It is a matter of great pride for the Conference to be associated with this emblematic cultural icon of the city, and even at the tender age of four, we hope to achieve the same longevity. We are very grateful to the Barcelos City Hall for sharing with us a building that represents the local culture so well, in a city well known for its rooster, which has also become, inarguably, a symbol of Portugal as a whole. If we dared touch such an icon, we would add an illustration of wide open wings so the rooster—merrily, or even animatedly, you might say—could ¨y farther, increasing international recognition for both CON- FIA and Portuguese culture. Thank you to IPCA’s School of Design, the main driving force behind this international event, and to everyone who contributed to its organization and made it a reality, such as members of the organizing committee, sponsors, members of the scientiªc committee and, in particular, all the participants and researchers. This year’s edition does indeed take us farther, with more than 80 articles on illustration and animation submitted by authors from around the world: Portugal, England, Turkey, Brazil, Spain, France, Australia, New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates, the United States, Italy and Poland, to name just a few of the countries. Of those, 58 articles were selected which we are sure will encourage fruitful discussion and the sharing of knowledge in the ªelds of illustration and animation. These articles ªll the following pages and will certainly be of great interest for all researchers in the area. We truly appreciate the researchers for contributing to a corpus of high quality, strict standards and great depth. CONFIA continues in this edition—and will continue in future—to focus on research in an attempt to alter perceptions and combat stereotypes with the goal of increasing knowledge in an area as broad, creative and complex as illustration and animation. These ªelds have been dramatically changed as a result of contact with new technologies, new audiovisual trends and new models and types of expression, not to mention the introduction of new dynamic and interactive devices that call for more careful observa- tion. After all, this collaborative, networked world is creating new preroga- tives and making possible countless ways to share, which deserve our close attention. If this construction of the static image and the animated image deserve such a close look, then the discussions and sharing of knowledge that this multidisciplinarity demands surely also deserve thoughtful ver- balization. This year we are therefore pleased to welcome our keynote speakers So- phie Van Der Linden, Esther Leslie and Nilton Gamba Júnior, who will sha- re with us their constructive, personal and alternative views of illustration and animation. These views result from, on the one hand, distinct acade- mic, scientiªc and cultural formative paths and, on the other, a culmina- tion of research experience built up over many years. All that remains now is to hope that these proceedings of the 4th edition re¨ect all of our audacity, originality and desire to continue to grow as pro- moters and driving forces for the highest quality research in the areas of illustration and animation. Welcome, and we hope that you have the best CONFIA yet.

  • Animation Fandom in North America and East Asia from 1906–2010 By
    Animating Transcultural Communities: Animation Fandom in North America and East Asia from 1906–2010 By Sandra Annett A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of English, Film, and Theatre University of Manitoba Winnipeg © 2011 Sandra Annett Abstract This dissertation examines the role that animation plays in the formation of transcultural fan communities. A ―transcultural fan community‖ is defined as a group in which members from many national, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds find a sense of connection across difference, engaging with each other through a mutual interest in animation while negotiating the frictions that result from their differing social and historical contexts. The transcultural model acts as an intervention into polarized academic discourses on media globalization which frame animation as either structural neo-imperial domination or as a wellspring of active, resistant readings. Rather than focusing on top-down oppression or bottom-up resistance, this dissertation demonstrates that it is in the intersections and conflicts between different uses of texts that transcultural fan communities are born. The methodologies of this dissertations are drawn from film/media studies, cultural studies, and ethnography. The first two parts employ textual close reading and historical research to show how film animation in the early twentieth century (mainly works by the Fleischer Brothers, Ōfuji Noburō, Walt Disney, and Seo Mitsuyo) and television animation in the late twentieth century (such as The Jetsons, Astro Boy and Cowboy Bebop) depicted and generated nationally and ethnically diverse audiences.

