Godzilla

Season 1 · Episode 42

mercredi 27 mars 2024Duration 06:51

I mostly looked into this because of the new movie but ended up having a lot of fun. If anyone knows the best way to watch all these old movies let me know.

Season 1 · Episode 31

mercredi 3 janvier 2024Duration 06:30

Like I mentioned I took a brake for a few reasons. I got sick, I was busy with other projects and I also wasn't sure if I should make anything related to the studios that where getting striked. I feeling better and now that the strikes are over I want to release more episodes again. I started a discord server so please join and we can talk about animation history. I would love to know what you all want to learn more about.

Georges Méliès the Father of Special Effects

Season 1 · Episode 30

mercredi 13 septembre 2023Duration 08:54

I remembered learning about him in school but I didn't know about how we lost so many of his films. It is really such a shame. Doing research for this podcast has made me realized how important media preservation is. On another note I am going to take a brake from posting episodes for a while. I am currently working on multiple projects and so I needed to drop something. Don't worry episodes will return.http://www.frenchfilms.org/biography/georges-melies.htmlhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm0617588/bio/?ref_=nm_ov_bio_smhttps://www.victorian-cinema.net/melieshttps://www.britannica.com/biography/Georges-Melieshttps://www.bfi.org.uk/features/georges-melies-autobiography

Toei Animation Union

Season 1 · Episode 25

mercredi 9 août 2023Duration 06:29

This was super interesting to look into. I had no idea that they had a union until now. I do hope that they gain some power and they improve the working conditions. We need artist to be happy and healthy so that they can make great art for us to enjoy.

It does seem that the VFX team behind the marvel movies has voted to unionize. I defiantly would have mentioned that in this episode but I had already finished it before I heard. I wish them the best of luck.
