Emile Cohl - Fantasmagorie 1908 [French]
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=aEAObel8yIE Emile Cohl created the
first fully animated film, Fantasmagorie (1908), and in the process
lifted cartoons out of the realm of trick films and started them on
the path toward animated features. The two- minute film
Fantasmagorie (alternatively, in English: A Fantasy, Black and
White, or Metamorphosis) is made up on approximately 700
double-exposed drawings, using what is known as a "chalk-line
effect", a technique probably borrowed from early animator James
Stuart Blackton.

Winsor McCay - 1911 - Little Nemo
Slide 14
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=kcSp2ej2S00&feature=related
New York Herald comic-strip animator and sketch artist Winsor McCay
(1869-1934) produced a string of comic strips from 1904- 1911, his
three best being Dreams of the Rarebit Fiend, Little Sammy Sneeze,
and Little Nemo in Slumberland (from October 15, 1905 to July 23,
1911). Although McCay wasn't the first to create a cartoon
animation, he nonetheless helped to define the new industry. He was
the first to establish the technical method of animating graphics.
His first animation attempt used the popular characters from his
comic strip (and became part of his own vaudeville act): Little
Nemo in Slumberland (1911) (with 4,000 hand-drawn frames), followed
by How a Mosquito Operates (1912) (with 6,000 frames).
Gertie the Dinosaur 1914 Walter McCay first prominent,
successful and realistic cartoon character or star was a
brontosaurus named Gertie in Gertie the Dinosaur (1914) (with
10,000 drawings, backgrounds included), again presented as part of
his act. In fact, McCay created the "interactive" illusion of
walking into the animation by first disappearing behind the screen,
reappearing on-screen!, stepping on Gertie's mouth, and then
climbing onto Gertie's back for a ride - an astonishing feat! It
was the earliest example of combined 'live action' and animation,
and the first "interactive" animated cartoon. Some consider it the
first successful, fully animated cartoon - it premiered in February
1914 at the Palace Theatre in Chicago.

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=vIC0Sb6pLvI Wladyslaw Starewicz'
childhood passion for entomology led his career: he began producing
short documentaries in Moscow around 1909-1910, beginning with a
documentary about insects in Lithuania. In his spare time, he
experimented with stop-action films using beetles, which he
articulated by wiring the legs to the thorax with sealing wax!
This, of course, led to his big breakthrough, released by the Van
Kanjonkov Studio of Moscow: "The Battle of the Stag Beetles", the
first puppet-animated film.

Slide 21
The Adventures of Prince Achmed The little-known but
pioneering, oldest-surviving feature- length animated film that can
be verified (with silhouette animation techniques and color
tinting) was released by German film-maker and avante-garde artist
Lotte Reiniger, The Adventures of Prince Achmed (aka Die Abenteuer
des Prinzen Achmed) (1926, Germ.), based on the stories from the
Arabian Nights. Reiniger's achievement is often brushed aside, due
to the fact that the animations were silhouetted, used paper
cut-outs, and they were done in Germany. And the rarely-seen prints
that exist have lost much of their original quality. However, the
film was very innovative -- it used multi- plane camera techniques
and experimented with wax and sand on the film stock.

Slide 31
Czechoslovak animator extraordinaire, Jan has been making
intensely bizarre films since the mid-'60s. Most of his work is a
mix between 3-D stop-motion animation, puppets and live-action, but
it can involve any mix of the above. His stories are eerie,
delightful, and surreal. His actors include real people, machines,
socks, clay figures, antique dolls, pencil sharpeners, and
skeletons or stuffed corpses of animals, among other things. His
sets are usually decaying Czech buildings or landscapes, decorated
with waste of the industrial age: rotting furniture, rusty nails,
sawdust, oily screws, and the like.
