Composers and animators – the creation of interpretative and collaborative vocabularies

The article builds on research undertaken by Hanna into communications between animators and sound designers initiated through the UK 'Sonimation' project (Hanna, 2001), a commissioned programme of six films produced by collaborating animators and composers, and presented in a paper ‘Sound and Animation: separated by a common language?' at the 'Narrative/Non-Narrative/Anti-Narrative’ conference, University of West England Bristol (2006). The article uses examples taken from Hanna’s own collaborative creative work to inform the identification of significant historical and international practice, and to present a series of exemplars as an original resource for both theorists and practitioners.
