Welcome On behalf of the Vice Chancellor, I’m delighted to welcome all ‘Beyond the Frame’ conference delegates to Canterbury Christ Church University, hosted by the School of Media, Art & Design (Faculty of Arts & Humanities). The Faculty combines excellence in research and teaching and learning: all programmes of study are research led, focused on employability and student oriented. Colleagues from across the Faculty contributed to the REF 2014 with 90% of the Faculty’s research recognised as world leading or internationally significant. For the School of Media, Art & Design, these teaching and learning and research contexts literally have animation at the heart of their ‘storyboards’ (no pun intended). The School brings industry and academia together to teach, to learn and to research the various forms of animation, producing graduates who have equal facility in practice and scholarship. I wish the conference every success over its three days as it grapples animatedly with the practice-scholarship nexus in animation. Dr Keith McLay Dean of the Faculty of Arts & Humanities President’s Address Welcome to the 2015 Society for Animation Studies Conference. This years’ conference, in beautiful, historic Canterbury sees us back in the UK after five years and we are lucky to be in such a wonderful setting with great links to local institutions, all key areas of animation education in the UK. I extend my thanks to our hosts, Canterbury Christ Church University, and hope that they enjoy having the SAS in town! That the bumper program is our biggest yet, reflects the growth and increasing diversity in animation studies as a discipline over the last few years. It is very exciting to see so many topics presented, though it will be a struggle to choose what to attend! It is great to see so many new members on the delegate list and I hope that they, along with our established members, will continue to support the SAS through the coming years. We have a lot planned! Special thanks of course go to chair Chris Pallant and his conference team, particularly as he is not only organizing this massive conference (no easy task!) but has recently joined the SAS board as Vice President, a role which he has embraced. The program Chris and his team have put together consists of a wide range of paper sessions, roundtable discussions, micro talks, keynote speeches and special events! I look forward to catching up with you all and wish you a wonderful conference. Best wishes, Dr Nichola Dobson University of Edinburgh, UK President of the Society for Animation Studies #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 2 Conference Chair’s Welcome It is a serious undertaking hosting the Society for Animation Studies, and I owe a great debt of thanks to the many individuals who have helped to make this week possible. I would also like to formally thank both the Faculty Dean and my Head of School, Prof. David Bradshaw, for supporting this conference. My thanks also goes to our sponsors whose names (and fancy logos) are printed on the back of this programme. We have a packed conference schedule ahead of us and I am just as excited as you to soak up as much of this animation goodness as humanly possible! Having said that, Canterbury is a beautiful city, and I will understand if you sneak off for a breather at some point during all the hustle and bustle of conferencing – you may be pleased to learn that your Delegate Pass grants you free access to the Cathedral for the full week (religious or not, it is worth a visit – it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Have fun!!

