Animated Documentaries
To explore more animated documentaries, I decided to use the book, Animation: The Global History by M, Furniss. I was able to find more about more popular studios producing documentaries.
- Out of Inkwell Films Inc. released two science documentaries in 1923, which combined live-action and animation, named The Einstein Theory of Relativity and Evolution. Evolution was a prelude to the "Monkey Trial" in 1925, which addressed teaching Darwin's theory of Evolution in the classroom, breaking state law.
- Shelia Sofian produced a documentary tackling social issues, at first with animated shorts, such as Survivors (1997), which is a film about domestic violence, made using Conte crayon.
- Truth has Fallen is her latest work, released in 2013, tells the stories of three people who were wrongly convicted of murders. It is made using paint on glass and was able to complete the film, with a community of artists assisting her and she was able to complete the film through crowd-funding.
