Superare le diversità culturali con la magia dell’animazione | Cinzia Angelini | TEDxTrento


to be in the same way it will be hollywood

incredible think you have been

influenced by cartoons that is

from the animated films you’ve seen

as a child you have ever dreamed of being

an invincible super hero, a fairy

charming or an exuberant wizard or

perhaps to fly to the island that does not

we try to imagine and if we could

use animation not just for

allow children to dive uncleanly

incredible fantastic but also for

transport them to different real worlds in

their worlds that can sometimes be instilled

fear or even fears, fear, fear

different than fear change

of the unknown and if with magic

of the animation we could defeat

these fears bring cultures closer together

and overcome the barriers and the

cultural diversity

you ‘re probably thinking it’s one

crazy visionary but we return children

just for a moment

close your eyes just for pleasure

a second

think of your first cartoon

gone back with the memory which was

that movie how excited you are and how much

involved

I think that right now you have

a very vivid idea of ​​an image and

I think it’s a memory connected such

a period of your first ten years

it is believed that the first ten

years are fundamental for the

formation of an individual what

live but above all what you try

the emotions during this period

draw I would have brought in all the

life and then I told myself but if yes

it could go beyond history

Princess kissing a rare

coyote that follows a bird or fairy

of desires

if you could talk with the animation

also of different stories

so we can influence children

before ten years before they are

fully formed as individuals and

we can bring them messages of

courage to change the strong values

moral and cultural

once upon a time there was a Syrian child

he dreamed of being a dancer in his

country but forced by the war was

forced to realize his dream

elsewhere there was once a child

Afghan in love with music and against

every opinion has succeeded not only

become a musician but also to become

the director of the first orchestra

Afghan composed of women only

once upon a time there was a child from Malawi

that thanks to his inventions he manages to

bring electricity for the first time

time in his lost village

in short, important history of stories

little big heroes that must be

told must be brought to

our children

and why not with magic

of animation and leave me here

tell a story as many as mine

of you in the audience, surely you are

grown up with war stories

my grandmother was a child in the first

world war and my mom then

survived the second of all

stories that my mother told me

what most marked me the most

I was left inside and the one to me

he described how he felt as a child

under the bombings right here a

thirty thousand went without force blocked

from the fear that he could not escape

and then my mother more than a story

managed to make me understand how a child

you can feel in the middle of a

conflict managed to convey that

his indelible memory

an anguish, an anguish that perhaps

we can try to understand with looking

photos like this

we know it well, unfortunately, that this

it’s not the first and it will not even be

the last and if you do not do something if not

we commit the story continues to

repeat but in fact when I was 20

years and I was at my first course of

animation war broke out

Balkans and at that moment all

stories told mida my double mom

that had remained in my heart and in the

my mind was not that far anymore and

at that moment I decided and I promised myself

that when I would have felt ready I would have

used the art that I love and love

the animation to act and try to do

a difference and after years spent in

world of international animation

Dear bosses ready to write direct

my first film I knew exactly about

What I wanted to talk was one

once a child in the trento under the

bombings was called mila

I turned to everyone with enthusiasm

studies and great studies but soon leaders

that these studies were not interested in

talk about socially engaged stories

these stories were not suitable for them

business and nobody wanted to invest in

a cartoon that talked about

war was a difficult pill to

digest but as you may know so many

force can be born from rejection

and so I decided not to accept that no

and then I address my friends and

colleagues and their response was

incredible desire to put in

highlight the tragedy of child victims

of war but not just talking in

general and strong themes with a

sweet language and more accessible

children united us and today the thousand team

counts more than 350 artists that

voluntarily cooperate from 35 countries

some of them unfortunately in the middle of

conflicts and this is an example of the

our work

[Music]

[Music]

as it seemed too strong for i

children

I think no

I think that unfortunately we underestimate i

children’s children have foundation and

curious they have an open mind they are

free from prejudices and so manage to

process things differently from

we

this wonderful form of art

the animation was unfortunately limited

boxed in cinematographic genre and

it’s time to open this box e

allow directors to artists to

story teller to bring big

public also another kind of

animation animation has no limits and

on the constantly growing market

but how big and this market

from the animation we see a moment

animation in particular of the

feature films these are data based on

feature films released in the United States e

then with a diffusion one

worldwide distribution here you see in the

last 30 years practically the development

of the gray animation market there

they are what represent the budget

and the return to the income of the great

end big studies ie with a lot of budget

of commercial sheen those you go

usually to see at the cinema with i

your children your grandchildren and red

bottom very reverse as you see i

independent films that have budgets

very limited compared to those

unfortunately we can also commercial

then see the enormous difference that

this is in the animation for the minute

are the retail expenses for each film of

animation

on average a commercial film reaches

one million and a half minute instead

three independent films unfortunately have

only a few tens of thousands of

dollars available per minute

count the business

animation has reached the year

last almost $ 7 billion is in

constant growth and I speak only of

feature films we do not even talk about

television and then another aspect a lot

important for our business that the

distribution because if you do not have

salt when movies come out during the

first weekend no one will go to see the

our films obviously commercial films

they only have me usually have to

2,500 3,000 medium salts available

with peaks of almost 5 thousand depending on

of the studies clearly as you see

under the red I have to tell the truth that

I had to increase the red because

are the new dates for the movies

independent are a handful of rooms

for sure last year played a

see a beautiful animated film

independent and the choices were los

angeles new york a hall one day

unfortunately, this data I think

understand the potential of a

animated feature film every year

hundreds of artists of directors succeed

to produce their short films e

I am very often dealing with strong themes

important culturally different but

unfortunately they are destined only to the

festival for which with an audience of

niche reach a few people some

they can also do in feature films

pro then as you have seen they do not have

distribution

and so what can we do to change

the things

we just have to make a revolution la

revolution of doing

trust you act risk explores

but this revolution can not start

only by us insiders

from the artists of the animators where

leave from all of us

I hope that in the future the big studies

of animation decide to invest

even in movies that are socially

different with committed themes such as best

half are the animation to bring the

our children

different stories that enrich them that

they can eliminate these barriers

cultural approaches all a little bit

more and maybe hope together in one

better world

if you are a producer and see one

fantastic story that you are not enthusiastic about

think immediately about what you will do to

box office

follow your heart in a given

possibility if you are a distributor

offer these movies in theaters

trust your audience

Rome was not created in a day

all things need time not

just to be done but also for

be created and above all it is the thing

more important

if you are parents like me

choose animation film with the

same care with which you choose food

good for your children and if you do not have it

found available requires themes

please get in touch

I assure you that strength is with you

you who decide you must make yourself heard

from distributors by producers from

great studies and all together you can

change things

you can participate in creating a world

better as we said walt disney

the only way to be able to change them

things and stop talking and acting

thank you

[Applause]
