2013 Top 5 Animated Movies-Take You A Whole New Experience

Here is the best animated movies 2013! Disney/Pixar always make a good showing in this genre and have the audience either laughing, crying or a little of both.

Sometimes there's romance and other times it's about defiance and showing independence and getting through the hard times. Mostly the graphics are amazing, the characters are awesome and audiences are able to get with the story line fairly quickly.

Meet the cast, the characters and discover the reason kids want to go and see these movies at the cinema! Check out the trailers and decide if these movies are suitable for your kids and you.

Some of the most anticipated animated movies are sequels such as Despicable Me and The Smurfs 2. There's even a Prequel, Monsters University and there are some completely new animated movies in 2013 too. Here is my list of the top 10 animated movies 2013 has to choose from.

Escape From Planet Earth

Escape From Planet Earth is set to be one of the best animated movies 2013. It's a hilarious way of looking at what would happen if an alien came to Earth. He'd be captured and taken to Area 51 and would have to try his best to escape. And that's what happens in Escape From Planet Earth. Except, this alien can't escape and his geeky side kick has to come up with a plan to rescue him.

Escape From Planet Earth is now available on DVD.

Add in lots of other funny aliens being help captive in Area 51 and you have a lot of blue people trying to get home.

Expect to hear the voices of Jessica Alba, Sarah Jessica Parker, Brendan Fraser, Jane Lynch, and James Gandolfini in cinema's from February 14th 2013.

Oz The Great and Powerful

It's full of adventure and is set in the same world as the original movie, The Wizard of Oz. However, Oz The Great and Powerful is a prequel to the classic. This is the tale of how the Wizard got to Oz and became The Wizard of Oz.

Oz The Great and Powerful is now available on DVD.

Like the original movie, it's part animated and it's part normal screen action. However, once the Illusionist goes through the storm that takes him to Oz, he finds himself in a magical land where he no longer knows the rules. He doesn't know who is good and who is evil. He will have to figure it out quickly before the opposition realize the full extent of his powers.

Oz The Great and Powerful is directed by Sam Raimi (directed The Amazing SpiderMan) and has a star studded cast. Be prepared to see Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, James Franco, Michelle Williams and Zach Braff.

The animations are yet again amazing in the world of Oz and there are lots of new creatures to meet.

The only negative I can find is although the movie looks amazing, I really struggle to see how it can become a classic like The Wizard of Oz. The Wizard fails to have the same appeal of Judy Garland, as Dorothy. She had that youthful, wide-eyed innocence. Not surprising when the roles are completely different and audiences would find it a little weird if a man in his early thirties put on his red dancing shoes and tangoed down the yellow brick road...

Will this be the best animated movie 2013? I don't think so. Will it be great to go back and re-experience a childhood classic? Absolutely!

Get ready to watch Oz The Great and Powerful in cinema's from March 8th 2013.

The Croods 

 The Croods is due to be released on March 22nd 2013 and is a family movie with a touch of humor.

Now available to order on DVD and watch at home. Comes with one of the most popular characters from the movie Belt! However, this is likely to be a

limited time offer so you should order your copy of The Croods DVD soon before this offer expires.

You'll recognize voices such as Nicolas Cage and Ryan Reynolds. Catherine Keener and Emma Stone also supply their voices to two of the main

characters.

Chris Sanders and Kirk De Micco are co-directors on this cave man project.

The Croods is about an over-protective parent trying to keep his family from leaving the safety of the cave. It's set in pre-historic times and the

action quickly goes beyond the cave walls. Yes, you guessed it, one of the children decides to ignore their dad and decides to explore outside the

cave. When it's discovered the daughter is missing the family embark on an adventure to find their lost family member and find a way to survive in

the wilderness.

Expect some really cool backdrops and animations. If you and your kids liked the Ice Age movies then expect something similar from The Croods.

The Croods Merchandise
Check out the latest Croods merchandise including Grug and other dinosaur toys, posters, games, books and dvd's.

Epic 

Epic (Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack)

The creators of Ice Age and Rio bring to you a new animated movie in 2013 called Epic!

If you love nature and the secret world below your feet then you'll love Epic. It's about a young girl that gets shrunk down to size and discovers there's a war going on in the garden. If she doesn't fix things and help The Leaf Men then the human world will also fall.

Expect to hear the voices of Beyonce, Colin Farrell, Amanda Seyfried and Steven Tyler

Buy Now

Monsters University 

How did Mike and Sully become Scarers? Well they went to University of course!

After the success of Monsters Inc. we've all been waiting patiently to see Mike, Sully and Boo again. Well the good news is Mike and Sully will be returning to the big screen in the summer from June 21st 2013. The bad news is that Boo won't be with them as Monsters University is actually a prequel to Monsters Inc.

Expect more humor and pranks in Monsters University along with the voices of John Goodman, Billy Crystal, Steve Buscemi, Kelsey Grammar and Jennifer Tilly.

I am hoping that Monsters University is one of the best animation movies 2013! The trailer looks like they are on the right track.

