Subject guarantor:
Stanislav ULVER
Name of lecturer(s):
Stanislav ULVER
Learning outcomes of the course unit:

The course aim is to evoke an active interest in issues of animated film, introduce its history, important figures and the newest artistic trends.

Mode of study:

Lectures with screenings.

Prerequisites and co-requisites:

General knowledge of Czech and world animated film history.

Recommended optional programme components:

None

Course contents:

An expectation for completion of this course is regular attendance at lectures because there will be no chance to present material again and the inter-dependence of the topics are quite fixed. Both courses are completed with written and oral examinations by which the instructor will classify the students. For effectiveness in the course are texts of Minimum z dějin české animace („Minimum from the history of Czech Animation“) and God-willing, by the end of the semester there will be, as well, Minimum z dějin světové animace („Minimum from the History of International Animation“), with which the students can fill in the 'white areas', which may arise from rare absences at lectures.

11. Animovaný film 1960-1990

Since 1960 there have been intense spurts of change in animated film which do not only appear in traditional 'spheres of influence' in great studies but in a slew of other „non-traditional“ areas. John Halas in his book „Masters of Animation“ traces those changes in the following locations:

USA, Canada, Japan, Great Britain, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Italy, France, Czechoslovakia, Poland, The Soviet Union and The Netherlands. It seems that this geographic point of view is the most practical since in the given areas there is always an emphasis on that period which from the viewpoint of writers film the most fruitful. In some cases, persons (ex. Paul Driessen, George Dunning), which were concerned with migration between Europe and America the preference was on the „old country“.
