THE 115th EDITION OF THE fd ZONE Part VI THE fd ZONE is happy to bring you an extensive selection of animation films made by the Cartoon Film Unit of Films Division. These will be screened over two sessions, on 25th October and 8th November, 2014. The films reflect the preoccupation of the state organisation and its use of the very specific medium of the cartoon film to reinforce the desired messages. The films also reflect the development of different styles of animation in the first few decades of Indian cinema history, with names that appear with regularity in the FD catalogue: Govind Saraiya, Pramod Pati, Dilip Jamdar, VG Samant, Ram Mohan and Bhim Sen. The attempt was to adapt the western technique of animation and Indianise it in terms of the characters appearance and movement and apply them to the very specific context of the growing nation. The Cartoon Film Unit was later named the Animation Unit and continued to make nation-building and public service spots, quickies as they were called, many of which became a part of our collective consciousness through their dissemination on Doordarshan and now on the internet. The film will be presented in chronological order over two sessions, two weeks apart.
