Welcome
to the world of Studio Ghibli
Studio Ghibli is often
referred to as the Disney of the East. Japanese animated films
of only the highest quality have emerged from Studio Ghibli
since its establishment in 1985, with several of these films
having won awards. Hayao Miyazaki,
one of the greatest directors and animators in Japanese
cinema, has produced many of the Studio Ghibli films, after
co-founding the company with his senior colleague Isao Takahata
and Toshio Suzuki who was then an animation magazine editor
at Tokuma Shoten. Miyazaki and Takahata have long been celebrated
in Japan as visionary directors and icons in the field of
animation. |
