I chose this subject because I have always enjoyed the animated Disney movies as a child (and I not going to stop anytime soon), and recently I have been exploring other movies/shows that classed themselves as a animated feature. I was surprised at all the different styles and subcategories
Here in the blog we will be looking at four/five different types available that are considered the most recognized: 2D, 3D, Stop/Clay and Anime
These styles are popular due to the big explosion in visual media/ pop culture in the last twenty years; Simpsons, Wallace and Gromit, Disney/ Pixar, Poke'mon and Shrek are the best examples due to their immense popularity among a range of different age groups.
The RSS blog I found Cartoon Brew, is written by two animation historians. It has some really good information about the animation categories, as well as the companies and people that work in the industry and what is coming out. If the reader was interested in some other good sites about animation, there is a list of recommend sites and blogs down the side of the blog.
