Watching the multiple different types of animation was very interesting. For example, the zoetrope in the subway tunnel was kind of shocking because I passed that tunnel a handful of times and I noticed the drawings but I didnβt notice it created an animation. But I also think itβs because my train never went fast enough for me to fully see the animation. Itβs a very cool way to decorate a subway tunnel but I feel like the black columns that separate the pictures are so thick and the gap for the pictures are so small that it makes it kind of hard to see, unless the train goes really fast. Because of that the beginning of the animation is not shown to its full potential when the train is still picking up speed.
An animation that I really enjoyed watching is Steamboat Willie. Not only is this animation iconic in the way it was revolutionary and the first animation with sound, it is also featured in many Disney movies and media. Itβs very cool how this film is in black and white but I can still imagine the colors that correspond to each object and how they can express so much without colors. Which is also done in βRejected,β except this has the color red. This animation was very random and got weird at some parts but entertaining as I didnβt know what was going to happen. I also like how the wrinkled paper added to the animation and made it seem more 3D, which Logarama did a great job with. I loved how the animation flowed so smoothly and it looked so 3D but also 2D at the same time.
