Alison de Vere (Weschke), British animator

Description: Alison de Vere (Weschke), was an independent British animator best known for her capabilities as a designer. She was born in Pakistan and began her artistic training at the Royal Academy schools. She later entered the field of animation at the lowest level and worked her way up. After working for the British animation studio Halas and Batchelor for five years during the early '50s she was promoted to designer. Soon afterward, she began free-lancing for TV commercials, credits and special effects. In 1968, she was hired on as background supervisor for George Dunning's Yellow Submarine. To assist with the design--for which the film is best known--de Vere collaborated with Heinz Edelman, a German designer. Between 1970 and 1980 she did commercials for Wyatt Cattaneo Productions. At their studios she also made two internationally recognized films, Cafe Bar (1975) and Mr Pascal (1979). Both films won awards at the Annecy Film Festival. Through the '80s de Vere continued making films, in 1984 working on an adaptation of Silas Marner, and in 1987, filming The Black Dog.
