Ashley Kimbell LP Outline

Journal Entry – Week 11 (long paper outline)

Soul by Pixar, directed by Pete Docter (2020), is the film I chose from my long paper. This film was chosen because I admire the animation and the story. Soul tackled issues of life and death that no other Pixar film has ever explored.

Outline:

Synopsis of the story/type of animation influences/inspirations that led to the creation of the film (films and people)

People who worked on the film

The duration 

animation process 

The musical score

The movie’s message

Was the film a success? Did it win any awards?

Did it inspire other films?

Conclusion 

CHRISTIAN MAYELLUS Week 12

Journal Entry - Week 12

The reason why Disney and other big studio closed their 2d animation around the late 19 and 2000s is because Disney struggle with charms and some fresh animation and also the studio realized it no longer had the budget nor the time it had while creating its animated feature films. I sincerely believe it was a gamble, to be honest, but look at them now they are a multi-billion dollar company that kept on putting out unforgettable animations after another. 2d animations that are striving today are  Looney Tunes (Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd) Classic Disney (Snow White, The Jungle Book, The Little Mermaid) TV shows (The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, Rick and Morty).

CHRISTIAN MAYELLUS Week 11

Journal Entry – Week 11 (long paper outline)

The Film/SeriesI’m going to pick for my long paper is The Simpsons since The animation studio for “The Simpsons” is in Burbank. Still, two studios in Korea touch up much of the work to make it consistent with the models of the characters. For the first three seasons, the animation company was Klasky Csupo, and other studios subcontracted by FOX: AKOM, Anivision, Rough Draft Studios, U.S. Animation, Inc., and Toonzone Entertainment. I choose the series because The Simpsons is good tv and film which I will enjoy writing a long paper about it.
