Books The "book" for this class will be a reader of papers. This year, a lot of those readings will come from a preprint version of an animation textbook written by Rick Parent. We will be "beta-testing" this book. Comments on how it will be distributed will come soon. I will ask everyone to read some of a film book for part of the class. I suggest that you purchase one, and asked to bookstore to get copies of some of my favorites. I recommend that you come to class first to hear about them. There are many books you might want to use for the class. I list some of them here. This list is by no means complete. Books Discussing Software You May Use The Renderman Companion. by Steve Upstill. Published by Addison Wesly. (should be available from the UW Bookstore, borders, or any decent technical bookstore) I recommend the Renderman Companion not because its the reference to Renderman (which you may or may not want to use in the course), but because its worth having as a good general graphics reference. In terms of a reference for how to write programs that talk to Renderman, I actually think you're better off using the RIB file format document, and other online documentation Learning Maya 1.0 for Windows NT.

A NIMATION W ORLD ... AGAZINE - ISSUE 3.12 - March 1999 A Bug's Life: The Art and Making of an Epic of Miniature Proportions book review by Amid Amidi A ll "making of" books are derived from the same mold and if you've read one studio-sanctioned "making of" book, then you've read them all. Jeff Kurtti's A Bug's Life: The Art and Making of an Epic of Miniature Proportions is much like the film there is plenty of visual eye candy that is a joy to look at, but content-wise, it's rather slim. The book is wonderfully designed by Gregory Wakabayashi with a lot of well-chosen production art, stills, concept drawings and the like. Interestingly enough, mixed in with the pre-production artwork is conceptual design work by world-renowned children's illustrator William Joyce, who is also the creator of the CG-animated series, Rolie Polie Olie . In fact, the artwork is so nicely reproduced, many times I was tempted to tear out the beautifully printed images and paste them on my wall. A Bug's Life: The Art and Making of an Epic of Miniature Proportions is a handsome entry in the already crowded marketplace of "making of" and "art of" books. Here's what it all boils down to - one's enjoyment of "making of" books is directly proportional to one's enjoyment of the particular film the book is about. Therefore, if you liked

Animha 96 Introduction Gala Premiere Screening How it all began The Competition ... Washington Arts Centre INTRODUCTION... Throughout 1996, a unique and exciting community based arts/media project was underway in the North of England. ANIMHA 96 was originated to raise awareness and celebrate Cinema's 100th Birthday by uniting people through the magic of the moving image and the universal language of film animation. The ANIMHA 96 project linked communities throughout the Northern Arts Region by providing access to animated film making through animation workshops for scores of people of all ages and backgrounds. Within ANIMHA 96 there were several sub projects or small scale film productions, each exploring the Northern Regions' heritage and culture in diverse and original ways. The common link between these mini productions was a simple love and enthusiasm for film animation among those taking part in the events. HOW IT ALL BEGAN... The idea of ANIMHA 96 was first conceived during the midsummer madness of 1994.

History of Japanese Animation:part one Up to 1945. In Europe, Emile Reynaud and others were making animation as a result of research of the "movie" before inventing a movie. The same trials as its were performed also in our country. For example, they are KAGEE, NOZOKIE, SOUMATOU and UTSUSHIE, etc. Especially UTSUSHI was widely loved by peoples Edo in the city as a feature of the variety halls. The effect of motion and picture of UTSUSHIE, it was comparable to the experiment of Reynaud's. UTSUSHIE was also a non-movie as the Reynaud's was a non-movie. Birth of the true animation in our country had to wait for the appearance of the so-called "DEKOBOUSIINGACHOU" series which compiled the works of J.R.Bray, Raul Barre and others. It is influenced by the animation of the foreign countries released one after another, a cartoonist Outen Shimokawa would begin making animation in 1917. By the method of drawing on a blackboard with chalk at first, after this method went wrong, the blank paper which printed the background was used. The film done using the method of smearing away the place where a background overlaps a person with white paints was "IMOKAWA MUKUZOU:GENKANBAN NO MAKI(Doorkeeper)" (17). It is said that this is the first animation in our country. In a same year, a cartoonist Jun-iti Kouuchi has released "HANAHEKONAI MEITOU NO MAKI(The Fine Sword)"(17) and also Seitarou Kitayama(titler of the major movie campany NIKKATSU) has released "SARUKANI GASSENN(Battle of Apes and Crabs)"(17). It seems that Kouuchi's film obtained the best evaluation in three, and it is said that Kitayama was contained in work from the previous year. So, probably, it should consider as the pioneer of the animation of our country with three persons of SHIMOKAWA and KOUUCHI and KITAYAMA.

