history of animation

The history of film animation begins with the earliest days of silent film and continues through the present day. The first animated cartoon was created by frenchman mile Reynaud, inventor of the praxinoscope, an animation system using loops of 12 pictures. On october 28, 1892 at Muse Grvin in Paris, France he exhibited animations consisting of loops of about 500 frames, using his thatre optique system - similar in principle to a modern film projector. The first animated cartoon on standard picture film was Fantasmagorie by the French director mile Courtet (also called mile Cohl), projected for the first time on August 17, 1908 at 'Thtre du Gymnase', in Paris. mile later Courtet went to Fort Lee, New Jersey near New York City in 1912, where he worked for French studio clair and spread its technique in the US. The first puppet animated film was The Beautiful Lukanida (1910) by the Polish Director Wladyslaw Starewicz (Ladislas Starevich). The first animated feature-length film was El Apstol (1917) from Argentine Quirino Cristiani, shown in Argentina. The second animated feature film was The Adventures of Prince Achmed (1926) from German Lotte Reiniger and French/Hungarian Berthold Bartosch.
