Studio Ghibli is a Japanese animation film studio formed in 1985 by animators and filmmakers Hayao Miyazaki and Takahata Isao, as well as producer Suzuki Toshio. His art is characterized by reoccurring themes of conflict between nature and man. The narrative of Princess Mononoke revolves around a struggle between the forest gods and a mining enterprise. The natural world has the potential to be violent and vicious. It is a clash between the environment and mankind.

Klaus, released in 2019, demonstrates the blurring border between 2D animation that appears to be 3D. Sergio Pablos (Disney alumnus) created the picture in his Animation studios. Rather than typical animation, the company aimed to emphasize on organic and volumetric lighting and texture. Giving the picture a one-of-a-kind appearance while retaining a “hand-crafted feel.” I believe it falls more into the animation category because it does not have a typical figure that looks like a sticker but rather a naturalistic character.

Japanese animation also known as “anime” become popular in America in the 80s known as Japanese animation, popularly known as “anime,” became famous in America during its “golden age” with a great burst of genres and interest in the 1980s. Pokemon is one of the world’s “most influential anime” and the “number one” anime for people of all ages. Pokemon began as a video game franchise and evolved into an anime television series with over 24 seasons. The show debuted in the United States in 1999, and it features legendary animals who live with their human companions, known as “trainers,” and go on adventures together, growing stronger via battle. Pokemon may be found on a variety of streaming platforms, including YouTube, Hulu, and Netflix. It connects with American fans, in my opinion, since it was created as competitive gaming. The anime is enormous in Japan, with a larger viewership than in the United States due to the availability of in-person Pokemon-themed activities for its citizens.

The UPA studio was noted for its use of color, abstract patterns, stylized drawing, and limited movement. The film “Rooty Tooty Toot” is animated by Art Babbit, Pat Matthews, Bob McDonald, and Grim Natwick. I noticed that when “nelly” the lady in blue, told her story in Color, abstract patterns, stylized sketching, and restricted movement were all hallmarks of the UPA studio. Art Babbit, Pat Matthews, Bob McDonald, and Grim Natwick created the animated feature “Rooty Tooty Toot.” When “nelly,” the lady in blue, delivered her narrative in court, the entire story was colored blue. She also walked and expressed herself in a more sassy/elegant manner. When the “Frankie” narrative was told, she was wearing a white dress surrounded by flowers, which may frequently be interpreted as innocence, which is what her lawyer is attempting to show. She wore a red dress to court, and once she won the case, everything went red, including herself. She was envious when she spotted her lawyer flirting with “Nancy” and shot him with the gun used at the original crime scene. After this happened, the entire courtroom becomes blue, indicating that Nellie was correct from the start. It’s effective because they utilized different colors to distinguish the characters.

Czechoslovakia during the cold war was ruled by the communist party and belonged to the During the Cold War, Czechoslovakia was dominated by the communist party and belonged to the Eastern Block, a collection of socialist republics in Central and Eastern Europe, East Asia, and Southeast Asia influenced by the Soviet Union and its philosophy. The country has a strong tradition of puppet theater, with the figures expressing their emotions via movement. Jiří Trnka was a national hero because of the fame he brought to Czechoslovakia with his puppet animation. The communist government saw the film as subversive at the time because it showed how the hand (Czech government) kept going into the character’s (Czech citizen’s) house and doing things their way regardless of whether it was an invasion of privacy whether he approved it or not. Even when the character (Czech citizen) smacked the hand (Czech government), it did not stop until the character created the items the hand desired. Overall, indicating how residents felt about the country since the government did not appreciate their opinions.

During the war, animation became an essential tool in the United States, and it was utilized for propaganda reasons, such as educating the general public about the war or portraying the enemy in a “xenophobic” manner. Hilter is the adversary shown in Bury the Axis; his drawing approach was dirtier in the face, and he moved in a marching manner. The footage shows four geese following his lead in the same marching pattern, but in the next scene, only one goose follows him. Making the audience believe that if they disobeyed him or disagreed with him, they would be killed. The animation of Momotar no Umiwashi is a complete black and white reconstruction of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The characters from America were designed to be more immature and dumb. Japanese characters, on the other hand, were more responsible and worked together. Both films used these animations to implicitly convey certain stereotypes about the enemy in order for civilians to have the same perception of them.

After viewing the video of Snow White meets the seven dwarfs, you will see that they are all created and animated in a similar style, but they are distinguished by their personalities. I chose two dwarfs who were both sleepy and grumpy. To begin, Sleepy, when first introduced, yawns and stretches while appearing drowsy. Furthermore, his character has bigger eye bags as a result of his “lack of sleep,” making him appear physically exhausted in comparison to the other dwarfs. On the other hand, before Snow White even shouted his name, he crossed his arms with firm fists and took a deep breath, while crossing his with an angry expression. His brows are more clenched, and he has the largest nose compared to all the dwarfs.