XML Other sites Business Resource Center Internet Marketing Planning for Success ... More info Animation Shareware Graphics Animated graphics software Animation Animation Animation basics Animation is created by displaying a series of overlapping images (cells) in rapid succession. Each cell’s image differs only slightly from the ones preceding and following it. When enough of these cells are grouped together, the differences between them create the illusion of motion when played. In traditional animation, cells are drawn and painted by hand, although in recent years the animation industry has been moving away from traditional animation and towards computer-assisted animation. While the concepts used to create the animation are essentially the same, the methods used differ greatly. The key defining element of all animation, and of movies in general, is the number of cells used to create the animation. The more cells a single animation contains, the smoother the motion of animated characters and objects appear to be. The less cells used, the more jerky their movements will appear. In traditional animation, the number of cells becomes the length of the animation in seconds. In computer animation, however, the number of cells contributes to the ultimate size of the animation file. When creating animation on the computer, a balance must be found between animation quality and file size, both of which are affected by the cell count of the animation. Defining the best trade-off point is never easy, but with careful planning and foresight, you can create captivating animations that don’t require unreasonable amounts of disk space.

Mathematics Meets Film Animation In Kansas City Community Lecture Martha Case Gregg and Paul Davis Picture a Hollywood film set—suddenly quiet—as the cast and crew prepare to shoot the next scene. From a canvas chair behind the cameras the gray-haired director barks, “Lights, camera, action!” For Toy Story , the first full-length, fully computer-animated feature film, that classic image needs some retouching. The gray hair is years away for the 1995 hit movie’s crew of technical hot shots. The canvas chair, now ergonomically correct, is in front of a computer. And the technical director seated in that chair is using mathematical tools like functions and B-splines to simulate the lights, position the camera, and animate the characters. “It takes a lot of mathematics to simulate objects that don’t exist,” says Brian Rosen, a technical director at Pixar , the organization that burned 800,000 CPU hours to create Toy Story . Rosen, who received a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Princeton University in 1993, delivered the community lecture, “ Toy Story : Character-Driven Mathematics,” on July 23 at the 1996 SIAM Annual Meeting in Kansas City. For many in the audience, the fascination lay in the use of familiar mathematics—with a timely tie in to the B-splines that had surfaced earlier in the day in Carl de Boor’s John von Neumann lecture on polynomial interpolation—in the novel setting of film animation; for the “community” members in the audience (among them one of the authors), mathematics appeared at each step of the way as an effective, flexible tool without which many of the movie’s effects would not have been possible.

Home Film Directory Contact ... Forum Brickfilms Interviews: Ben B Ben B, aka bhbrenn, aka Egoless Productions. We have enjoyed 9 well done films from this director. His short, Kerouac , won Best Animation in the recent Historical Fiction Contest. His first film, Breakfast of Zen , was one of the first spirtual films on Brickfilms. In fact, most of Egoless's movies have a spiritual theme to them. I caught up with him and posed a few of the unanswerable questions of life to this humble animator. We know you as Egoless Productions . Who are you really? My name is Ben B. I live in Bangor, Maine, USA. I am 30 years old. To earn my daily bread, I teach special education. Why Egoless? Tibetan monks have this practice of making sand mandalas. It is a slow process of making a symbolic design using colored sand. When they are finished they destroy the mandala and dump the sand into a river or a lake. It teaches the monks about impermance and to not be attached. I don't want to be attached to my films. Trying to be egoless is important on any spiritual path. I see from your site that you explore other forms of art, mostly sculptures. What led you into plastic animation? What makes it different that other kinds of artistic expression?

