Black & White Animation

I dont' know much about animation history. All I know is I am in love with black and white classic films. Animation makes it better and exciting to watch. Animation is the Rapid sequence of images to create an illusion of movement. This is the definition of Animation based on WIKEPEDIA.

Here is a 1961 Chinese animation clip or a movie.. It is called 铁扇公主( or known as iron fan princess). This story is done in 1941 by China United Press or China United Press and was one of Asia's first long feature animation film. This film requires 100 or more people to work and has 20,000 drafts. Usage of papers for this film has been at least more than 400. Shanghai Financial Company has sponsored for this clip. Bai Hong (白虹). Yan Yue Ling(严月玲), Jiang Ming(姜明),Han Lan Gen(韩兰根),Yin Xiu Chen(殷秀岑).



Here's another black and white clip. The name of this animation clip is Samoyed Boy. It is created in 1928 and is directed by V. and Z. Brumberg, N.Khodataev, O.Khodataeva. It is done at 3rd Factory of Sovkinko and is made as a Silent Film. Iris Margolina created this Soviet Animation and is the first film for children. It was done in the tradition of the primitive painting of USSR's Northern peoples (Chuckcha and Eskimos). It was also the first Soviet film based on culture of the Northern people.