These works have been produced by conference delegates and, as well as encouraging viewers to explore beyond the framework of the traditional conference programme, they also encourage contemplation regarding the conceptual and material boundaries of animated spaces and objects. Large Scale Exhibition/Presentation Augustine Arts (AA) ‘Animation on Wheels’ AAg Courtyard (The Vardo Project Space) A vardo is the Romany word for a wagon or caravan. The Romany vardo owned and maintained by Canterbury Christ Church University is a ‘Marriage Wagon’, constructed c. 1908. Selected by Chris Pallant ‘Libretto’ AAg04 A new D-Scope® installation by TROPE, where flocks of books burst from the darkness and fly past in a riot of knowledge. TROPE is a collaboration between contemporary artists Carol MacGillivray and Bruno Mathez. The Anglo-French team celebrates motion as a metaphor for being, through breathing life into inanimate objects. The artworks are playful and hybrid, made using an immersive system of concrete animation called the D-Scope® where time is literally choreographed. TROPE create audio-visual, kinetic worlds where an audience can move freely, encountering the art in a synaesthetic and immersive way. These are mixed reality, embodied artworks that cannot be understood viewed on a computer screen; ‘You have to be there’. #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 5 ‘Home Cinema’ AAg01 Home Cinema consists of three pieces, altogether presented in approx. 40 min. The presentation focuses on the work of Czech visual artist Milada Maresova (1901 – 1987). Organised by Eliška Děcká Between Shadow and Light AAg01 This animated installation is framed by the historical use of sand that was spread across the floors of Jewish houses in order to muffle the sound of movement inside during times of persecution. Commissioned by the Museum of Jewish culture in Braganca, north of Portugal, the installation is located at the heart of the final exhibition room and projected onto one of the side surfaces of a tall monolith, 1.60m wide by 4m high. This non-narrative sand animation was designed to not only create an atmospheric interpretation of the sense of displacement and concealment that defined long periods of Jewish history, but also to represent the plight of “the outsider” throughout history. “Between Shadow and Light” was created and designed by Pedro Serrazina, animated by Isabel Alves, and with sound design by Fernando Mota. Produced by Modo Imago, June 2015. Vitrine Installations Augustine House (AH) – SAS Zone, Second Floor 1. Dr Mermaid and the Abovemarine Mark Eliott and Jack McGrath 2010 Narration and script editing: Tim Eliott, Soundtrack music: Michael Kennett, Compositing and creative assistance: Vanessa White. #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 6 Screened Animation, cabinet of glass models and sketches from the project. Along with its marine environmental messages, this otherwise whimsical work produced at Sydney college of the Arts and set at Bondi Beach has as its subtext the perception of a need to create local mythology as a way of finding connection to place. 2. Slow Growth Improvisation #2 Jack McGrath and Mark Eliott 2011 Screened animation, Glass object. This piece, begun at Canberra Glassworks, references the growth of corals as well as ice crystals. To exhibit the static glass object together with the process of its evolution is to ‘have your cake and eat it’. 3. Experiments in living Glass #1 Jack McGrath and Mark Eliott 2009 Soundtrack: Michael Kennett Projected animation, revolving glass object, sound. A coral-inspired sculpture, illuminated by a projection of imagery generated by its making, is also a revolving intervention – casting a shadow on to the screen as if in dialogue with its digital offspring. 4. Experiments in Living glass #2 Jack McGrath and Mark Eliott 2015 Projected animation, glass objects on sand, sound. This work is an animated life cycle of the glass object in a still-life installation through which it is projected. It grows from a blip and heals after accidents during the course of its making. Life continues in bubbles, which break loose and drift ‘beyond the frame’. 5. The Magic Lantern Bryan Hawkins A collection of original artefacts related to the Magic Lantern tradition. #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 7 MONDAY 13 JULY #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 8 TUESDAY 14 JULY #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 9 WEDNESDAY 15 JULY #SAS2015 / @sas2015beyond 10 Maureen Furniss - Keynote Speaker 1 Animation History beyond the Frame Animation studies literature has been growing steadily for the last twenty years. However, we have not documented very much of animation history. This presentation asks us to consider which histories we are researching and which histories remain un-documented—and how these divisions have been set. When we discuss the creative process in relation to animation, we generally focus on the productions themselves, but I will be focusing on the creative process related to the writing of animation history. Today, what we think of as animation history in many ways has been defined by the very first animation historians, who published books that are considered standard references in our field. What we scholars publish now will significantly define the scope of history in years to come, by informing our students and emerging historians about what we see as the most significant examples of animation, the productions most worthy of documentation.

Under the terms of this agree- ment, the Florida- based restaurant would now hold exclusivity over Disney’s array of animated characters, and working alongside US toy manufacturers could license collectible toys as part of its meal packages based on characters from the studio’s animated features Beauty and the Beast (Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise, 1991), Aladdin (Ron Clements and John Musker, 1992), Th e Lion King (Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff , 1994), Pocahontas (Mike Gabriel and Eric Goldberg, 1995) and Th e Hunchback of Notre Dame (Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise, 1996).1 Produced by Pixar Animation Studio as its fi rst computer- animated feature fi lm but distributed by Disney, Toy Story (John Lasseter, 1995) was likewise subject to this new commercial deal and made commensu- rate with Hollywood’s increasingly synergistic relationship with the fast food market.

