Beyond the studio era : building on tradition. 330 $aThis collection of essays explores the link between comedy and animation in studio-era cartoons, from filmdom's earliest days through the twentieth century. Written by a who's who of animation authorities, Funny Pictures offers a stimulating range of views on why animation became associated with comedy so early and so indelibly, and illustrates how animation and humor came together at a pivotal stage in the development of the motion picture industry. To examine some of the central assumptions about comedy and cartoons and to explore the key factors that promoted their fusion, the book analyzes many of the key filmic texts from the studio years that exemplify animated comedy. Funny Pictures also looks ahead to show how this vital American entertainment tradition still thrives today in works ranging from The Simpsons to the output of Pixar. 606 $aAnimated films$zUnited States$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWit and humor in motion pictures 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAnimated films$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWit and humor in motion pictures. 676 $a791.43/340973 701 $aGoldmark$b Daniel$01047318 701 $aKeil$b Charlie$0778202 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463124703321 996 $aFunny pictures$92480347 997 $aUNINA
