Das kann ich aber auch!

In der Fotografie als reproduktiver Kunst und reproduktiver Technik existiert eine Vielzahl besonderer Umgangs- und Aneignungsformen im Kopieren originaler Bildideen. Das Spektrum reicht von der kreativen Nachstellung bis zum Plagiat. Fotografie ist das einzige Medium, das diese Bandbreite von Möglichkeiten in der Gegenüberstellung von Original und Kopie nutzen kann. Wolfgang Vollmer, Kölner Fotograf und Autor mehrerer Künstlerbücher, die sich kreativ mit Nachbildung und Fortführung von Ikonen der Fotografiegeschichte befassen, systematisiert die möglichen Umgangsformen der Fotografie mit "Vor-Bildern" aus ihrem medialen Bildgedächtnis.

Adapting “8-bit” motion style to 3D computer animation for Wreck-it Ralph

Tangled (2011) demonstrated that Walt Disney Animation has successfully extended the traditional Disney animation aesthetic to the 3D medium. The very next film produced by the studio however, Wreck-it Ralph (2012), required the animators (trained in the traditional Disney style) to develop a limited style of animation inspired by the 8-bit motion of 1980s video games. This paper examines the 8-bit style motion in Wreck-it Ralph to understand if and how the principles of animation were adapted for the film.
