Blackton Animation
Style
Blackton made a film in 1906 called “Humorous phases of
funny faces”, the first animation on film. He was the first to experiment with
the idea instead of just photography, that’s why there is also just bit of
normal film in it with the animation or doing it on film would have been
pointless.
After watching the Blackton film we made our own, filming
then stopping, then moving the image. It can become boring and slow but the end
result is amazing. Things moving that wouldn’t usually move come to life.
Making this style you must be careful, the camera has to be
very still depending on your scene. One screw up, one thing out of place and
you can destroy a good piece of work. Patience is a key factor in this, as I
said already it can become very boring.
