Cut out animation

Cut out animation is a way of making stop-animation.  You can use Props,backrounds and characters using things likr card, paper, or photographs. One of the worlds first animation that featured cut out was made in Argentina by Quirno Crisini. Born on July 2 1986 he was born in Italy but raised in Argentina. His Animation work shows great example of silhouette styled animation which had very complex designs most silhouette animations had rivets or pins to make the joints of body parts move. Nowadays cutout animation is all produced using computers because it is much easier with the availability to scan images.

One Prime Animator who uses cut out and silloette animation is Lotte Reiniger born on 2nd June 1899 she was a Film Director, a pioneer for silhouette animation who has made over 40 films over her career. She has made many Silhouette films an example of her work is Puss in boots which was a 1936 13 minute long feature. But Reinger was responsible for making Hansel and gretal animation and Cinderella in 1922. I think this type of animation is very good and highly creative for its time.

Silhouette animation is a were the character are seen as black. This is done with backlighting  cardboard cut outs. Ispired by the European play Ombres Chinoises. Silhouette animation was invented by more than one person.The earliest known silhouette is sporting mice a 1909 film made by the Charles Armstrong who was British. The traditional technique was created by Lotte Reinger

Model Based Animation

Model based animation is when clay models are made into figures to be used in animations. In the past model animation was first used in The lost World made by Willis O'Brien. He as also made animations for King Kong, The son of Kong, Mighty Joe Young and The Black Scorpion.  Other techniques can be used for model animation such as Build up Models. Although these type of models are a lot more detailed expensive than the clay model animations. To make a body of a build up model you start with a metal skeleton and start building the body by adding bits of foam then you can cast rubbery skins to put on the figure or brush on layers of liquid latex onto to figure.  There is one more other type of model which is called Casted models. This is the most expensive type to use in the model animation industry but they do last longer than the other types. They are made by having a clay sculpture and adding 3 or more parts on top of it.  This part moulding is done to reproduce the details of it. Then the moulds are reassembled with liquid material in them, eg:  silicone rubber. which then makes soft rubbery flesh over the skeleton.

Wallace and Gromit is a prime example of model based and stop motion animation. After the setting and plasticizing of the models the movies are shot frame by frame, after each from the character models move slights which gives the impression that the figure is moving when the film is played back. Wallace and Gromit sometimes double their frames if there is a small amount of motion, but this is quite common with other animation techniques. In the action scenes the animators might even use more than one exposure per frame which can make a faux motion blur. In Wallis and Gromit one second of film consists of 24 separate frames this means even a 30 minute film will a great amount of time generally at filming rate it takes a day to get 30 frames. Which is just over one second of film

 The feature length The Curse of the Were-Rabbit took over 15 months to create but it also grossed $192.6 million for box office.

Cel animation technique

Celluloid is when two objects have been painted or drawn on a transparent sheet.  Usually characters are drawn on cels which are then put over a set static background drawing this is helpful as it reduces the number of images that have to be drawn. It also helps the studio team to make their animation quicker because the production can be split up and given to different specialised teams.  Using this to produce films is a much more cost friendly. Cel animation lets some parts of every frame to repeat from frame to frame. For example imagine a scene with two characters on the screen one of the characters is talking and the other is completely silent. Because one of the character isn't moving, it can be used in the scene with only one official drawing, whilst more drawing on different cels are used to make animate the speaking\moving character.

  This is example of cel animation is Ed,Edd n Eddy which first aired in 1999 and sadly stopped in 2009.

This is an example of cel animation which was made by Matt Groening. The first episode was made in 1989 and is still the most well known cartoon.  Both of these 

This is a sample of how cel animation is made.It is a step to step guide made by the Youtuber Bruce Blitz.

The simpsons in 2015

The Simpsons in 1989

  As you can see over the year the quality of the Simpsons has improved a lot. This could possibly be from the money that has been made due to all the money which leads to more employers to create episodes a lot faster.                   

                                           

One of the most famous cel animators is the well known Walt Disney. Born in Chicago Disney was interested in drawing at a very young age. When he was a young boy he did art classes, at the age of 18 Walt became a commercial illustration. in the early 1920's Walt made the Disney brothers studio alongside his brother Roy, that is where Walt developed Mickey Mouse the rest is history. Bellow is a video of exactly how disney cartoons were made. A example of Walt Disneys creations is Snow White and the Sever Dwarfs which is an 1937 animated musical which got Disney on the map with an $8million which is allowed Disney to create more and more cartoons and rule the animation world. Although Walt Disney created these stories the infamous Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Mickey Mouse were both drawn by the Animator Ub Iwerks
