From Mister Magoo to Papa Smurf by Gerard Baldwin Pdf

From Mr. Magoo to Papa Smurf chronicles the story of how television rescued animation and how animation learned to make films at drastically reduced prices in incredibly short time frames. From the 1920s through the 1950s the production and release of animated cartoons were in the care of the major Hollywood studios; the "shorts" didn't make much money but theater-goes liked them and characters such as Bugs Bunny, Donald Duck, Tom 'n Jerry and Woody Woodpecker were, and still are, popular icons. The sudden expansion of television was changing the movie business and the major film studios had to restructure or close. They certainly did not need to make animated cartoons and lose money. Without subsidy, animation, a cottage industry at best, seemed doomed to extinction. It seemed, at the time, as if only Disney would survive. Baldwin's book tells the story of an aspiring young artist who dreams of being a great mural painter. The idea of being just another screen cartoonist was not a role he found appealing but he needed a job. He learned. He grew, and with growth came the realization that he was perfectly suited to what he finally perceived as exciting potential in the art of animation. From Mr. Magoo to Papa Smurf is a great read for those of us who grew up watching cartoons and always wondered how they came to be.

When Magoo Flew by Adam Abraham Pdf

What do Franklin Roosevelt, Dr. Seuss, the U.S. Navy, and Mr. Magoo have in common? They are all part of the surprising story of the pioneering cartoon studio UPA (United Productions of America). Throughout the 1950s, a group of artists ran a business that broke all the rules, pushing animated films beyond the fluffy fantasy of the Walt Disney Studio and the crash-bang anarchy of Warner Bros. Instead, UPA’s films were innovative and graphically bold—the cartoon equivalent to modern art. When Magoo Flew is the first book-length study to chronicle the complete story of this unique American enterprise. The book features cameo appearances by Aldous Huxley, James Thurber, Orson Welles, Judy Garland, Robert Goulet, Jim Backus, Eddie Albert, and Woody Allen, as well as a select filmography of the best of UPA. Ebook Edition Note: The ebook has three images redacted: figures 1, 2, and 51.

Walt Disney by Neal Gabler Pdf

The definitive portrait of one of the most important cultural figures in American history: Walt Disney. Walt Disney was a true visionary whose desire for escape, iron determination and obsessive perfectionism transformed animation from a novelty to an art form, first with Mickey Mouse and then with his feature films–most notably Snow White, Fantasia, and Bambi. In his superb biography, Neal Gabler shows us how, over the course of two decades, Disney revolutionized the entertainment industry. In a way that was unprecedented and later widely imitated, he built a synergistic empire that combined film, television, theme parks, music, book publishing, and merchandise. Walt Disney is a revelation of both the work and the man–of both the remarkable accomplishment and the hidden life.

The Disney Revolt by Jake S. Friedman Pdf

An essential piece of Disney history has been largely unreported for eighty years. Soon after the birth of Mickey Mouse, one animator raised the Disney Studio far beyond Walt's expectations. That animator also led a union war that almost destroyed it. Art Babbitt animated for the Disney studio throughout the 1930s and through 1941, years in which he and Walt were jointly driven to elevate animation as an art form, up through Snow White, Pinocchio, and Fantasia. But as America prepared for World War II, labor unions spread across Hollywood. Disney fought the unions while Babbitt embraced them. Soon, angry Disney cartoon characters graced picket signs as hundreds of animation artists went out on strike. Adding fuel to the fire was Willie Bioff, one of Al Capone's wiseguys who was seizing control of Hollywood workers and vied for the animators' union. Using never-before-seen research from previously lost records, including conversation transcriptions from within the studio walls, author and historian Jake S. Friedman reveals the details behind the labor dispute that changed animation and Hollywood forever. The Disney Revolt is an American story of industry and of the underdog, the golden age of animated cartoons at the world's most famous studio.

The Public Arts by Gilbert Seldes Pdf

First published in 1956 and then again in 1994. Seldes can be viewed as a pioneer of popularising and giving value to popular culture in his various publications since 1924. The Public Arts first published in 1956 starts with a letter to Jimmy Durante and Edward R. Murrow in which Seldes suggests that news and entertainment are 'part of one field' and that 'the lively arts and the mass media are two aspects of the same phenomenon' which can be captured in the term 'the public arts'. Popular culture refers to the world of situation comedies, comic strips, MTV. radio and television talk shows, football games, standup comedians, mystery stories, popular romance novels, and so on. Elite culture refers to operas, ballets, classical music, masterworks of painting and sculpture, serious novels and plays and other art forms that require, generally speaking, relatively sophisticated sensibilities. Many critics now argue that it is now unauthenticated to argue that popular culture and elite culture are different.

Mr. Magoo Is My Role Model by Roy Mendelsohn Pdf

Mister Magoo has always appealed to me. His blindness showing his naivete, and inability to become oriented in a sometimes bizarre world, at the same time exposes the insanities surrounding all of us. It does so in a kind, gentle manner, clearly showing an absence of judgemental or hostile attitudes. He is simply lost and confused. My desire to achieve this capacity of calling attention to the injustices and unfairness all people face at one time or another, with humor and equanimity, is captured by this cartoon figure. It is in this sense that he has become my role model.

Moving Pictures by Darl Larsen Pdf

Take a deep dive into the history of cinematic animation in the United States with the book that Publishers Weekly says is "a lively chronicle of a perennially evolving medium." Animated films started with simple sequential drawings photographed one at a time—little bits of comedic fluff to make amateur title scenes or surreal escapist sequences. Today, animation is a worldwide industry valued at nearly $300 billion and still growing in scope and popularity. In Moving Pictures, Darl Larsen playfully lays out the history of American animation as it transitioned from vaudeville sub-feature to craftsman-like artistry to industrial diversion and, ultimately, to theatrical regulars on par with blockbusters. Larsen identifies and discusses the major figures, movements, and studios across the nearly 120 years of animation in the United States. Progressing chronologically, the book follows animation from stage performance through to its use as wartime propaganda, its seven-minute heyday and decamp to television, and finally the years of struggle as cartoons became feature films. Covering everything from the generations preceding Mickey Mouse to recent releases such as Super Mario Bros., Moving Pictures is an essential read for movie fans and a nostalgic revisiting of some of America’s favorite films.
