Learning about the
history of short animation film
TJ Bae
“Anifest” and “the
animation show of shows”
A slide about brief history about short animation film
should be made.
A few interview videos of short animation directors.
Objectives:
Students learn about the beauty of short stories.
Students learn about different types genre in animation.
Students learn about the power of personal story. (How they are very different from long ones)
Example lists to watch:
Patrick Osborne : feast, Pearl , pet
Ainslie Henderson: Stems
Iris Alexandre: Crin-crin
Kristian Pedersen: Boygen
Dina Velikovskaya: About a Mother
Seoro Oh: Afternoon Class
Etc: shorts from Disney and pixar
Possible ideas for activity:
This can be the first one to start the semester or the last
one. If the class starts with this, a teacher can help students to define what
makes animation. If it were the last one then, students can be divided into
each groups and analyze each animation with a critical eye of what they have
been learn so far.
It could be very discussion base.
