Sexy anime
Anime is the term used to describe the animated movie / cartoon Japan. The word is derived from the animation that the Japanese pronunciation becomes animeshon. The word was later shortened to
anime. Although the anime is basically not intended exclusively for Japanese animation, but most people use these words to distinguish between an animated film made in Japan and non-Japanese.
The history of animation works in Japan begins with doing the First Experiments in Animation by Bokoten Shimokawa, Koichi Junichi, and Kitayama Seitaro in 1913. Then followed a short film (only lasted about 5 minutes) work entitled Oten Shimokawa Imokawa Mukuzo Genkanban no Maki in 1917. At that time Oten takes 6 months just to do the animation over 5 minutes and still be "a silent movie." Work Oten was then followed by the anime titled Saru Kani Kassen and Momotaro Kitayama Seitaro work in 1918, which made for the movie company Katsudo Nihon Shashin (Nikatsu). In 1918 Seitaro re-create anime with no Banpei Taro title. But all records about the anime is said to be lost due to the earthquake in Tokyo in 1923.
Besides Oten and Seitaro, there are also several other animators like, Junichi Kouichi (Hanahekonai Meitou no Maki, 1917), Sanae Yamamoto (Obasuteyama, 1924), Noburo Ofuji (Saiyuki, 1926 and Urashima Taro, 1928), Yasushi Murata (Dobutsu Olympic Taikai , 1928). At the moment, there are also the first anime that have a sequel that is Sarugashima (1930) and the continuation of Kaizoku-bune (1931).
In 1927, the United States has managed to create animations by using sound (it was only using background music). Japan then follow the steps and the first anime to use the sound of music is Kujira (1927) work Noburo Ofuji. While the first anime that "talk" is the work entitled Kuro Nyago Ofuji (1930) and a duration of 90 seconds. One of the anime that was recorded before World War II broke out and was the first anime to use the optical track (as used in the present) is Chikara To Onna No Yononaka (1932) by Kenzo Masaoka.
In 1943, Masaoka along with his disciples, Senoo Kosei, they make less than five episodes of the anime titled Momotaro no Umiwashi (Momotaro, the Sea Eagle). This is an anime that aired the first Japanese anime with a duration of more than 30 minutes (short animated feature film). Near the end of the War of the Pacific, namely in April 1945, Senoo have made and display approximately nine episodes of the anime which is a major work, Momotaro: Umi no Shinpei (Momotaro: Devine Soldier of the Sea).
This anime is the first Japanese anime-length, which is about 72 minutes (animated feature film).Both are anime propaganda legend adapted from the famous Japanese story, Momotaro, and is one of the most popular anime at that time.
Noburo Ofuji also never tried to make anime that color. At that time he made the anime Ogon no Hana (1930) with only 2 colors, but never released.The first anime that was released with new colors appear long after it is Boku no Yakyu (194 8) by Megumi Asano.
After World War II, anime and manga industry to rise again thanks to Osamu Tezuka. The man dubbed the "God of Manga" is at that time was only about 20 years and his work is Shintakarajima which appeared in 1947. Only in a few years, Tezuka became very famous.

World's first children's story book with 3D animation
Finland has published the world's first interactive 3D animation story book to offer children a brand new experience day.
The 3D animation story book for children is just like normal fairy books, only with some special small black squares in some pages of it to point to the interactive 3D animation. Once the web camera faces toward a black square, 3D-animation cartoon figures and pictures will come into view in computer screen. This latest technology be relevant to the children's story book was uniquely developed by the Technical Research Center of Finland with many years research on "Augmented Reality" technology.
According to a researcher from the technical research center, the so-called "Augmented Reality" is to add virtual reality on top of real video. The technology, though still in the childhood phase, is believed to be widely useful for mobile devices, mobile phones and game consoles, as well as the printing media, like newspapers. However, Finnish book publishers do not see this new 3D technology would threaten the traditional children's books, rather its added value is to bring more surprises to children.

North Korea emerges as animation producer
North Korea’s information technology (IT) industry, in particular in the field of computer-based animation production, is well on its way to achieve success, according to a Dutch outsourcing specialist currently conducting IT business with North Korean companies.
The ceremony was planned by the Hanns Seidel Foundation, a German organization. “Pororo the Little Penguin,” an animated cartoon series, was an inter-Korean project finished in 2002. Also the same year, Akom, a South Korean company, also outsourced the production of “Empress Chung” to North Korea. The animation was released in 2005.
Tjia stated that some of the American Walt Disney animations were created by North Koreans, merely by accident. Politically North Korea and America have a barbed relationship and the American government prohibits the private sector from doing business with North Korean companies.
