Pioneers of Animation | Evolution of Cartoons, Part 2 (1894 to 1905)
303The Evolution of Cartoons: Part One – The Pre-History of Animation.
In this ongoing series I aim to chart the entire history of one of humankind’s most spectacular artforms – animation. In this part, we’ll discover the early pioneers at the dawn of celluloid film – from Thomas Edison and the Lumieres’ first cameras; to the earliest experimentation of animation put to celluloid film by Georges Méliès and J. Stuart Blackton
