Today, we\u2019re watching a video essay on the history of the animation output of the Soviet Union.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Animation created under Soviet rule is a little bit like porn: you know it when you see it. Even if you aren\u2019t a history buff or an animation nerd, I do believe (let me adjust my tinfoil hat) that you can kind of <em>tell\u00a0<\/em>when you\u2019re watching Soviet animation. M. Night Shyamalan was wrong. The sixth sense is actually the unfounded ability to tell when something was animated behind the Iron Curtain.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so\u00a0<em>maybe\u00a0<\/em>all the overt agitprop (a fun and definitely not scary portmanteau of \u201cagitation\u201d and \u201cpropaganda\u201d) gives early Soviet animation away. And <em>maybe<\/em> Soyuzmultfilm\u2019s slightly-off but unmissable parroting of \u201cthe Disney style\u201d is a tell. And, hey, <em>maybe\u00a0<\/em>the bleak, rebellious uptake of Czech puppetry as a means of rebelling against an oppressive occupation is also a clue. Suffice to say: Soviet animation is distinct and endlessly fascinating. Like all art, it\u2019s political. And because it\u2019s Soviet Art, it\u2019s doubly so.<\/p>\n<p>As the video essay below teases out, it\u2019s fascinating to see the medium transform and flourish in response to political change. The essay is by no means a complete history. But if you\u2019re a fan of animation techniques, production, and Soviet heavy hitters, it\u2019s a marvelous place to start.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Watch_%E2%80%9CHistory_of_Soviet_Animation%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>Watch \u201cHistory of Soviet Animation\u201d:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"History of Soviet Animation\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UALreieU39Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_made_this\"><\/span>Who made this?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This video on the history of Soviet animation is by\u00a0<strong>Mountains of <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a><\/strong>, a channel dedicated to exploring and analyzing, well, media!
