I am doing a timeline in poster form on A3 sized paper to describe the history of Cel animation. In this post I will list all the sources I used in order to find each piece of information.
The first thing I did was I looked at my 'Children's Bretannica' books I have at home. I didn't find any information on 'animation' or 'cel animation', but I did find a short amount of information under the word 'cartoon' in book 4.
On the topic of the history of animation, it says:
'There are some cartoons made by Raphael, the famous Italian artist, in 1520.'
and 'Walt Disney's Pinocchio, about the puppet who came to life, was one of the first full length cartoon films.'
Another book I read and got sources from was one entitled 'Of Mice and Magic: a History of American Animated Cartoons'. From this I learnt that in 1921, many famous comic book writers of the time transfered their talents to animation. Examples of these are Milt Gross and Sidney Smith.
