Animation Industry

Communication Services

The animation industry is the business of producing animated films, television series, music videos, advertising, video games and visual effects, in which pictures are created or manipulated and played in sequence to give the illusion of moving images. Animation is recognised as an artistic medium within the entertainment industry. Studios work in traditional hand-drawn animation, stop motion and in particular claymation, and computer animation made with computer-generated imagery, in both two and three dimensions, and many filmmakers combine animation with live action. Animation is also prevalent in motion graphics, user interfaces and visual effects, so the industry supplies work beyond cinemas and television. The medium grew from nineteenth century devices such as the phenakistiscope, zoetrope and praxinoscope, and from early films such as Fantasmagorie in 1908.
