Animation Pictss

When most people think of cartoons, most likely to think about ten minutes short sketches are used to seeing on your Saturday morning shows children as Bugs Bunny, Yogi Bear, Mighty Mouse, and many others, and so many of us grew up with. But the truth is, cartoons were just as big and popular on the big screen, full-length film as long.

Probably the person most responsible for the big screen animation success was Walt Disney who started in 1920 by creating such memorable characters as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. One of his first full feature film was "Steamboat Willie", which starred Mickey Mouse. Disney went on to produce such memorable films as "Cinderella," "Snow White", "Peter Pan" and half animated half real person's masterpiece "Mary Poppins", which was unique for the time.


But Disney Studios not only manufacturing company to a fully animated feature film, even though they are probably the greatest, even to this day. Other companies that joined in what was an incredibly large market for children's animated films. Many of these companies and producers took animation to new heights. Cartoons have already obtained the data, which we are accustomed to seeing the first 50 years of its existence. New forms of animation began to take off with advances in computer technology.

The most popular of these new forms is what is known as Pixar's 3D technology. Pixar, the company is in fact a subsidiary of Disney. This process uses the Pixar animation software to create cartoons. The actual steps are very complicated, since the first drawing the shape, each scene, the actual movement of people across the stage and then transport it all over the software itself. All this information is then stored in large data sets. These files can then be performed in many different ways. Human movement itself has never been so easy to imitate, which makes these cartoons so realistic. Some of the most popular of them over the years, "Toy Story," "Shrek" and "Monsters, Inc.", just to name a few.

Another type of animation that has become very popular in the late is the painstaking stop motion animation. This is done by a specific number, rather than to set up and snapped the picture of them. The data are then moved, sometimes only a fraction of an inch at a time work until the next action scene. These are probably the hardest to do animation and requires the patience of a saint. Fortunately, Nick Park has the kind of patience. He created what is arguably the most popular stop-motion animated film ever made, Wallace and Gromit series, the most famous is probably "The Curse-Rabbit."

Animated films are now big box office, and even for Oscar winners. Recently, Shrek was the biggest box office smash for the animated film ever.
