Overview

This course is an introduction to the study of animation through the technical,
aesthetic, and social analysis, which determines the development of artistic methods.
The course analyzes the particularities of this industry through the recognition of the
pioneering studies developed in the U.S.A. in the first half of the 20th century, the
evolutionary process throughout history placing emphasis on stylistic definitions, and
criteria of the preferences of public spectators.
