- The Evolution of Cartoons: Part One - The Pre-History of Animation.
In this ongoing series I aim to chart the entire history of one of humankind’s most spectacular artforms - animation. In this part, we’ll discover the early pioneers at the dawn of celluloid film - from Thomas Edison and the Lumieres’ first cameras; to the earliest experimentation of animation put to celluloid film by Georges Méliès and J. Stuart Blackton

Wow, I think one thing a lot of people forget is that, despite it all being live action, film is still animation, because it’s just fast moving pictures to give it life. Once again thank you for a small lecture on early days on animation and film making in general. Can’t wait for stop motion saga, and then finally get into the early days of traditional 2d animation.
Exactly! Too many fail to realise that cinema is simply an illusion. All films are nothing but animation of movements - thousands of images flashing before your eyes and “coming to life”.
Hope you enjoy the next installments! 🙏
2d animation is wonderful and deserves a lot of hope!
Until the last video, the first part of this series, I took for granted that live action photography and animation were two different things. However, after watching the first part, it makes sense that liv action is sort of animation, just not in the terms that you think of (cell, cut out, stop motion including puppets and claymation, CG models etc.).
It's fascinating how live-action filmmaking itself is technically animation. It's also an illusion caused by many pictures moving in rapid succession. The breakthroughs Edison, the Lumieres, and Blackton made to the industry. Thank you for your hard work and research making this series.
Thank _you_ for watching, and for another generous comment! 🙏
That’s awesome and if we had to wait another month that’s fair Dave, just take all the time you need and whenever Part(s) 3-present are ready we will be looking forward to watching it.
Thank you 😊. Working in the Garfield Evolution right now, so part 3 will be soon after that!
@@DaveLeeDownUnder I’m excited you’re finally doing Garfield since I longed to see you do a Cartoon Evolution of Garfield for two years especially on his 45th anniversary last year but I guess you pulled a "Foghorn Leghorn" (as you did him in 2022 instead of 2021 his 75th anniversary of his debut) and also you waited in honor of the Garfield movie to come out this month in the US and several month(s) in your country.
I love the Gerge Méliès! They are so imaginative! Such a shame that so many of them were lost.
I also love the movie Hugo Cabret, which featured a fictionalised version of Méliès (though it did get many things about his life right, e.g. that he owned a toy shop in a railway station). It's really an hommage to early film making.
I love hearing about old technology like this, it was really ingenious. Just neat to see how things had to be done before computers.
It's amazing how home projectors were made as far back as the very late 19th century. Can't wait for your video on the early days of Stop-Motion animation!
Wonder how many parts until we get to Gertie Dinosaur one of the earliest example of popular and animation's historically significant animation (which also inspired the pioneers of The Golden Age of Animation such as Walt Disney, Ub Iwerks, Rudoplh Ising, Friz Freling, Chuck Jones and more).
8:38 Fascinating. I feel like a lot of people think of Cab Calloway when they think of early rotoscoping so I’m glad that you are bringing attention to this. I really appreciate the amount of research you put into this series. Keep up the great work.
Thank you 🙏
When part 3 of Evolution of Cartoons come I want to see what’s the first fully stop motion animated movie 🍿
I love the making of animation and using motion picture cameras to bring animation like that!
I can’t wait for the next episode!!
Bravo. Noice video you put out and released, Je l’aime!
Can't wait for the 3rd part, oh yes.
This is great, loving this series!
Thanks so much!!
HELL YEAH part 2 is up!!!!!😊
Interesting ❤
Before Walt Disney created Oswald and Mickey and before Max Fleischer invented the rotoscope.
I would have to give Thomas Edison some praise and credit for some inspiration for chronophotography.
Animation is Art 🎨❤
Here's to the next 119 years!
Wow Amazing
Awesome video!
Thanks!
@@DaveLeeDownUnder you’re welcome, Dave!
So cool
Strobe Effect Warning to all people that have a Seizure at 5:45!
Let’s save the animation Let’s save this Looney Tunes
Animation deserves better!
Can you do a Evolution of the Universal Monsters to (1923-1956)
So clearly Lumiere from Beauty and the Beast was Disney's clever homage to the Lumiere brothers and their contribution to the craft, right? Right?
I’d like to say on some level, yes but “lumière” is also (somewhat coincidentally) the French word for “light” 😊
@@DaveLeeDownUnder Thank you for illuminating me on the subject.
❤❤❤❤
Next up: the dawn of stop-motion.
ah oopsi its georges méliès not miler
I never said “George Miler” lol
@@DaveLeeDownUnder my bad, i just read "miler" from the fifth chapter, i didn't see it was automatically generated
