Worth ADVISORY BOARD Nancy Brown Linda R. Kaminow Irene K Leiwant Daisy Merey, MD Irene G. Ostroff Mission S tatement Israel Cancer Association USA (ICA USA) is a nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization established in Palm Beach, Florida. Our mission is to raise funds for fellowship grants that support cancer research conducted by award-winning scien- tists at leading hospitals, universities and institutions throughout Israel. Uniquely, 100% of fellowship funding goes directly to the scientist – not the institution, nor for our overhead. Israel Cancer Association (ICA) established in 1952, is the leading and largest health-related organization in Israel, but receives no government funding, depending entirely upon private donations. 2751 S. Dixie Highway, Suite 3A, West Palm Beach, Florida 33405 561.832.9277 www.icausa.org Rob Minkoff is a Film Director best known for the Academy Award–winning animated feature “The Lion King.” Rob was born & raised in Palo Alto, California, where his interest in drawing and animation was sparked by watching Super 8 mm cartoons, including Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty,” his father kept at his Audio Visual Center office, allowing him to study them one frame at a time. He attended California Institute of the Arts in the Character Animation program in 1980. That same year, he met legendary Animation Director, Chuck Jones, creator of “Pepe le Pew” and the “Road Runner & Coyote” (among many others), after a tribute to Mel Blanc at the Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater. He was first given the opportunity to work at Disney as an Intern under the Mentorship of Disney Legend, Eric Larson, during the summer of 1982. The following year, Rob was hired by Disney as an Inbetweener on “The Black Cauldron” (1985). He was then asked to design characters for “The Great Mouse Detective,” and afterward promoted to Supervising Animator (1986). He took time off from Disney to work as a character designer for “The Brave Little Toaster” (1987). And then returned to Disney where he co-wrote the song “Good Company” for the film “Oliver & Company” (1988). Later, he joined the production team on “The Little Mermaid” (1989) where he designed the character of Ursula the Sea Witch. Rob made his directorial debut with two Roger Rabbit shorts, “Tummy Trouble” (1989) and “Roller Coaster Rabbit” (1990). His first foray into Live-Action was with the theme park short, “Mickey’s Audition,” featuring Mel Brooks, which served as a pre-show for an attraction at the Disney-MGM Studio Tour (1992). In 1992 Rob began working on Disney’s 32nd animated feature, “The Lion King,” with co-director, Roger Allers (1994). Following the success of “The Lion King,” Rob left Disney to work with Columbia Pictures on the Stuart Little films, based on the books by E.B White. The films combined live-action with computer animation, marking an early effort in the combination of those mediums. He returned to Disney for “The Haunted Mansion” starring Eddie Murphy (2003). Traveled to China for “The Forbidden Kingdom” co-starring Jackie Chan and Jet Li (2008). And then returned to the world of animation for DreamWorks’ “Mr. Peabody & Sherman” (2014), a big screen adaptation of the Jay Ward cartoons that aired during the seminal 1960’s animated TV series, “The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.” Rob is currently developing several projects, including “Blazing Samurai,” an animated retelling of Mel Brook’s classic comedy, “Blazing Saddles.” As well as “Wolf Totem,” an animated film adaptation of the best-selling Chinese novel. He currently resides in Bel Air, California with his wife, Crystal Kung Minkoff and their two children, Max and Zoe.

  • Motion Enriching Using Humanoide Captured Motions
    MASTER THESIS: MOTION ENRICHING USING HUMANOIDE CAPTURED MOTIONS STUDENT: SINAN MUTLU ADVISOR : A NTONIO SUSÌN SÀNCHEZ SEPTEMBER, 8TH 2010 COURSE: MASTER IN COMPUTING LSI DEPERTMANT POLYTECNIC UNIVERSITY OF CATALUNYA 1 Abstract Animated humanoid characters are a delight to watch. Nowadays they are extensively used in simulators. In military applications animated characters are used for training soldiers, in medical they are used for studying to detect the problems in the joints of a patient, moreover they can be used for instructing people for an event(such as weather forecasts or giving a lecture in virtual environment). In addition to these environments computer games and 3D animation movies are taking the benefit of animated characters to be more realistic. For all of these mediums motion capture data has a great impact because of its speed and robustness and the ability to capture various motions. Motion capture method can be reused to blend various motion styles. Furthermore we can generate more motions from a single motion data by processing each joint data individually if a motion is cyclic. If the motion is cyclic it is highly probable that each joint is defined by combinations of different signals. On the other hand, irrespective of method selected, creating animation by hand is a time consuming and costly process for people who are working in the art side. For these reasons we can use the databases which are open to everyone such as Computer Graphics Laboratory of Carnegie Mellon University. Creating a new motion from scratch by hand by using some spatial tools (such as 3DS Max, Maya, Natural Motion Endorphin or Blender) or by reusing motion captured data has some difficulties.

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.

  • Animated Stereotypes –
    Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Alexander Lindgren, 36761 Pro gradu-avhandling i engelska språket och litteraturen Handledare: Jason Finch Fakulteten för humaniora, psykologi och teologi Åbo Akademi 2020 ÅBO AKADEMI – FACULTY OF ARTS, PSYCHOLOGY AND THEOLOGY Abstract for Master’s Thesis Subject: English Language and Literature Author: Alexander Lindgren Title: Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Supervisor: Jason Finch Abstract: Walt Disney Animation Studios is currently one of the world’s largest producers of animated content aimed at children. However, while Disney often has been associated with themes such as childhood, magic, and innocence, many of the company’s animated films have simultaneously been criticized for their offensive and quite problematic take on race and ethnicity, as well their heavy reliance on cultural stereotypes. This study aims to evaluate Disney’s portrayals of racial and ethnic minorities, as well as determine whether or not the nature of the company’s portrayals have become more culturally sensitive with time. To accomplish this, seven animated feature films produced by Disney were analyzed. These analyses are of a qualitative nature, with a focus on imagology and postcolonial literary theory, and the results have simultaneously been compared to corresponding criticism and analyses by other authors and scholars. Based on the overall results of the analyses, it does seem as if Disney is becoming more progressive and culturally sensitive with time. However, while most of the recent films are free from the clearly racist elements found in the company’s earlier productions, it is quite evident that Disney still tends to rely heavily on certain cultural stereotypes.

  • 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.

  • Top Questions About Character Animation
    Top Questions About Character Animation What are some of the exciting aspects of character animation, and how is it different than other computer animation forms? The phrase computer animation is often used as a catch-all for many computer generated effects including spinning logos, Flash programming on the Web or special effects in movies. These are not character animation. Character animation is the process of giving life to a character, whether it is a dog that can talk, a drawn person or an animated object. Character animation creates personality. How long does it take one person to create one minute of animation? This is difficult to pinpoint, but it can take one animator about 16 – 20 weeks of full-time work to produce 60 seconds of animation.1 At Pixar Animation Studios, due to their high level of quality control, animators have been known to work on two minutes of film for a year or more. How many animators typically work on an animated feature film? It depends on the studio and its needs, so anywhere from 20 – 80 animators could be working on an animated feature film. What is the biggest myth about character animation? A lot of people believe that the computer does all of the work for the animator, but the reality is that the animator is only using the computer as a tool to create detailed animation frame by frame. What are some of the most challenging aspects of character animation? Character animators work in fun, collaborative, exciting and detailed environments. They need to have a high level of patience while working with the tiny movements of a character frame by frame.
