  • “The Happytime Murders” by Helen Lutz
    “The Happytime Murders” By Helen Lutz As we go along the journey of life, we find many things which just shouldn’t be but happen every day. The anonymous bullying of a school child – shouldn’t be, but is. Guns freely being made on 3-D printers – shouldn’t be, but are. Muppets spouting profanities and having raucous sex – shouldn’t be, but is in the new movie “The Happytime Murders.” Los Angeles – sometime in the future ... People co-exist with puppets, however, puppets are definitely second class citizens. Phil Phillips, a blue skinned, chimney smoking, alcoholic private investigator puppet (Bill Barretta) opens the movie with an old Jack Webb “Dragnet” style narration of another day in the city. Phillips, the only puppet to have once been a police officer, now works various puppet cases after being part of a fatal mishap. Approached by a seductive Sandra puppet hoping that Phil will take her mysterious, nymphomania case, leads Phil to a puppet porn shop (it would be nice to un-see the action between the cow and octopus). A robbery gone wrong while Phil is in the back looking at store files, leads to a deadly scene – stuffing everywhere – enter the police and Phil’s old partner Detective Connie Edwards (Melissa McCarthy). There’s obviously no love lost between the two. Phil knows the owner of the puppet sex shop from the good old days when he starred with Phil’s brother in a popular 80’s kids’ show “The Happytime Gang.” Life after the show has gone downhill for most of the cast.

In this book, we also want to convey a sense of the animator’s place in the making of the fi lm and their perspective on what hap- pened, along with their professional journey leading up to that point. Steve Segal was born in Richmond, Virginia, in 1949. He made his fi rst animated fi lms as a high school student before studying Art at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he continued to produce award- winning, independent ani- mated shorts. Aft er graduating, Segal opened a traditional animation studio in Richmond, making commercials and educational fi lms for ten years. Aft er completing the cult animated fi lm Futuropolis (1984), which he co- directed with Phil Trumbo, Segal moved to Hollywood and became interested in com- puter animation.

  • The Effect of Exposure to an Agressive Cartoon on Children's Play. INSTITUTION Beaver Coll., Glenside, Pa
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 055 297 CG 006 673 AUTHOR Cameron, Samuel M.; And Others TITLE The Effect of Exposure to an Agressive Cartoon on Children's Play. INSTITUTION Beaver Coll., Glenside, Pa. PUB DATE Apr 71 NOTE 10p.; Paper presented at Annual Meeting of Eastern Psychological Association, New York, N. Y., April 15-17, 1971 EDRS PRICE MF-S0.65 HC-$3.29 DESCRIPTORS *Aggression; *Behavior; Behavior Theories; Learning; Pictorial Stimuli; *Play; *Preschool Children; *Stimulus Behavior; Violence; Visual Stimuli ABSTRACT The authors discuss their replications of 2 prominent studies in the area of modeling aggressive behavior; those of Lovaas and Bandura. In the first, they predicted that, given the same socio-economic background, there would be no differences between black and white children in the amount of aggressive play subsequent to viewing an aggressive cartoon. No significant differences are shown between the experimental and control groups for either blacks or whites. The second study, in which 43 pre-schoolers were divided into 3 subject groups, varied the level of aggressive content by showing a different cartoon to each group. It was assumed that the children exposed to the most aggression would emit the most aggressive responses in a subsequent free play period. Again, no significant differences were found. The authors discuss their inability to demonstrate a previously well-documented effect. (TL) TheEffect of Exposure to cm Aggressive Cartoon on Children's Play' - Samuel M, Cameron, Linda K Abraham, and Jean B, Chernicoff Beaver College A series of studies by Bandura and associates (Bandura, Ross, and Ross, 1961; i963) has indicated that children will model novel aggressive behaviors shown by a mai life, film, or ''cartoon"model , These studies also show that aggressive play behaviors other than the ravel ones being modeled will also show an increase subsequent to the child's viewing an aggressive scene-.

With an early lead in feature film production, California has historically been home to the greatest concentration of film industry talent in the U.S., as well as an extensive web of ancillary products, infrastructure and services. But these days, California has competition. Production centers across the globe offer U.S. production companies an enticing combination of film incentives, a skilled workforce and available infrastructure. As a result, U.S. feature films are made all over the world. Among the unique advantages that the film industry provides to local economies are: 1. It is a high-wage industry. A recent report commissioned by the County of Los Angeles revealed that the average wage in the Film and Digital Media Industry in Los Angeles County is $117,000, which is 95 percent higher compared to the county-wide average of $59,900.1 2.
