  • Historical Film Notes by Jerry Beck
    UCLA Preserved Animation Website: HISTORICAL FILM NOTES BY JERRY BECK Theatre De Hula Hula (19--) Here is one in a long list of mystery films from the silent era. Clearly designed to be shown either in a vaudeville house or at a special exhibition requiring several musicians to accompany the action, it looks even to have had a specific score to match movements of the dancers. The film is processed in reverse to provide a negative effect that imparts an appropriate darkened-theater ambience to the proceedings. The bottom third of the picture is an animation “cycle” (a series of drawings repeated over and over) which gives a furious feel to the musicians. Most silent animation is based on wordplay and gag situations, but here the comical dance routines represent a wonderful early use of animation created for purely humorous effect. The animation itself is quite funny and charming, but those responsible for this delightful little gem probably will remain unknown. The Enchanted Drawing (1900) Cartoonist J. Stuart Blackton (1875-1941) was born in England and immigrated to the United States at the age of ten. In 1895, after a brief stint in vaudeville, Blackton became a reporter and cartoonist for the New York Evening World. A year later, Blackton was working for Thomas Edison’s film company, where he appeared on screen (as he does here) doing “Lightning Sketches” -- drawing at a rapid speed to the delight of onlookers. Inspired by Edison’s motion pictures, Blackton co-founded the Vitagraph studio to create films and distribute them to early nickelodeons.

  • 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.

Either glue the two together or tape the edges between the tabs. Bend the tabs upward to provide a surface to attach the side pieces (from page 2). 2010-02-16 Michael A.

Connect the tabs on end “A” to end “B”, using tape or glue. Four sections are needed to wrap around the circumference of the base (on page 1). An X-acto knife is recommended to cut the slits out of the side panels. The dark color emphasizes the contrast of the animation strip.

  • The Animation Industry: Technological Changes, Production Challenges, and Global Shifts
    THE ANIMATION INDUSTRY: TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES, PRODUCTION CHALLENGES, AND GLOBAL SHIFTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hyejin Yoon, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Edward J. Malecki, Adviser Professor Nancy Ettlinger Adviser Graduate Program in Geography Professor Darla K. Munroe ABSTRACT Animated films have grown in popularity as expanding markets (such as TV and video) and new technologies (notably computer graphics imagery) have broadened both the production and consumption of cartoons. As a consequence, more animated films are produced and watched in more places, as new “worlds of production” have emerged. The animation production system, specialized and distinct from film production, relies on different technologies and labor skills. Therefore, its globalization has taken place differently from live-action film production, although both are structured to a large degree by the global production networks (GPNs) of the media conglomerates. This research examines the structure and evolution of the animation industry at the global scale. In order to investigate these, 4,242 animation studios from the Animation Industry Database are used. The spatial patterns of animation production can be summarized as, 1) dispersion of the animation industry, 2) concentration in world cities, such as Los Angeles and New York, 3) emergence of specialized animation cities, such as Annecy and Angoulême in France, and 4) significant concentrations of animation studios in some Asian countries, such as India, South Korea and the Philippines. In order to understand global production networks (GPNs), networks of studios in 20 cities are analyzed.

  • Introduction
    Introduction “this is the story of gerald mccloy and the strange thing that happened to that little boy.” These words, despite their singsong cadence and children’s-book diction, ushered in a new age of the American cartoon marked by a maturity widely perceived to be lacking in the animated shorts of Disney Studios and Warner Bros. Released in November 1950, Gerald McBoing Boing instantly made its production studio, United Productions of America (UPA), a major name in the Hollywood cartoon industry, netting the studio its first Oscar win two years after it began making shorts for Columbia’s Screen Gems imprint. Six years later, in 1956, every single short nominated in the Best Animated Short Film category was a UPA cartoon.1 Gerald McBoing Boing, a seven-minute Dr. Seuss–penned short about a small boy who finds himself unable to speak in words—only disruptive sound effects emerge from his mouth—became a box office sensation as well as a critical success. TheNew York Times observed, “Audiences have taken such a fancy to this talented young man that there has been a heap of inquiries about him and his future plans.”2 TheWashington Post called it “so refreshing and so badly needed . that its creators, United Productions and director Robert Cannon, rate major salutes,” and international publications such as the Times of India dubbed it “the first really fresh cartoon work since Disney burst on the scene.”3 The qualities that made UPA stand out—an abstract, graphic sensibility marked by simplified shapes, bold colors unmodulated by rounding effects or shadow, and a forceful engagement with the two-dimensional surface of the frame, as well as an insistence on using human characters—convinced audi- ences that it was aiming for an adult demographic while also retaining a childlike heart, positioning itself as a popular explorer of the human 1 Bashara-Cartoon Vision.indd 1 17/12/18 7:27 PM condition.
