Goro Miyazaki – Japanese artist, eldest son of popular animator director
In 2004, for his work, Miyazaki received a specialized award from the Ministry of Education. Despite the fact that for a long time, not wanting to be associated with his father, he refused to participate in the creation of animated films, he soon agreed to the proposal of producer Toshio Suzuki. Toshio invited Goro to work on the script for the film based on the works of Ursula Le Guin. During the work, Miyazaki agreed to lead the project, becoming also the director of the film. In addition to developing the storyline and script, he began to deal with storyboarding and sketches. Despite the difficult relationship with his father, he used some of his ideas. In the summer of 2006, a film was released in Japan. "Tales of the Earthsea" , within the first week became the leader of the rental.
Soon, as part of the out-of-competition program, the film was shown at the Venice Film Festival. And the following year, the film was nominated for the award of the Japanese Film Academy in the category “Best Animated Film”.
Despite the success at the box office and the incredible interest caused by this adaptation of Le Guin’s novels, Miyazaki’s picture received mixed reviews – some critics stated that the characters are poorly drawn, illogical, and the plot is long. In Japan, the film became the winner at once in two nominations of the Japanese equivalent of "Golden Raspberry" - the award "Bunshun Raspberry".
