THE BRIEF HISTORY OF ANIMATION

We can see the earliest animation paintings of animals in Paleolithic Age in caves. The paintings consisted
of images of a jumping goat. Many centuries later, inventions like the Magic Lantern and the Flipbook
brought life to motion, but there was no sound. Walt Disney’s Steamboat Willie was the first short film
which contained synchronized sound. Later stop motion emerged in movies with live action. But, it was
less popular. The best example was “Wallace and Gromit” whose main characters were a man and his dog.
The famous film company “Pixar” made the first animation completely on a computer with lots of short
films. Later it joined another film company called “Disney” in order to create computer animated feature
length films. Toy Story 3, the first ever animated movie, reached $1 billion in Box Office sales. Pixar is now
the most successful computer based animation company in the world.
