They use animation for that? This month, Animation
World Magazine delves into laboratories, courtrooms, architecture firms,
military installations, space and microspace to discover uses for animation
where you probably never expected to find it. Silicon Graphics does a lot
more than create life-like dinosaurs. We will profile this leader and discuss
the many "other" sides of SGI. Wilson Lazaretti will tell us
about his experiences teaching animation deep in the Amazon rainforest
where electricity does not yet reach. Plus, Mark Langer will also enlighten
us on what Disney has to do with atomic energy, General Dynamics and the
USS Nautilus. We are also going to take a look at fan phenomena
this month. Dominic Schreiber is going to reveal what elements our favorite
shows have in common.
We will also feature an interview with Max Howard on the eve of the release
of Quest for Camelot, Warner Bros. Feature Animation's first fully-animated
picture. In addition, the UCLA Film and Television Archive will be profiled.
In the way of event reviews and previews we have a gang of them this month.
Rugrats Live, Nickelodeon's traveling stage show coming to a town
near you, is reviewed by Ron MacFarlane. We will also hear reports on the
Brussels Cartoon and Animated Film Festival in Belgium, MILIA International
Content Market for Interactive Media in Cannes, France, and The Second
World Summit on Television for Children being held in London. NATPE's AniFX,
an event to take place in Los Angeles this May, will be previewed as well.
Irene Kotlarz will review Manga Entertainment's new limited theatrical
release, a collection of animated shorts entitled, General Chaos.
And on the software side, Max Sims will review the tutorial video tape,
