About the TalkIn this talk, Professor Du will share on her latest research about the animated film-making activities of the North China Film Company (a branch of the Manchukuo Film Association (株式會社滿洲映畫協會) also known as Manying (滿映) between 1937–45), which was located in wartime Peking.Focusing on a Chinese cartoonist and animator named Liang Jin (?–1972), as well as a few Japanese animators at the North China Film Company, she will show that although Manying’s animated filmmaking followed a philosophy of "territorialization" and localization, it  still made a fantasy world distanced from the wartime realities of China and Japan. This enabled the animations to transcend wartime political controls, persist through a tumultuous regime change, and assume multiple afterlives  as "ghosts" animating Chinese socialist cinema, despite institutional efforts to erase them from the history of Chinese animation and live-action filmmaking.Registration: https://lbcube.hkust.edu.hk/ce/event/9298Notes:This is a recognized event in the "Self-directed Experience" component of CORE1905: Behavioral Foundations of University Education: Habits, Mindsets, and Wellness.