The 5 greatest animated music videos

The idea of a music video is to gain extra promotion; give it extra air time to a chosen demographic to increase the sales and generally increase awareness of an artist.
Throughout the 'MTV Generation', there were numerous animated videos being created but as technology became more accessible and the platform for showing media stretched from across numerous TV channels dedicated to music, then to internet, there has been an increased number of animated videos being created.
The list below has been compiled to show a broad range of animated videos to accompany music. Not all of them are strictly 'animation' (in the cartoon sense); some are motion graphics, 3D, lo-fi, hand-drawn... And they are in no particular order!

01. The Killers - Miss Atomic Bom

 

 

• Released: 2012
• Directed by: Warren Fu

Director Warren Fu had previously worked with the band on their video for single 'Runaways,' and returned to take charge of this, their second single. Effortlessly fusing the two mediums of animation and stunning live action shots, this animated music video brings a heartbreaking love story to life.
Josh Goldstein worked as the producer, with Jeff Pantaleo as executive producer and Shawn Kim as director of photography. Titmouse Studio was responsible for the exceptional animation.

02. Tame Impala - Feels Like We Only Go Backwards

 

 

• Released: 2012
• Directed by: Becky Sloan, Joseph Pelling

You could say that the inspiration for this animated music video lies somewhere inbetween Peter Gabriel's 'Sledgehammer' and The White Stripes' 'Seven Nation Army', and the amount of work that has clearly gone into this makes it a true work of art.
Directors Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling have a creative chemistry that always produces the best results, whether it's applied to set design, window displays, Christmas cards or TV idents. 'Feels Like We Only Go Backwards' is an absolute delight.

03. The Kleenrz - Sandman

 

 

• Released: 2012
• Directed by: Jason and Aya Brown

Combining children's television-style cartoon characters with live action, this music video follows the Sandman working with his two helper Umbrella Girls and reveals what goes on inside the big bag he carries. The action cleverly synchronizes with lyrics by The Kleenrz, a collaboration by LA rappers Self Jupiter and Kenny.
The beauty of this approach is that it gets you to listen carefully to the lyrics. This is something which can be difficult to achieve with music videos as often the action distracts from the song itself.

04.Los Campesinos! - 'We Throw Parties, You Throw Knives'/'You, Me, Dancing!'

 

• Released: 2007
• Produced by: Monkmus

American animator Monkmus has created an array of music videos for the likes of Badly Drawn Boy, Mogwai, and Death Cab for Cutie - this double effort for Los Campesinos! stood out the most for me as I love the contrasts and similarities between war and party. The naive style of the illustration is beautiful and reminds me of the tail end of the infamous Dumbo scene with the racing elephants.

05.Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing

 

 

• Released: 2013
• Directed by: Jessica Cope and Simon Cartright

Clearly inspired by the work of Russian animator Yuriy Norshteyn (best known for the incredible Tale of Tales) the intense atmosphere of this imaginative and thought provoking short brings the haunting story of the song to evocative life. The stark and simplistic animation style - based largely on the gentle movements of hand-cut paper models - fits the mood perfectly.

2013 Top 5 Photo Slideshow Softwares

If you want to tell a story by your pohotos,you can share that story using photo slideshows that you personally design and create. Photo slideshow software helps you easily design, share and publish custom slideshows. This software specializes in creating slides filled entirely with photos and videos. It is ideal if you are creating slideshows to display images and videos from your latest family vacation, weddings, memorial tributes and more. These applications provide photo-editing capabilities, several output options and audio tools that are much more powerful than those available within many work-related slideshow applications.

The following is designed to help you find the right Photo Slideshow Software. You can read the top 5 Photo Slideshow Software of 2013:


1.PhotoStage Slideshow Pro

While NCH Software's rigid support plans for PhotoStage Slideshow leave much to be desired, this photo slideshow software is still outstanding. The application provides prolific design features and a sophisticated yet intuitive user interface that is quite easy to navigate – so much that we imagine you won't feel the need for a support plan anyway. If you want photo slideshow software that is simple but still provides professional results, we highly recommend PhotoStage Slideshow.

2.PhotoStory on DVD MX Deluxe 11

PhotoStory on DVD MX Deluxe is a great choice for photo slideshow software because it combines a rich feature set and publishing options with intuitive ease of use. This software will appeal to a wide range of people, including inexperienced beginners and advanced, computer-savvy folks. With the assorted tools and features that are built into this multi-faceted software, you can create fun, exciting and polished slideshows that really capture the thrill of those special events in your life.

3.ProShow Gold 5 

With tons of feature options and high quality slideshow output, ProShow Gold proves to be a top contender in the field of photo slideshow software. It would be hard to exhaust all the features available on this photo slideshow software, and you'll likely discover there are more features available on this application than you might ever need. There is somewhat of a learning curve, but once you've stepped over that hurdle, you'll be able to make wonderful photo slideshows with ProShow Gold.

4.PicturesToExe Deluxe 7.5 

PicturesToExe Deluxe is a feature-filled application with many tools that you won't find in most slideshow applications. We are impressed with the excellent input and output options, along with the protection tools and large number of transition and music options. We would have liked to see more photo-editing tools and telephone support, but overall, PicturesToExe Deluxe will help you create high quality slideshows that will make you proud.

5.PhotoStory on DVD MX 11

The standard version of PhotoStory on DVD MX definitely doesn't deliver the bang for your buck that the deluxe version does. However, the impressive help and support options you receive with this product, coupled with its simple usability, make this photo slideshow software accessible and very useful if you want to create attractive photo slideshows.
