Animation: A World History

Take part in the turmoil of the 1950s through 90s as American animation began to lose its momentum and the advent of television created a global interest in the art form. Volume II of Giannalberto Bendazzi¿s Animation: A World History delves into the decades following the Golden Age, an uncertain time when television series were overshadowing feature films, art was heavily influenced by the Cold War, and new technologies began to emerge that threatened the traditional methods of animation. Exploring animators from every continent, and including a huge portion of previously unpublished material, this book is essential reading for all animation students, teachers, and professionals.
