    El castillo encantado de Walt Disney
    (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022-03-14) Ferrer Rosillo, Irene
    [EN] 2D animation is a fascinating discipline that shows incredible worlds of pure creativeness, and which involves a wide range of professional fields. Architecture plays a prominent role in Animation, facilitating the immersive narrative environment through all kinds of fantastic buildings. Despite being a subject of deep relevance, most editorial publications on animation tend to collect the art of productions, without properly delving into the rich background that usually exists behind those amazing architectural designs. This article seeks to approach a specific model of architecture created by Walt Disney: the enchanted castle. This theme is a constant in many of his most classic productions, among which Snow White (David Hand, 1938), Cinderella (Clyde Geronimi, 1950) and Sleeping Beauty (Clyde Geronimi, 1959) stand out. Due to its exquisite quality, both technically and artistically, the latter will be the focus of this analysis.

    Conociendo a Silly Walks Studio
    (Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2015-05-18) Andrés López, Rafa; Valls, Ajo P.
    [EN] Silly Walks Studio is a newly established team formed by four young artists specializing in visual development and 2D animation. This group was created in 2013, after its members finished their studies, thanks to a Startup UPV, a program to support young entrepeneurs, of which these four Graduates in Fine Arts have been the first beneficiaries at Universitat Politècnica de València. Due to their multidisciplinary nature, in Silly Walks’ portfolio can be found the production of Motion Graphics, spots, advertising art for video games, and even contributions to films. To date they have combined the development of their own projects with commissioned work of some importance, as the animation sequence for the film Pixel Theory (2013), or the graphical and audio-visual image to the 5th Edition of the Master Degree in Animation UPV (2013-15). Moreover, in the past year they have worked as visual designers and as animators for the gaming industry, joining forces with Brave Zebra studio. In the following lines we will know firsthand the members of this group and will be reviewed their short but intense career in today’s audiovisual and animation world.