“There was a time when Walt Disney outsourced their animation production to countries in Asia like Vietnam or the Philippines. But the company didn’t have whole control over exactly which country the work was shaped, and found out later that some was produced in North Korea,” he said, adding that this was discovered after the animations had aired on TV.
An official at the Seoul Animation Center confirmed some of what the Dutchman said, confirming that Walt Disney’s outsourcing to Asia was true, and that’s accurately how South Korea’s animation industry took off. The news of a burgeoning animation industry in North Korea comes as a revelation to many who are used to hearing mainly about food shortage, human rights violations and the regime’s nuclear ambitions.
Primary Look: Disney going old school with new Pooh
"Winnie the Pooh" will be back to his old nature again next year.
Walt Disney Animation Studios is returning the honey-loving teddy bear and his pals to their hand-drawn animated roots for a feature film plunging into theaters July 15, 2011. The new "Winnie the Pooh," the first big-screen "Pooh" quest from Disney animators in more than 30 years, will more closely look like the classic short films from the 1960s and '70s.
"We wanted to create a movie for the big screen that had the appeal and wit of those innovative shorts," said Peter Del Vecho, the film's producer. "What originally endeared all of us adults and children to these characters was that they were distended animals that came to life in the imagination of a child. We wanted to renew that imagination in a big way."
Pooh and company will relinquish recent puppet-powered, computer-generated Disney Channel makeovers in favor of the old-fashioned illustrative style that places the silly bear and his friends among the pages of a storybook. Jim Cummings ("The Tigger Movie") returns as the voice of Pooh and Tigger, with John Cleese ("Monty Python") serving as the storyteller.
While this version of "Pooh" won't be produced by a computer or projected in 3-D, Del Vecho cautioned it wouldn't simply be a redux of past "Pooh" projects. He said the film, spearheaded by Disney and Pixar animation Chief John Lasseter, will trait five new original songs and a faster pace punctuated with humor that's fitting for modern audiences.
"We're definitely resyetting the franchise and using this film as the instance to set for the studio," said Del Vecho. "Many versions have been done, and it's been a way for the property to live on in children's minds, but we're eager this is a new phase for 'Winnie the Pooh.' It's a return to quality storytelling that's been missing in more recent projects."
The Clone Wars: Ahsoka in New Look
When Ahsoka Tano shows up in this week's episode of The Clone Wars Friday night, you'll notice some differences. The episode "Heroes on Both Sides" will bring in all-new character models for several characters on the show, including Anakin, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka.For Anakin and Obi-Wan, their form is much more styled after their outfits in Revenge of the Sith, with both discarding the pieces of Clone Trooper armor they've been wearing up until now
"Over the course of the series so far, our characters have been affected by the clash, so the changes we are seeing are a reflection of what they've gone through and how they've changed," says Supervising Director Dave Filoni. "We're getting closer to the events of Episode III, and the look of the series is moving toward that look and those plans." Anakin's hair is also a bit longer, heading towards the look he had in reprisal of the Sith
As for Ahsoka, her form is a bit more drastically overhauled. Not only does she look a bit older, but her new costume covers her up more than her previous tube top look did. Says Filoni, "We don't have a live-action point of comparison for Ahsoka, but her development is definitely as pronounced as anyone's. When the war began, she was just a kid; she was strong and capable, but she had a lot to learn – and she's been through a lot. She's been changed by the things she's seen and done, and now we're seeing that reflected in her look. She's older, more mature. In this episode, we see a significant step for her emotional development, in addition to her aesthetic development. Coming face to face with the enemy is going to be an eye-opening experience for her."
Filoni notes that the new character models are part of the ever-evolving animation on the series. "Our production keeps getting better; as we move forward, we're able to incorporate new techniques and improved animation. As a weekly series, we've been pushing ourselves to do things that haven't been done in TV animation, and it's always a struggle just to get it done at all. But we are learning tricks that help to streamline the process, and we continue to build our asset library. We're at a place where we can explore and develop new and improved character assets for some of our primary players. In addition to the look change, these new models are so much more expressive."
Cartoon Network's CGI movie Firebreather Has Daddy Issues
High school, for any kid, is tough enough. But if you're half-human, half-Kaiju it’s a mess. Cartoon Network's first unique CGI movie, Firebreather, follows 16-year-old Duncan Rosenblatt as he deals with his unique appearance superhuman abilities, typical girl troubles and an estranged father the size of a skyscraper who now wants a relationship with his son.And while the movie based on the Image Comics series of the same name is packed with exciting and complicated action sequences, it was the character of Belloc, a 120-foot giant who somehow sired a son with Duncan's mother, Margaret, which created the project's greatest challenge.
