Zagreb school of animated films is a style of animation originating from Zagreb and Croatia, most notably Zagreb Film. It is represented by authors like Nikola Kostelac, Vatroslav Mimica, Dušan Vukotić and Vladimir Kristl. The term was coined by Georges Sadoul.
The "golden age" of Zagreb School spanned between 1957 and 1980, in three waves, each dominated by a different group of animators.
Tomislav Simovic (1931-2014), Zagreb born musician with 300+ film scores in his biography. He was also a well-known jazz composer in his Tomislav Simovic Orchestra. Director Vukotic picked him for the Visitors from the Galaxy and he delivered amazing, completely electronic work which was revolutionary in 1980s Yugoslavia. As the synthesizers were expensive and considered a second rate replacement for acoustic instruments, not many musicians dared to experiment with it. Visitors from the Galaxy now stands as the first ever feature film electronic score in Yugoslavia and Tomislav Simovic is remembered as one of the most prominent and highly awarded among Croatian composers, but so far none of his film pieces was released. He is also the author of the theme for animated series Professor Balthazar, probably the most famous piece of cartoon music in ex Yugoslavia. He was one of the collaborators of the New York music magazine EAR for which he wrote essays for the column Composer and Moving Image.
