    Beginnings: 1932-1963
    To tell Okamoto’s story from the beginning, we have to make a short detour
    to talk about Tadahito Mochinaga, the legendary father of Japanese stop-motion
    animated filmmaking. Mochinaga had started out working under Mitsuyo Seo,
    and had left Japan for Manchuria just before the end of the war, where he found
    himself in demand for his animation knowhow. (To learn more about his fruitful
    China period, I refer you to an outstanding article on Mochinaga by Kosei Ono on AWN.)Read More »
