Download or read book Out of the Shadows written by Fiona Robinson and published by Abrams Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An innovative picture book biography about an unsung hero of early animation Lotte Reiniger (1899-1981) was a German film director and animator best known for The Adventures of Prince Achmed, which was released in 1926 and is the oldest surviving animated movie. (It came out a full 11 years before Disney's Snow White!) As a little kid, Reiniger loved reading fairytales and fell in love with puppetry. At school, she learned about paperschnitte, or papercuts, which helped her create her signature style of silhouettes. She grew up to make more than 40 films throughout her long career, most of which were fairytales that used her stop-film animation technique of hand-cut silhouettes. Reiniger is now seen as the foremost pioneer of silhouette animation and the inventor of an early form of the multiplane camera. With art inspired by Reiniger's cut-paper style and a text that uses a fairytale motif that mimics her movies, Out of the Shadows is a sweeping tribute to one of most important figures of animation, whose influence still resonates today.

Download or read book Grasping Shadows written by William Chapman Sharpe and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's in a shadow? Menace, seduction, or salvation? Immaterial but profound, shadows lurk everywhere in literature and the visual arts, signifying everything from the treachery of appearances to the unfathomable power of God. From Plato to Picasso, from Rembrandt to Welles and Warhol, from Lord of the Rings to the latest video game, shadows act as central players in the drama of Western culture. Yet because they work silently, artistic shadows often slip unnoticed past audiences and critics. Conceived as an accessible introduction to this elusive phenomenon, Grasping Shadows is the first book that offers a general theory of how all shadows function in texts and visual media. Arguing that shadow images take shape within a common cultural field where visual and verbal meanings overlap, William Sharpe ranges widely among classic and modern works, revealing the key motifs that link apparently disparate works such as those by Fra Angelico and James Joyce, Clementina Hawarden and Kara Walker, Charles Dickens and Kumi Yamashita. Showing how real-world shadows have shaped the meanings of shadow imagery, Grasping Shadows guides the reader through the techniques used by writers and artists to represent shadows from the Renaissance onward. The last chapter traces how shadows impact the art of the modern city, from Renoir and Zola to film noir and projection systems that capture the shadows of passers-by on streets around the globe. Extending his analysis to contemporary street art, popular songs, billboards, and shadow-theatre, Sharpe demonstrates a practical way to grasp the "dark side" that looms all around us.

He has always been comfortably-off - his father owned a chain of grocery stores, and his grandfather was a doctor. So he expects his earlier forebears to have been well-heeled... perhaps, even, nobility. When they turn out to be old-style working class, it's anathema to Hanna, Geoff's snobbish wife. It is the mid-80s, and both are staunch supporters of Tory Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. Hanna sees Geoff's embarrassing family tree as a threat to her status. But infuriatingly, as he traces his ancestors he even starts to sympathise with them. Worse, as Geoff works back to the 1700s, he discovers his female forebears working London's streets as prostitutes He fi nds little other information except records of births, marriages and deaths. Geoff doesn't even know the shocking truth of what happened to his own mother. But for the reader, the truth is revealed as the story goes "live" in each generation...and all have their own dramatic story. Secretly Hanna has had a string of lovers. When she walks out on their 23 year marriage and tells their son that Geoff is not his father, his cosy world is shattered. This is a story that combines life in the turbulent and divisive "Thatcher" 1980s with the realities behind England's "good old days" - highlighting some interesting parallels with modern times.

After a strange storm terrorizes a major city, Wolff must decide whether he will help Diamond solve the centuries old mystery and save millions of innocent lives before time runs out or flee the people he has grown to care about.
