This Open Access book charts the history of these digital moving images and the software tools that make them. Unpredictable Visual Effects uncovers an institutional and industrial history that saw media industries conducting more private R&D as Cold War federal funding began to wane in the late 1980s. In this context studios and media software companies took concepts used for studying and managing unpredictable systems like markets, weather, and fluids and turned them into tools for animation. Unpredictable Visual Effects theorizes how these animations are part of a paradigm of control evident across society, while at the same time exploring what they can teach us about the relationship between making and knowing. 410 0$aPalgrave Animation,$x2523-8094 606 $aAnimated films 606 $aMotion picture industry 606 $aTelevision broadcasting 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aAnimation 606 $aFilm and Television Industry 606 $aFilm Theory 615 0$aAnimated films. 615 0$aMotion picture industry. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 14$aAnimation. 615 24$aFilm and Television Industry. 615 24$aFilm Theory. 676 $a777.709 686 $aPER004000$2bisacsh 700 $aGowanlock$b Jordan$0994605 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910482867803321 996 $aAnimating Unpredictable Effects$92277684 997 $aUNINA
