Suspension of Disbelief Bonus Reading
5 years ago
In a couple of weeks I'll be doing a journal on Suspension of Disbelief in general fiction. I'll be pulling indirectly from a "Wonderful World of Disney" episode (available on Disney+ last time I checked) called the "The Plausible Impossible." That episode talks about an out of print book called The Art of Animation (1957 edition, there's newer ones that I'm not sure have the same content).
While it's talking mostly about cartoon physics, the principles discussed go right along with what I'm discussing and go into a lot more detail than I can in my short journal posts. Maybe someday I'll get over my absolute terror of public appearances and do a panel at a convention or something.
At any rate, anyone that wants to be ahead of the class can watch that or if they're luckier with their Google-fu than I am, find a print copy of the book online for less than $300.