  • Animation: Types
    Animation: Animation is a dynamic medium in which images or objects are manipulated to appear as moving images. In traditional animation, images are drawn or painted by hand on transparent celluloid sheets to be photographed and exhibited on film. Today most animations are made with computer generated (CGI). Commonly the effect of animation is achieved by a rapid succession of sequential images that minimally differ from each other. Apart from short films, feature films, animated gifs and other media dedicated to the display moving images, animation is also heavily used for video games, motion graphics and special effects. The history of animation started long before the development of cinematography. Humans have probably attempted to depict motion as far back as the Paleolithic period. Shadow play and the magic lantern offered popular shows with moving images as the result of manipulation by hand and/or some minor mechanics Computer animation has become popular since toy story (1995), the first feature-length animated film completely made using this technique. Types: Traditional animation (also called cel animation or hand-drawn animation) was the process used for most animated films of the 20th century. The individual frames of a traditionally animated film are photographs of drawings, first drawn on paper. To create the illusion of movement, each drawing differs slightly from the one before it. The animators' drawings are traced or photocopied onto transparent acetate sheets called cels which are filled in with paints in assigned colors or tones on the side opposite the line drawings. The completed character cels are photographed one-by-one against a painted background by rostrum camera onto motion picture film.

  • Overview of History of Irish Animation
    Overview of History of Irish Animation i) The history of animation here and the pattern of its development, ii) ii) The contemporary scene, iii) iii) Funding and support, iv) iv) The technological advancement, which can allow filmmakers do more and do it more excitingly, v) v) The educational background. i) History and Development. The history of animation in Ireland is comparable to the history of live action film in Ireland in that in the early years it offered the promise of much to come and stopped really before it got started; indeed in the final analysis animation has even far less to show for itself than its early live action cousin. One outstanding exception is the pioneering work of James Horgan. Horgan became involved in cinema at the end of the 19th century when he acquired a Lumiere camera and established his own moving picture exhibition company for the south show to his audiences - mostly religious events. However soon his eager mind began to turn to the Munster region. As well as projecting regular international shows, Horgan shot local footage to look into cinematography in a scientific way and in fact he made some money by patenting a cog for film traction in the camera, which was widely used. He also experimented with Polaroid film. He then began to dabble in stop frame work - animation - around the year 1909 and considering that the first animation was made in 1906, this is quite significant. His most famous and most popular piece was his dancing Youghal Clock Tower - where the town's best known landmark has to hop into the frame and "manipulate" itself frame by frame into its rightful place in the main street in Youghal.

  • The Uses of Animation 1
    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

  • List Article – Top 3 Best Adult Animated Series on Television For
    List Article – Top 3 Best Adult Animated Series On Television For a few decades, cartoons were only for children. Either they were filled with kid-friendly story lines or they were “PC” enough that everyone could enjoy them. What a terrible world... Luckily, something fantastic occurred in the late 80’s: adult animation went mainstream. All of a sudden, it was cool to be in college and watching cartoons. Sometimes the shows were good, other times they were odd and still others were just plain terrible. After 25 years, tons of shows have come and gone, with only a few standing out as the best of the best. Here are my top 3 adult animated series of all time: 3) Family Guy By the late 1990’s when we thought we had seen in all, Seth MacFarlane arrived. After a few years of animating children’s cartoons, Seth brought to the table one of the raunchiest, most terrible and insulting programs we had ever seen. Family Guy is the 3rd best adult cartoon in history. Another record-breaking series from Fox, the show centers on the Griffin family from Rhode Island. Peter (the idiot), Lois (the sane one), Chris (the Peter-in-training), Meg (the ugly one) and baby Stewie (the evil one), along with the family dog, Brian (the pretentious one) spend their days living lives of greed, lust, violence and every other major sin known to man. Every episode is filled with hilarious moments, mainly from the flashback cutaways, which have now become a standard in all animation.
