Studio Ghibli Color Designer Michiyo Yasuda, has passed away. :’(

Michiyo Yasuda, long time animator & color designer of Studio Ghibli passed away 

Japan’s Mainichi has reported on the death of long time color designer and the chief of the ink and paint division of Studio Ghibli Michiyo Yasuda, who passed away of an undisclosed illness on October 5 at the age of 77. Yasuda started working at Toei Dogo before she was 20 and joined Studio Ghibli co-founders Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki on the 1968 anime feature Horus, Prince of the Sun aka the Little Norse Prince.

Yasuda later worked on Miyazaki’s ‘78 TV anime Future Boy Conan, pre-Ghibli feature Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and Studio Ghibli’s features such as Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro,  Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle and Ponyo, as well as Isao Takahata works like Grave of the Fireflies. 

While Yasuda officially retried after Studio Ghibli released Ponyo in 2008, she came back in 2013 for Miyazaki's “final feature” The Wind Rises. Yasuda won an Animation Lifetime Achievement Award in 2011 from the Japan Movie Critics Awards.

Her career spanned over five decades, beginning as a tracer for animation before shifting into color work. She was present at the inception of Studio Ghibli, and continued to run the Color Department until her retirement following PONYO in 2008. Then returned to work for The Wind Rises.

Thank you for making this post, I’m glad to see this sad news getting attention. I had drafted a profile post on Yasuda a few months ago and never got around to finishing it and now its so sad that its taken her death for many people to discover one of the geniuses of Studio Ghibli who decided the colours for practically everything you see in every Ghibli film ever made.

psychic: *reads my mind*

me: B R E A K I N G  N E W S the mongols have invaded china. “w e ‘ v e  i n v a d e d  c h i n a” said the mongols. “p l e a s e  r e s p e c t  u s  o r  e l s e  w e  m i g h t  i n v a d e  y o u  a s  w e l l” *swords unsheathing* okay said japan. so the mongols came over, ready for war. and diedinatornado (actually a typhoon). but they tried again, and had a nice time fighting with the japanese but then diedinatornado (actually a typhoon). then the emperor overthrows the shogunate then the shogunate overthrows him back and moves to kyoto and makes a ~new shogunate~. and the emperor can still dress like an “”emperor””” if he wants. that’s fine.

Jennifer Lawrence is so conceited the way she called out that reporter for being on his phone. that was rude as fuck. Like you can’t stop to think for one second that people aren’t on their phone 24/7 because they’re bored or because they’re trying to be rude? Like especially with press honestly?? They’re probably getting updates all the time, have notes, questions, receiving live info, like what the fuck.

This is why i hate Jennifer Lawrence. She’s condescending as fuck and acts like everyone around her should worship her and every shit thing that comes out her mouth. 

“We’re at the golden globes if you put down your phone you’d know that”. No shit, Jennifer. Jfc. The reporter probably knows that better than you do yourself, because that’s his fucking job to get coverage and ask questions from high-profile, rude celebrities like yourself, who constantly have nasty shit to say and you can laugh it off and be as rude as you like to anyone and everyone, because you’re just “keeping it real”. 

As if you don’t already get enough attention so you’re gonna be an ass to a reporter on their phone. And the fact she went out of her way to humiliate him further by not dropping it the first time she called him out is appalling.

[padmesbox]

this is what’s even more upsetting, he was trying to translate a question so she could fucking understand and in return she humiliates him; because of that gross Variety headline, he might even get in trouble with his boss.

fuck Jennifer Lawrence.
