Les maitres venus du froid : une histoire de l'animation russe Vous avez, si vous fréquentez ce blog depuis quelques temps déjà, peut être vue cette animation de Youri Norstein, le hérisson qui était un premier aperçu de la richesse de l’animation russe. Celle ci reste très majoritairement ignorée en occident, animations européennes, mais surtout américaines ou japonaises ayant dominé l’une après l’autre sur nos écrans… et puis il faut bien avouer qu’à l’époque, ce qui pouvait venir de l’autre côté du rideau de fer et surtout de l’union soviétique n’était pas… en odeur de sainteté. A tort dans le cas de l’animation russe qui tant du point de vue des histoires comme des techniques était d’une qualité et d’une poésie rares.

Top 50 movie special effects shots CRITERIA FOR THIS LIST:This is not a list of 'iconic' SFX shots, such as the opening shot in Star Wars or the final shot in Back To The Future, etc. There are many fantastic SFX shots in cinema history that are artistically 'awesome' without qualifying here.

In the U.S., many animated shorts, especially at Warner Brothers, used the rich backlog of classical history as soundtrack, providing a musical education to generations of children. Many of the cartoons' scores shifted between varied styles of music: Vyacheslav Artyomov's score for "Boy is a Boy" (1986) moved from jazzy blues to romantic piano to more adventurous 20th century styles.
