As Máquinas de Maria

2008

Abstract

This research project aims at reflecting on animation and its adaptability to two communication models: television and cinema. The object of study of this reflection is the draft animation "As Máquinas de Maria" which currently exists as a television series and will hopefully evolve into another model, the cinema. This dissertation analyzes the differences and consequences of this transition, which are essential to ensure a successful screen adaptation of the object: a model of television series (five minutes) into a movie (ninety minutes).
