As someone growing up watching anime, it’s always interesting to know about the history and how it became what it is today. The picture processing faster than our eye making the illusion that its moving forms the animation itself. As someone that has ADHD, I guess that is the reason animation allows me to sit still and be able to watch it in one sitting rather then reading through a whole book and million different words. Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Steamboat Willie: I’ve actually watched this animation before. This was one of the first clips that Walt Disney released and it has a lot of exaggeration through the clip, this can show that people creating animation at that time was just going through the invention of the anime itself and it has a lot of childlike elements to the clip of the traditional Mickey Mouse. Astro Boy: its really impressive knowing that animation is so common now a days and leads to the modern people forgetting about them used to being hand drawn picture by picture and taking millions of pieces to form a short clip.Miyazaki Hayao also has really great animation movie and he still Insist on drawing the original manuscript by hand which is crazy considering his age and he announced retirement but still came back for another piece debut. Op Hop – Hop Op: watching this actually kind of gives me anxiety but the vision was really impressive and the sound effect along was impressive. The changing shapes and the sudden blackness in between was kind of interesting. I started to think if there was a certain pattern but maybe not? im not sure. #MeToon: this piece reminds me of a traditional animation. A classic voice over with different scenes of drawings reflecting to the voice and there were cut outs of the person interacting with the drawings which was pretty classic. It’s like a podcast in someone’s mind thats very creative. A thinking process when someone talks to you about their life. I can kind of relate because my mind always flows all over the place and I was socked with my friend telling me some people doesn’t have images when they think.
