Nickelodeon Debuts First Full-Length Stop-Motion Special, It's a Spongebob Christmas!, Dec
Nickelodeon Debuts First Full-Length Stop-Motion Special, It's A SpongeBob Christmas!, Dec. 9, At 7:30 p.m. (ET/PT) John Goodman Lends His Voice as Santa Claus in Half-Hour Special; Companion DVD, CD and Ebook to Be Released in November LOS ANGELES, Oct. 31, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Nickelodeon celebrates the holidays with its first full-length stop-motion animated special, It's A SpongeBob Christmas!, premiering on Nickelodeon Sunday, Dec. 9, at 7:30 p.m. (ET/PT), following its CBS television premiere (11/23). It's A SpongeBob Christmas! was inspired by the classic Rankin/Bass specials (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Comin' to Town) and the popular SpongeBob song released in 2009, "Don't Be a Jerk (It's Christmas)," co-written by Tom Kenny (voice of SpongeBob) and Andy Paley. The half-hour special features John Goodman as Santa Claus. (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121031/NY03791 ) In It's A SpongeBob Christmas!, Plankton turns everybody in Bikini Bottom from nice to naughty by feeding them his special jerktonium-laced fruitcake all in an effort to get his Christmas wish--the Krabby Patty formula. The Nickelodeon premiere will include bonus scenes featuring a stop-motion version of the character "Patchy," also voiced by Tom Kenny. Work began on the It's A SpongeBob Christmas! special in October 2011 at Screen Novelties production studio, where the artists worked closely with Paul Tibbitt (Executive Producer), Steve Hillenburg (Creator) and Vincent Waller (Creative Director) to insure the two-dimensional cartoon characters were properly translated into three-dimensional puppets.

2019 Deck GLAS.Pdf
GLAS MISSION GLAS Animation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded in 2014. Our core mission is to cultivate and promote the art and science of animation. We provide a unique platform for independent animation, champion diverse and underrepresented voices, and emphasize exceptional directors and artists that push visual, conceptual, and narrative boundaries within the cinematic artform. We are a community-driven organization that not only exhibits animated films, but creates a context and language for a shared understanding and appreciation of animation in the United States. To accomplish this we have launched two programs within our organization: the GLAS Animation Festival and the GLAS Animation Grant. The GLAS Animation Festival creates a unique culture and community for artists, filmmakers, and film enthusiasts in the US, and more specifically the Bay Area, to critically engage with animation as an artform. The GLAS Animation Grant program allows for the artists in this community to create work and express their visions across the world. We feel that in order for us to fulfill our mission it is important not only to provide a platform for groundbreaking independent animation, but also to help artists working in the United States create it. The two programs are designed to compliment each other directly; the artists and films we bring to the festival inspires the community while the grant supports the creation of new pieces of work from within that community that will then be exhibited internationally. Independent animation is an important part of the art and filmmaking community that has been, in the United States, greatly overlooked.

Sometimes when you’re so into your work or animation your responsibilities get pushed to the side and ignored. But in the case of doing what is right you might find yourself pushing what you truly love to do aside for a moment to pay attention to what is truly impor- tant. This issue was a lot of fun to make but do to my personal civic duties I had to serve Jury Duty for the County of Los Angeles. Since we are such a small publication putting out this very popular publication missing two weeks of work can greatly affect the deadline. For this I am very sorry but it happens. In my case this happens every year and there is no getting out of it. But as we grow so will our staff and in the future such deadlines will be met punctually. In this issue you will find a great inside look at the studio Screen Novelties.They are truly a bunch of great guys that really are dedicated to making stop motion animation and their insight about the subject and their careers is really wonderful.

A POKÉBALANCING ACT: THE MANAGEMENT OF JAPANESE CULTURAL “ODOR” IN POKÉMON NICHOLAS RAES 216 Pages In this project, I analyzed two seasons of the Pokémon anime to discover patterns of cultural “odor” management employed by the show’s producers and editors. In the first season of Pokémon , the producers of the anime included many symbolic representations of Japanese cultural artifacts within the visual features of the show. However, between the Japanese and US versions of the season, most instances of Japanese linguistic text were either “scrubbed” from scenes entirely or replaced with English text. These techniques struck a careful balance between including and excluding Japanese specificity within the first season, subtly expressing to non- Japanese audiences the Japanese origin of the show. However, in the twentieth season, producers removed symbolic representations of Japanese culture almost entirely – replacing these instead with symbols indicative of Hawaiian culture.
