It will look beyond the films’ visual aesthetics to assess DreamWorks’ influence on the narrative and tonal qualities which have come to define contemporary animated features, including their use of comedy, genre, music, stars, and intertextuality. It makes original interventions in the fields of film and animation studies by discussing each of these techniques in a uniquely animated context, with case studies from \u003ci\u003eShrek\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAntz\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eKung Fu Panda\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMadagascar\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eShark Tale\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBee Movie\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTrolls \u003c\/i\u003eand many others. It also looks at the unusual online afterlife of these films, and the ways in which they have been reappropriated and remixed by subversive online communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-07-01\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030368531\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-36851-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 233\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45440715882636,"sku":"9783030368531","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030368531.jpg?v=1776019993","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783030368531","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
