Manage episode 433475330 series 3389858
Animation is a highly flexible medium of filmmaking that allows for anything at all to exist in a movie. It also reveals a lot about the people who work on it through their brushstrokes, styles, techniques, and so on. Animation truly has limitless potential. In this series, Tony will explore some of the great animated classics that defined animation for generations, as well as those that may not have received the cultural praise they deserved but were still technical achievements on their own. Here's to all the animators of the world!
This movie is a landmark in the early development of film, because it demonstrated that animation is not only a viable medium but also that audiences can connect with an animated character just as well as with live-action ones. Join Tony as he reflects on the 1914 animated movie Gertie the Dinosaur.