  • The Animation Sculpture from Ancient Ceramic Art to Projection Mapping
    The animation sculpture From ancient ceramic art to projection mapping Diplomarbeit Ausgeführt zum Zweck der Erlangung des akademischen Grades Dipl.-Ing. für technisch-wissenschaftliche Berufe am Masterstudiengang Digitale Medientechnologien an der Fachhochschule St. Pölten, Masterklasse Experimentelle Medien von: Ing. Ani Antonova Hristova dm171528 Betreuer/in und Erstbegutachter/in: Mag. Mag. Dr. Franziska Bruckner Zweitbegutachter/in: FH-Prof. Mag. Markus Wintersberger St. Pölten, 18.05.2020 Abstract The master thesis investigates various artistic practices combining animation with three-dimensional physical objects. It suggests the term “animation sculpture” and discusses its importance as a distinctive art form in the context of visual art and new media. It starts with research on its rich history from the various predecessors in the ceramic and pottery painting. Then goes through the “pre-cinematic” devices to the contemporary video sculptures using screens and projection mapping, outlining some common sculptural, technical and narrative properties of this hybrid art-form. The theoretical research opens a dialogue with a praxis-based research whose goal is the creation of the animation sculpture prototype “Cornucopia”. The sculpture is inspired by the earliest sequential images and on formal and technical level explores the elements of rotation, circularity, repetition and brevity, characteristics bound to the first optical toys, in combination with projection mapping. Additionally, to the practical experiments, four quality interviews with experts, coming from different fields of studies: Prof. Dr. Svetoslav Ovtcharov, Dr. Paulo Viveiros, Dr. Birgitta Hosea and Stefan Stratil, were conducted. They were asked to share their expert evaluation on the practical work and to outline their personal experiences or contacts with the hybrid medium animation sculpture.

  • Biomechanics and Animation Interactions
    i i i i Biomechanics and Animation: information technology and arts interactions José Maria Dinis, Filipe Costa Luz & João M.C.S. Abrantes MovLab / CICANT, Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias Abstract What’s common between biomechanics studies of human movement and the anima- ted film? Why Eadweard Muybridge and Étienne-Jules Marey are cited in common studies of life sciences (biomechanics), information technology or arts (film, anima- tion, photography or painting)? In this work we would like to demonstrate the bridges between animation and biomechanics to discuss the relevance of the interaction of both for research and pedagogical aim. This investigation results from one milestone of the Equine Biomechanics research project (FCT – PTDC/CVT/113480/2009), the interactive application Motion Analysis Toolkit (MAT) and from the teaching expe- rience in Animation studies. Based on data generated trough motion capture process, MAT is an interactive application for life movement assessment and visualization, allowing to present information obtained from the interaction between specific sci- entific methodologies of Biomechanics, Animation and Programming. Developed trough a multidisciplinary team at MovLab 1 (Laboratory of Interactions and Inter- faces), MAT is a user-friendly application for motion analysis that could be use by biomechanics professionals or animation artists. Keywords: biomechanics; animation; motion capture; data. Introduction: Biomechanics and Animation interactions The first question, “what’s common between biomechanics of human movement and the animated film?”, open a field of very interesting answers and offer several links that should be connected between these two different areas. We can start with the reference of Étienne-Jules Marey (1830-1904) that, through its studies on motion, aerodynamics or cardiology, produced a number of technical innovations that allowed capturing moving image.

Studying time as a subject is important animation, full animation, for both animators and theorists in this eld. Since time construction orthodox animation, denes the meaning of kinetics, the aim is to demonstrate its importance experimental animation. in animation. 1. Introduction Animation is considered to be a temporal art, as one of its main traits is that it takes place in time. Nevertheless, time can also be found in other animation elements, like plot structure, subject, the use of cinematic language, and in movement itself. The construction of time in animated movement is the main subject of this article. The lm by Koji Yamamura [1] Muybridge’s Strings (2011) [2] will be used as a case study to demon- strate the importance of time construction in animation. The basic hypothesis is the following: if the animation artist wants to build a creative approach towards movement, then he or she will under- stand animated time as an artice and consider the creative imagination that surrounds it. Muybridge’s Strings was chosen as the subject of the case study for two reasons: rst, because the author nds his work fascinating; and secondly because in this lm time is constructed by very dierent strategies, so that the lm is a perfect visual example of time construction.
