Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿, Miyazaki Hayao?), born 1941-01-05 in Tokyo, Japan, is a director of animated films and a co-founder of the animation studio and production company Studio Ghibli.
Miyazaki is the creator of many popular animated feature films, as well as manga. Although largely unknown in the West outside of animation communities until Miramax released his film Princess Mononoke in 1999, his films have enjoyed both commercial and critical success in Japan and East Asia. Miyazaki's Spirited Away is the highest-grossing film of all time in Japan; Princess Mononoke held the same title for a short period until the release of Titanic later in the same year.
Miyazaki's films are distinguished by recurring themes such as humanity's relationship to nature and technology, and the difficulty of maintaining a pacifist ethic. The protagonists of his films are often strong, independent girls or young women; the villains, when present, are often morally ambiguous characters and have redeeming qualities.
Miyazaki's films have generally been financially successful, and this success has invited comparisons with American animator Walt Disney. However, Miyazaki does not see himself as a person building an animation empire, but as an animator fortunate enough to have been able to make films with complete creative control. In 2006, Time magazine voted Miyazaki as one of the most influential Asians in the past 60 years.[1]
Toshio Suzuki, at a Studio Ghibli press conference on 2007-01-17, indicated that the title of the next Miyazaki film would be announced in March 2007.[2]
Miyazaki, the second of four brothers, was born in the town of Akebono-cho, part of Tokyo's Bunkyō-ku. During World War II, Miyazaki's father Katsuji was director of Miyazaki Airplane, owned by his brother (Hayao Miyazaki's uncle), which made rudders for the Zero fighter plane. During this time, Miyazaki drew airplanes and other aspects of flight, and developed a lifelong fascination with aviation which became a recurring theme in his artistic works.[3]
Miyazaki's mother was a voracious reader and an intelligent woman, who often questioned socially accepted norms. Miyazaki later said that he inherited his questioning and skeptical mind from her.
Miyazaki moved frequently throughout his childhood, in part because his mother was undergoing treatment for spinal tuberculosis from 1947 until 1955.[3] Miyazaki's film My Neighbor Totoro features a family whose mother is similarly afflicted.
Miyazaki attended Toyotama High School. In his third year there, he saw the film Hakujaden, described as "the first-ever Japanese feature length color anime",[4] and began to take an interest in animation. In order to become an animator, he had to learn to draw the human figure, because his work until that time had been limited to drawing airplanes and battleships.[4]
After high school, Miyazaki attended Gakushuin University, graduating in 1963 with degrees in political science and economics. He was a member of the "children's literature research club," said to be "the closest thing to a comics club in those days".[4]
In April 1963, Miyazaki got a job at Toei Animation, working as an in-between artist on the anime Watchdog Bow Wow (Wanwan Chushingura). He was a leader in a labor dispute soon after his arrival, and he became chief secretary of Toei's labor union in 1964.[3]
In October 1965, he married fellow animator Akemi Ota, who later left work to raise their two sons, Gorō and Keisuke. Goro is now an animator and filmmaker, as has directed Tales from Earthsea at Studio Ghibli. Keisuke is a wood artist who has created pieces for the Ghibli Museum and who made the wood engraving shown in the Studio Ghibli film Whisper of the Heart. |

You Wish |
| Title: You Wish
Subject: Spirited Away
Music by: LaLaine
In Association with: Princess Kayla Productions
Completed: July 2003
Summary: This video shows the connection between Haku and Chihiro. It shows how Chihiro puts her trust in Haku and in return learns to trust and depend on herself.
If you have ever worked very hard on something and had it stolen by someone who only claims it is his/hers, then you know how it feels to be plagiarized. Its frustrating and disappointing, especially when the person doesnt believe he/she did anything wrong. But, we know he/she did. Its plagiarism, and that is a crime. FIGHT PLAGIARISM! |
