As cinema started developing among the mass and people were eager to watch content on silver screens it was quite evident for everyone to expect animation.<\/p>\n<p>Charles-\u00c9mile Reynaud, a French science teacher created the first animated projection. The history of animation goes way back. It all began with people flipping pages of books to create the flapping of books and make the bird fly. One of the very first successful animated cartoons was Gertie the Dinosaur (1914) by Winsor McCay.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-14414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.moople.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3-1.jpg\" alt=\"animation course\" width=\"811\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moople.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.moople.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3-1-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moople.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3-1-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 811px) 100vw, 811px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It is considered the first example of true character animation. At first, animated cartoons were black-and-white and silent. Felix the Cat and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit are notable examples. Reynaud created the Praxinoscope in 1877 and the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre Optique in December 1888.<\/p>\n<p>But in addition to that Fantasmagorie is a 1908 French animated film by \u00c9mile Cohl. It is one of the earliest examples of traditional and old or rather hand-drawn animation and considered by film historians to be the first animated cartoon. But if we actually talk about the most relevant and commercial animated character then <span style=\"color: #000080;\"><a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mickey_Mouse\">Mickey Mouse<\/a> <\/span>will definitely come at first.<\/p>\n<p>The thing with learning in an Animation academy is that you have to learn right from the very beginning. How is it possible to create something artistic without knowing the roots of it? That is the reason you need to know all about the first cartoon and animated characters and also a bit about their history.<\/p>\n<p>If you have thought of pursuing animation as a career then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moople.in\/\"><strong>Moople &#8211; Institute of Animation and Design<\/strong><\/a> <strong>in Kolkat<\/strong>a is the best place for you.
