It promotes interdisciplinary research that bridges animation studies with other fields such as sociology, history, ethics, and visual arts, aiming to enrich the understanding of animation's impact. - Technological and Methodological Innovations:
The journal emphasizes the exploration of new technologies and methodologies in animation production and theory, including stop-motion, CGI, and immersive environments. - Historical Contextualization:

Trending and Emerging
- Animation and Immersive Technologies:
A growing interest in how animation interacts with immersive environments, such as virtual and augmented reality, is evident, reflecting the industry's technological advancements. - Animated Non-Fiction and Documentary Styles:
The rise of animated non-fiction is a significant trend, indicating a broader acceptance of animation as a serious medium for conveying factual narratives and exploring real-world issues. - Gender and Representation:
There is an increasing focus on gender dynamics within animation, including feminist critiques and the representation of diverse identities, which suggests a critical engagement with social justice themes. - Cultural Trauma and Memory in Animation:
Emerging studies examine how animation deals with themes of trauma and memory, particularly in relation to cultural histories, indicating a deeper exploration of psychological and sociopolitical narratives. - Ethical and Philosophical Dimensions:
Recent works are beginning to explore the ethical implications of animation practices, particularly in contexts such as stop-motion animation and the ethics of care, signaling a philosophical turn in animation studies.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Animation Techniques:
There is a noticeable decline in papers focusing exclusively on traditional animation techniques, as the field moves increasingly towards digital and experimental forms of animation. - Mainstream Commercial Animation:
Research centered on mainstream animation from major studios, such as Disney or Pixar, has waned, suggesting a shift towards more niche, independent, or international animation narratives. - Historical Studies of Early Animation:
While historical analysis remains important, specific studies focused solely on early animation (pre-1950) are becoming less prominent, possibly overshadowed by contemporary and culturally relevant themes. - Purely Aesthetic Critiques:
There seems to be a reduction in works that focus solely on the aesthetic aspects of animation without engaging with broader cultural or social contexts, indicating a shift towards more critical, contextual analysis. - Single-Case Studies:
The journal appears to be moving away from studies that analyze single animated works in isolation, favoring broader thematic or comparative analyses that consider multiple works or trends.
