Up (Up), Pete Docter (2009)
A pesar de las dudas iniciales, el estreno de Up supuso la confirmación del extraordinario momento creativo de los estudios Pixar a lo largo de la década de 2000. Encabezado por un inusual prólogo que incluía una de las secuencias más celebradas del cine reciente, el filme da paso luego a un frenético festín visual que supone el punto de encuentro entre la brillantez técnica de la animación norteamericana y la intensidad emocional del cine de Miyazaki, condensada en la alegoría de la casa flotante con sus globos de colores. El presente libro analiza en profundidad los diversos aspectos de una obra dirigida en apariencia al público infantil, pero con hermosas reflexiones sobre la pérdida y la aceptación de la muerte, en la que es sin duda una de las más relevantes obras maestras de la animación contemporánea.
Anime y videojuegos. Con A de Animación 9
En 1988, Katsuhiro Otomo trataba de imaginar cómo sería la vida en la distópica ciudad de Neotokio en el año 2019. El presente ya ha alcanzado al futuro, por lo que era una obligación ineludible dedicar una parte importante del número actual de Con A de animación al anime. La animación japonesa plantea en la actualidad un escenario en plena transformación, donde el cierre del emblemático Studio Ghibli no ha tardado en verse eclipsado por la ascensión meteórica de realizadores jóvenes como Mamoru Hosoda o Masaaki Yuasa, que han alcanzado repercusión mundial. Por otro lado, desde las primeras generaciones de consolas, la animación japonesa ha creado relaciones trasnmediáticas c...
El retorno del 2D. Con A de Animación 8
Casi como un título de épica galáctica emergió esta idea de hacer del “retorno del 2D” el tema del presente número de Con A de animación. La ironía es que, a pesar de que hace 22 años del estreno del primer largometraje enteramente realizado en 3D por ordenador, y del predominio de esta técnica en los que a cartelera de animación se refiere, la animación dibujada no solo no ha desaparecido sino que se ha fortalecido tanto en el ámbito comercial como en el artístico. Animación tradicional, animación vectorial, animación bajo cámara, pintura animada...El 2D es una cómoda categoría que nos permite hablar de todas estas variantes, independientemente de su origen, digital o...
Disney/Pixar Inside Out Cinestory Comic
From Pixar, the animation studio, and director Pete Docter, director of Up, Monsters, Inc., and writer of the first two Toy Story movies comes a motion picture that takes you on a journey into the most extraordinary location of all—inside the mind of an 11-year-old named Riley. Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it's no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions—Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust, and Sadness. The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley's mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley's main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how to best navigate a new city, home and school.

Children's Fantasy Literature
Fantasy has been an important and much-loved part of children's literature for hundreds of years, yet relatively little has been written about it. Children's Fantasy Literature traces the development of the tradition of the children's fantastic - fictions specifically written for children and fictions appropriated by them - from the sixteenth to the twenty-first century, examining the work of Lewis Carroll, L. Frank Baum, C. S. Lewis, Roald Dahl, J. K. Rowling and others from across the English-speaking world. The volume considers changing views on both the nature of the child and on the appropriateness of fantasy for the child reader, the role of children's fantasy literature in helping to develop the imagination, and its complex interactions with issues of class, politics and gender. The text analyses hundreds of works of fiction, placing each in its appropriate context within the tradition of fantasy literature.
Girl Zines
Stroll through any public park in Brooklyn on a weekday afternoon and you will see black women with white children at every turn. Many of these women are of Caribbean descent, and they have long been a crucial component of New York's economy, providing childcare for white middle- and upper-middleclass families. Raising Brooklyn offers an in-depth look at the daily lives of these childcare providers, examining the important roles they play in the families whose children they help to raise. Tamara Mose Brown spent three years immersed in these Brooklyn communities: in public parks, public libraries, and living as a fellow resident among their employers, and her intimate tour of the public spac...
If It's Purple, Someone's Gonna Die: The Power of Color in Visual Storytelling
If it's Purple, Someone's Gonna Die is a must-read book for all film students, film professionals, and others interested in filmmaking. This enlightening book guides filmmakers toward making the right color selections for their films, and helps movie buffs understand why they feel the way they do while watching movies that incorporate certain colors. Guided by her twenty-five years of research on the effects of color on behavior, Bellantoni has grouped more than 60 films under the spheres of influence of six major colors, each of which triggers very specific emotional states. For example, the author explains that films with a dominant red influence have themes and characters that are powerfu...
Fanzines
Fanzines have been one of the liveliest forms of self-expression for over 70 years. Their subject matter is as varied as the passions of their creators, ranging across music, comics, typography, animal rights, politics, alternative lifestyles, clip art, thrift shopping, beer drinking ... This book is a high-impact visual presentation of the most interesting fanzines ever produced. From the earliest examples, now incredibly rare, created by sci-fi fans in the 1930s, it takes us on a journey of subcultures through the decades. Superhero comics inspired a flush of zines in the 1950s and 60s. In the 1970s, the diy aesthetic of punk was forged in fanzines such as Sniffin' Glue and Search and Destroy, while the 80s saw a flourishing of political protest zines as well as fanzines devoted to the rave scene and street style. The riot grrrl movement of the 90s gave voice to a defiant new generation of feminists, while the arrival of the internet saw many fanzines make the transition to online.
