“Animation Practice, Process & Production is a journal presenting, analysing and advancing how animation is created and shown. From Pixar to Parn, Aardman to X-Men, Motion Capture to Mobile Phone, GUI to Gallery, all forms of animation will be revealed and assessed. Illustrated contributions are invited from practitioners and scholars of animation. Innovative models of critical presentation and analysis are especially encouraged. All topics engaged with the practice, process and production of animation, from a range of perspectives, will be considered.” — from the website

The July 2012 issue has an interesting article entitled, “Animating the archive: A role for creative practice in the animation archive” which delves into animation archives and how they can best serve their constituents. Archives are intended for preservation, but also serve as research hubs. This article describes two animation archives and how they deal with their varying functions. Check it out!
