music by drawing or printing graphic patterns directly onto the optical soundtrack.2 [See Figure 1] His 1971 animated short “Synchromy,” referred to by the film scholar Thomas Y. Levin as “the magnum opus of the synthetic sound film,” is an examplar of McLaren’s audio technique.3 [See Figure 2.] By incorporating the images from his audio track directly into the film’s animation, McLaren augmented the visuals, revealing that the deep connections between sound and film were essential to his compositional process. 1 McLaren’s biographer, Terence Dobson, cites his encounter with Fishinger’s short animated film Study No. 7 as a moment of creative awakening.

  • A ESCUTA E a IMAGINAÇÃO EM BEGONE DULL CARE Rodrigo Fonseca E Rodrigues1 Resumo
    “ADEUS AOS DRAMAS”: A ESCUTA E A IMAGINAÇÃO EM BEGONE DULL CARE Rodrigo Fonseca e Rodrigues1 Resumo: O pensamento contemporâneo sobre a escuta nas artes audiovisuais ainda se instiga diante da singularidade expressiva dos short music films, trabalhos experimentais modernistas que se empenham em amalgamar ritmicamente a escuta e o olhar, desprendidos dos recursos da narrativa ou da diegese ficcional. Um exemplo emblemático do gênero é Begone Dull Care (1949), de Norman McLaren, Evelyn Lambart e Oscar Peterson Jazz Trio. Apoiado nas ideias de Henri Bergson, este texto problematiza o motor criativo dessa obra que não narra nem descreve, tampouco busca meramente gerar uma experiência sinestésica, mas experimenta uma composição de sonoridades e plasticidade que apenas explora ritmos inventados de sensação pela imaginação não figurativa – a fantasia - da escuta. Palavras-chave: short music films; escuta; sensação; imaginação; Begone Dull Care. Contato: [email protected] Introdução Pensar a escuta e a imaginação na arte audiovisual apresenta, logo à partida, um problema conceitual que precisa se reconhecer como um dispositivo de abstrações diante de ritmos que se operam nos entretempos da experiência. Por seus próprios limites linguísticos, o pensamento não consegue alcançar pela representação as sensações que nos afetam muito antes dos tempos comunicáveis da percepção audiovisual. Fala-se aqui da sensação singular que a arte tem o poder de criar. Para tentar, no entanto, problematizar o processo pelo qual as aptidões criativas do olhar e a imaginação lidam com a atividade da escuta, será brevemente revisto o conceito de sensação tal como foi pensado por Henri Bergson (1859-1941). O artigo elege como corpus empírico Begone Dull Care, um short music film realizado em 1949 por Norman McLaren, Evelyn Lambart e Oscar Peterson, no intuito de pensá-lo antes como uma experimentação criativa da 1 Doutor em Comunicação e Semiótica (PUC-SP), Mestre em Comunicação Social (UFMG), Graduado em História (UFMG).

The McLaren 2014 Programme is produced by the Centre for the Moving Image in partnership with the @mclaren2014 /mclaren2014 National Film Board of Canada. www.mclaren2014.com WELCOME hen it occurred to me, back in 2007, Wthat Norman McLaren’s centenary was approaching, I wanted to ensure Scotland recognised this internationally renowned artist – one that most people in his country of origin hadn’t heard of. McLaren 2014 will narrate the progress of Norman’s life in Scotland, starting in April where we relive his childhood days in Stirling. We will then go to The Glasgow School of Art in May to screen his student films. In June, we will witness his legacy afresh in Edinburgh, with an exhibition of his artwork and a premiere event at the 68th Edinburgh International Film Festival. During the whole McLaren 2014 programme, you will be able to attend exhibitions, screenings, workshops and performances in Scotland and in the rest of the UK. This amassed wealth of cultural activity has all been inspired by one modest Scotsman, and over the past five years of developing this festival, I have frequently had to consider: ‘What would Norman do?’ Given Norman’s unassuming opinion of himself, he probably wouldn’t have orchestrated four months of events dedicated to his legacy, and most certainly would have shied away of the accumulated enthusiasm I’ve encountered bringing this programme together, with the invaluable contribution of McLaren’s friend, fellow film maker Don McWilliams.

Died in Montreal, 1987. • NFB > Focus on Animation > Norman McLaren • McLaren 2014 Norman McLaren • The National Film Board of Canada was founded in 1939. • The British documentary film-maker John Grierson was appointed to be the first Head of the NFB. • In 1941, Grierson asked his friend and colleague McLaren to join the NFB, to be in charge of producing short animated films for the war effort. McLaren had been working in England and New York, using direct animation (drawing directly on 35-mm film). • At the Board, McLaren recruited young artists from across Canada to assist him, like George Dunning, Grant Munro and Rene Jodin. This group of individuals eventually became the animation department at the NFB. • The early films were done very inexpensively with a minimum of means because of scarce resources due to the war, but the films were completed with charm and vitality. • After WW II, the animators at the Board were able to focus their attention on more personal projects. Norman McLaren • After WW II, the animators at the Board were able to focus their attention on more personal projects. • McLaren became recognized internationally for his innovative technical achievements: • Drawing on film - he made “Begone Dull Care” (1949) made with Eve Lambert, with music by the Oscar Peterson Trio • Pixilation - he directed/animated actors frame by frame in front of the camera • Animated sound - when he drew and photographed optical sound, for films like “Neighbours” (1952) and “A Chairy Tale” (1957) for example • “Neighbours” won an Oscar in 1952.

  • Founded in 1939 Under the Aegis of Scotsman John Grierson, Pioneering Theorist and Practitioner of the Documentary Form, The
    Founded in 1939 under the aegis of Scotsman John Grierson , pioneering theorist and practitioner of the documentary form, the National Film Board was initially put in the service of war propaganda. Two years later, the addition to its ranks of Grierson’s countryman Norman McLaren would instigate the NFB’s second elemental thrust: technically adventurous, audaciously whimsical animation. These two interwoven threads have permeated the Film Board’s productions ever since, giving us formally innovative works that nonetheless edify. NFB films are fun, entertaining, and favor the dramatic over the didactic. We present, drawn from the shelves of Oddball Archives, what can only pretend at a cross-section of NFB’s voluminous output: explorations from the subatomic to the outer reaches of space, with a dose of human-scale drama and sheer flights of fancy. Pas de deux (1968) B+W 13 min. by Norman McLaren Set against a black ground, two graceful dancers become pure embodiments of light. Using optical superimposition, McLaren multiplies the figures, transforming live action into his own brand of kinetics. Beautifully choreographed and shot, hauntingly scored (featuring the United Folk Orchestra of Romania ), hypnotic and unforgettable. Cosmic Zoom (1968) Color 8 min. by Eva Szasz A fantastic, “continuous” voyage from a rowboat on the Ottawa river, upward and outward to a grand view of galactic flotsam, then back inwards through a rivulet of blood in the tip of a mosquito’s proboscis, to examine an atomic nucleus.