COURSES IN FILM ANIMATION NOTE Students must bear the cost of film stock, processing, printing, and materials and lab fees. FMAN 202 Animation I (6 credits) Prerequisite : Enrollment in the Major in Film Animation or the Minor in Film Animation; or written permission of the School of Cinema with either FMPR 231 or 6 credits in Studio Art. Animation I concentrates on the basic principles of animation concerning motion, tempo and change. A wide variety of animated films from the international field, past and present, are screened and examined for their technique, quality and effect. The use of a stop-motion, frame-by-frame projector, and sophisticated editing/viewing equipment greatly facilitates this analysis. The combination of these screenings with classroom workshops using frame-by-frame video recorders and 16mm cameras in a practical exploration of various media, such as drawings, models, cut-outs, sand, paint and pixillation, makes the world of fantasy that is animation readily and pleasurably accessible. In addition to the fundamentals of animation, students will attend workshops in the technical aspects of operating animation production equipment such as the 16mm Oxberry Animation Stand, the 16mm Bolex camera and the Steenbeck editing table. First year students will use this and other equipment to produce short, original animated films throughout the year.

Search: ABOUT THE ART Cels Original Production Cels Original Production Drawings Hand-Painted Limited Edition Cels ... The Move To Computerized Animation Cels Cel is short for celluloid acetate, the transparent material upon which traditionally animated films are created. Each movement of a character requires an individually hand-painted cel. One or more cels are then laid over a background painting and photographed in an animation camera to create a frame of the finished film. By painting on clear cels, animators are able to create the illusion of life as characters move throughout the environment created by the background painting. Through our affiliation with the world’s leading animation studios, Animation Connection offers our collectors an opportunity to own these one-of-a-kind cels, as well as several types of limited edition cels. Original Production Cels Production cels are the one-of-a-kind original cels that were used in the creation of an animated film or television show. Each has been hand-painted by studio artists on a piece of celluloid acetate, and has been photographed over a background painting to create a frame of the finished production. Production cels are highly sought after by collectors, with very rare pieces from the early days of animation fetching prices in the tens, and even the hundreds of thousands of dollars. See Why So Few Vintage Pieces Have Survived for more information on the rarity of early production cels.

Festivals are so often a matter of civic pride and self-indulgence or an excuse for nothing happening for the rest of the year. Not an accusation that could be levelled at Warwick Arts Centre. So, why Blink? Blink began life in April 1995, when a group of enthusiastic students and a cluster of aspiring film makers met to talk about funding possibilities with the new lottery schemes. One of the criteria for lottery funding was that there had to be public exhibition of the work. Not wishing to spoil the party or dampen the enthusiasm, I arranged a local film makers' screening session. The event was an unqualified success and there was demand and a clear need to repeat the event on a regular basis. From this grew the Regional Showcase screenings which take place in January and June each year. In addition to showing the films and gathering makers together in one place, where they can share ideas, I have introduced brief presentations from practitioners who illustrate certain aspects of the working world, to inform and encourage.

80. What Is Anime Essay - Robert's Anime Corner Anime in the US refers specifically to Japanese animation, which inand of itself is a unique style of storytelling and film making. http://www.animecorner.com/opinions_whatisanime.htm

Home Anime Store Opinions What is Anime? (I couldn't have said it better myself!) Essay by Elaine Barlow What is Anime? In other words, for every category that there is for live action films, there is one for anime. In many ways anime is also a state of mind; a state of understanding that many Americans have trouble getting to. The realization that animation is an acceptable medium for dramatic story telling and not something meant only for children and political satire, is a concept that the American public may never reach which is the one of the main reasons why anime has not struck powerfully in the U.S. The other main reason is that the media has a twisted perception of Japanese animation, believing that it is all sex and violence (the opposite of the wholesome children's animation of the United States) and hasn't expanded its reach into the truth about this wonderful realm of animation. It is these misinformed perceptions and lack of cooperation amongst anime fans that have kept anime very much an underground genre. What it comes down to is this. See it. All of it. Not just the sex and the violence. Not just the science fiction and the sword and sorcery. Not just the heavy drama or historical accounts. See it all. Experience it all as much as you can in both subtitled and dubbed format. Experience the Japanese language and the English adaptations. That is the only way for you to know what anime is all about....
