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 606 $aAnimated films$2bicssc 606 $aFilm, TV & radio$2bicssc 606 $aFilm theory & criticism$2bicssc 610 $aAnimation 610 $aFilm/TV Industry 610 $aFilm Theory 610 $aFilm and Television Industry 610 $aVisual Effects 610 $aLive-Action Cinema 610 $aEconomics 610 $aMechanical Control 610 $aSocio-Political 610 $aEngineering 610 $aOpen Access 610 $aAnimated films 610 $aPerforming arts 610 $aFilm history, theory & criticism 615 7$aAnimated films 615 7$aFilm, TV & radio 615 7$aFilm theory & criticism 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
