Download or read book Ray vs the Toons written by Tyrone and Jere Watson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhibition resides inside of us, somewhere between our desires and fears. We all have prejudices and habits that we subconsciously act out but are unaware of the reason why. These habits become second nature, and before you realize it you will be operating inside a safe zone. No one has to lock you in this place if they can convince you to never turn the knob. But who determines our safe zones? Why is there a boundary on our desires? Ray vs. the Toons is a journey outside the gates, not a physical gate but a mental gate, which each of us build as we journey through life. We are inhibited by things that we unconsciously construct, not from our own experiences but from the experiences of others. As fears and prejudices of others are projected upon us, we begin constructing this mental gate. The gate protects us from what’s on the other side and gives us comfort. But there are times when our desires overtake our fears; that is the moment when we reach for the knob and turn it. There will come a time when you have to tear down the walls of prejudice and rebuild them with walls of confidence.

Download or read book America Toons In written by David Perlmutter and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-03-13 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animation has been part of television since the start of the medium but it has rarely received unbiased recognition from media scholars. More often, it has been ridiculed for supposedly poor technical quality, accused of trafficking in violence aimed at children, and neglected for indulging in vulgar behavior. These accusations are often made categorically, out of prejudice or ignorance, with little attempt to understand the importance of each program on its own terms. This book takes a serious look at the whole genre of television animation, from the early themes and practices through the evolution of the art to the present day. Examining the productions of individual studios and producers, the author establishes a means of understanding their work in new ways, at the same time discussing the ways in which the genre has often been unfairly marginalized by critics, and how, especially in recent years, producers have both challenged and embraced this "marginality" as a vital part of their work. By taking seriously something often thought to be frivolous, the book provides a framework for understanding the persistent presence of television animation in the American media--and how surprisingly influential it has been.

Download or read book Enviro Toons written by Deidre M. Pike and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes an ecrocritical approach to analytical readings of animated feature films, short subjects and television shows. Beginning with the "simply subversive" environmental messages in the Felix the Cat cartoons of the 1920s, the author examines "green" themes in such popular animated film efforts as Bambi (1942), The Simpsons Movie (2007), Wall-E (2008) and Happy Feet (2008), as well as James Cameron's live action/animation blockbuster Avatar (2009). The discussion extends beyond American films to include the works of Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (2002). Also evaluated for their pro-ecological content are the television cartoon series South Park and Futurama. The appendix provides a list of film and television titles honored with the Environmental Media Award for Animation.
