Animation in Spain

This book provides a comprehensive account of Spanish animation history, from its early days through to the arrival of CGI. It examines the two main centers of production, Barcelona and Madrid, as well as evolving animation hubs in the Basque Country and Galicia. This book also pays tribute to the women who were significant to the animation industry and had been invisible for many years, highlighting more recent attempts to achieve equality in the Spanish animation industry thanks to help from the government and women's associations looking to balance the inequality in this domain. This book will be of great interest to academics, students, and professionals working and researching in the field of animation. Maria Pagès Rovira specializes in Spanish animation, holding a PhD in Animation from Universitat de Vic-UCC. She teaches 2D Animation in Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, and she is a member of the Research Group Dicode in the Centre de la Imatge i la Tecnologia Multimèdia.
