Book Synopsis Puppetry, Puppet Animation and the Digital Age by : Rolf Giesen
Download or read book Puppetry, Puppet Animation and the Digital Age written by Rolf Giesen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rolf Giesen’s Puppetry, Puppet Animation and the Digital Age explores the unique world of puppetry animation and its application in the digital age. With the advent of digital animation, many individuals see puppetry and 2D animation as being regulated to a niche market. Giesen’s text argues against this viewpoint, by demonstrating the pure aesthetic value they have, as well as examples of some of the greatest cinematic uses of puppets. Such samples include, The Adventures of Prince Achmed, Ladislas Starevich, O’Brien, Harryhausen and Danforth, Trnka and Švankmajer, Aardman and Laika Studios, ParaNorman, and the Boxtrolls. Even live-action blockbusters, such as the Star Wars saga utilize puppetry for costume applications as noted within the text. The use of puppets not only helps create a wonderous world and memorable characters, but is also one of the purest extensions of an artist. Key Features Includes interviews with past and present practitioners of model animation as well as computer animation Reviews of classic and recent entries in both fields Comparison of what is better in stop motion versus computer animation A detailed history of animation and stop motion films
Book Synopsis Smoke and Mirrors - Special Visual Effects B.C. (Before Computers) by : Mark D. Wolf
Download or read book Smoke and Mirrors - Special Visual Effects B.C. (Before Computers) written by Mark D. Wolf and published by . This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visit the realms of The Twilight Zone, journey to The Outer Limits and boldly go on a Star Trek! Read how motion picture and TV special effects were created before computers! From Lon Chaney to Ray Harryhausen, from Georges Melies to George Lucas, meet the multi-talented magicians-many of whom never received screen recognition-who invented ways to conjure up ferocious dinosaurs battling a giant ape in King Kong or the catastrophic natural disasters in Earthquake. They brought people uncomfortably close to Boris Karloff's Frankenstein and the fanciful, beloved Wizard of Oz. During WWII they gave home audiences a taste of distant warfare without risking any actors and in the 1950s they introduced us to destructive invaders from other worlds - without a real national landmark being destroyed. Dozens of rare, unpublished behind-the-scenes photos from classic films and obscure productions reveal the best kept secret tricks of the trade: miniatures, matte paintings, makeup effects, special props, mechanicals, animatronics, stop-motion and more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ray Harryhausens animated creatures sparkled with predatory alertness and subtle quirks of behavior that stamped each with a distinct and memorable personality. His use of stop-motion animation a method of animating movable models and puppets brought dinosaurs and monsters to life on the silver screen. Many animators and special effects wizards, like Phil Tippett of Jurassic Park and Jim Aupperle of Planet of Dinosaurs who are still working on prehistoric-based films, openly credit Ray Harryhausen as having influenced their careers. His films are famous for being among the very best of the genre. The first chapter of this book chronicles Harryhausens for mative years and work on numerous 16mm experiments, beginning with his viewing of King Kong in 1933. The next four chapters cover his four feature-length dinosaur films, The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, The Animal World, One Million Years B.C. and The Valley of Gwangi. These chapters provide extensive information about all aspects of the staging of their stop-motion content and many additional facets of the overall production process. The paleontological accuracy of his saurians from a modern perspective is also examined. A chapter on his work and experiences in the 1970s and beyond discusses potential dinosaur projects, as well as The Golden Voyage of Sinbad, which is not a saurian film, but does include the bat-winged homunculus. An appendix covers a number ofdinosaur-related films that Harryhausen had a hand in.

Download or read book The Dinosaur Filmography written by Mark F. Berry and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From classics like King Kong, to beloved B–movies like The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, to blockbusters like Jurassic Park, it’s easy to see that filmmakers and audiences alike love to see dinosaurs on the screen. This comprehensive filmography, arranged alphabetically by title, contains entries that include basic facts (year of release, country of origin, studio, and running time), followed by a concise plot summary, the author’s critical commentary, information on the production and the people behind it, and secrets of the often-ingenious special effects. Three useful appendices feature films with minor dinosaur content, planned but unfinished dinosaur movies, and the quasi-dinosaurs of Toho Studios. To be included, a movie must depict one or more representations of a “prehistoric reptile.” Inaccurate portrayals are included, as long as the intent is to represent a real or fictional dinosaur. Not eligible are films featuring prehistoric mammals, prehistoric humans or humanoids, and beasts of mythology—unless, of course, the movie also has a dinosaur.
