This book provides the most comprehensive history and analysis of
Australian animation published to date. Spanning from the 1910s to the
present day, it explores a wide-range both of independent animation, and
of large-scale commercial productions. Presented within a uniquely
international context, it details the frequent links between Australian
animation and overseas productions. New perspectives and original
information are offered on a variety of international subjects such as:
Felix the Cat, the Australian Hanna-Barbera studios, and the Australian
Walt Disney studios. Drawing on both extensive archival research and
original interviews this book illuminates, for the first time, the
breadth and richness of Australia's animation history.
