It’s important that we move with the times and appreciate how technology advances and enables evolution, but also we understand how we got there! Reply Macie says: September 9, 2014 at 5:33 am I am doing a animation webliography for a class in high school and we needed an online publication. I loved the set up of your website and the idea of it being peer edited, so i used it in my presentation.

Thanks Reply Elton Molder says: May 19, 2017 at 6:31 am good article, Reply jeff thomson says: July 10, 2017 at 6:36 am This a really great work these articles can be so useful for animated video makers Reply Martin Shellabarger says: September 14, 2017 at 11:49 am SAS is an oasis of scholarship in the desert of animation-related film studies. I recently saw a notice that the SAS Journal was going to be folded. “Tell me it aint true!” Now I do not see any notice of this. Please clarify: is our beloved Journal going to continue to do its immensely useful and necessary work? Asap I will be sending my membership subscription fee. This site is worth supporting. Reply Martin A Shellabarger says: June 8, 2018 at 9:19 pm If the Journal folds and only the academic publishers have control over the only animation journal, it will be a huge defeat for students of animation. The unfair procedures of the academic publishers MUST be stopped (forcing authors to give up copyright, questionable loyalties, stunning over-charging for access, locking poor parts of the world out of access due to high fees, etc. etc.). The Journal had provided this for the field, and now I am afraid it has been lost. Reply Amy Ratelle says: June 17, 2018 at 12:09 am While Animation Journal (edited by Maureen Furniss) has recently ceased publication, we don’t have any plans to fold at this time. We’re committed to our Open Access model, and have plans to revamp things a bit in terms of the online format in the coming months. Reply Jim Le Fevre says: June 21, 2018 at 1:47 pm I for one am super interested to know of the future of the Animation Journal. I really look forward to news! Reply Micheal says: April 9, 2019 at 7:02 pm Excellent blog to much study material i request to you add rendering study material because it’s growing now days and student like me looking for technology in animation industry Reply Leave a Reply Leave a Reply Cancel reply Your email address will not be published.
