I'll introduce the Japanese movie maestro, Miyazaki Hayao.
He graduated from Gakushuin University in1963. After that, he worked as an animator, though he actually wanted to be a comics artist. However, when he watched "The Snow Queen", he was impressed and decided to be a grest animator. His first derecting work was "未来少年コナン".I've never heard it.
In 1984, he created his first animation film, "風の谷のナウシカ”. I think most of people have watched this movie.
Since then, he made many animation films, such as "もののけ姫", "魔女の宅急便" and "千と千尋の神隠し". They are really interesting, but my favorite Ghibli animation is "となりのトトロ"!! As you know, this movie is fascinating, especially the last scene.
By the way, do you know there is a rule in the title of his movie? It is that there are a letter "の" in every title, like "天空の城ラピュタ" and "崖の上のポニョ".
Please tell me your favorite Ghibli animation film.


Are there English titles for these movies? Tonari no totaro is My neighbor Totoro in English. It is one of Miyazaki's early movies, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteIn your blog you introduced him and gave his filmography. But you didn't explain why you chose him as the topic of your blog. Please explain.
Ms. MacGregor
This is Koichi.
DeleteYou're right. There are English titles for the movies. For instance, "風の谷のナウシカ" is "Nausica of the Valley of the Wind", and "もののけ姫" is "Princess Mononoke" in English.
I chose him because I've watched his films these days and known that he is one of the famous old boys of Gakushuin University. Then I decided to write this blog about Miyazaki Hayao. And also I think most of us know his name, but don't know his carrer.