"Belloc had to be attractive and charming enough as a character would believe that there could have been that relationship between him and Duncan's mother that could result in Duncan," says director Peter Chung. "Their relationship is such a vital part of what's driving Duncan and his inner conflict." And you thought your parents were uncomfortable.
Peter Chung Takes ‘the Big Risk’ With CGI-Animated Firebreather
Infamously risky but rewarding animator Peter Chung has finally made a film for everybody in Firebreather. If his new all-CGI movie is a hit on Cartoon Network, the Aeon Flux creator hopes it will assure Hollywood that the time is right to pull the trigger on other adult-oriented animated movies.
Margaret and Belloc's carnal knowledge is something Duncan doesn't want particulars on, as one hilarious scene illustrates, but the cross-species sexual union fits perfectly with Chung's previous adult-oriented explorations in daring animated series like Aeon Flux and Reign: The Conqueror, as well as Ralph Bakshi's cult fantasy film Fire and Ice, one of Chung's earliest animation gigs.
Similarly, Firebreather, which first appearances Wednesday on Cartoon Network, finds Chung striking a confident balance between breathtaking action sequences, ranging from parkour chases to full-scale military and supernatural warfare, and the subtle shot-blocking that infuses the film's quieter moments with relatable psychodrama.
Not bad, considering Firebreather is Chung's first CGI feature film, and that he had zero contact to the comic prior to starting the project. From designing the main humanoid and demonic characters to naturally directing Firebreather's incendiary action and tender relationship sequences, Chung has proven he can do it all, for any target audience.
My Favourite Animation Movies
1. Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Not sure how many remember this... but it's one of the cartoons I'd remember watching as a kid. At that time, there aren't that many animation that is being released & shown here hence of course it makes this quite a fun watch (which kid wouldn't?).
Btw, I still remember KFC tying up with this movie - buy KFC and get the bunny & friends toys!
*I'm putting this here though it's not full animation cos I think this is one of the very first animation movies I've watched when it was still hot (ie newly released).
2. The Little Mermaid
Why I like it:
Well, living underwater (singing & dancing as well) - this is rather imaginative. But what I like most is the songs & the group dances - like Under The Sea & Kiss The Girl. Till today, I think songs from The Little Mermaid is still one of the best songs an animation have produced.
3. Beauty & The Beast
I can't remember much from this movie but I do know that is has good songs, great animation (the ballroom dance is still remarkable to me till today) and a decent storyline - one with Disney's heart warming touch.
However, if I can change one part - wouldn't it be better if the Beast remained as... the Beast?
4. Aladdin
Mystical and magical.. ahh, the kind of story I like. Flying carpet, genie, Arabian city - what a good mix... And like this period, I love the songs from the movie especially one where the Genie sings and the other of course, the main theme song A Whole New World.5. Lion King
Another one of my favourite storylines: the nobody-turn-hero story. Again, it's this time when Disney's movies have great memorable songs like the romantic Elton John's Can You Feel The Love Tonight or the other Disney's trademark, the pompous I Just Can't Wait To Be King.6. Toy Story
Moving away from the traditional way of the late 80s & early 90s style of musical animation comes Toy Story. Gone are the group songs or even romantic duets.
But still, this movie found a place in me.. and while I must say that though I can't remember Toy Story 1 nor 2 much, but it is the more recent Toy Story 3 that captures my attention most - mainly for its heart warming storyline (awwww).
And even without that many songs, the main theme song You've Got A Friend In Me, is still one cool song!
7. A Bug's Life
Antz vs A Bug's Life - and I'd give the latter the thumbs up... somehow the more down to earth blue ant seems more appealing. Btw, the story is again similar to The Lion King - yes, the unexpected hero.
8. Shrek
Usually, the prince is the ugly one while the princess is the pretty one.. but not in this case (hence maybe the tagline - the greatest fairytale ever).
But anyway that doesn't matter here - the movie is funny, and the songs used are popular catchy tunes.. which makes the movie rather exciting! And that zorro like cat & his pussy eyes (who can forget him holding the hat with the sad sad eyes? haha!)
9. Monsters, Inc
One of my other all time favourite animation is this (again) heart warming story.. of a very unlikely match: a ferocious monster and an innocent little girl (and the funny green one eyed monster)... But like most movies, the girl manage to turn the monster around to show his caring side (awwww).
10. Lilo & Stitch
I think I've said enough of the blue alien character in my previous blog post: Ohana Means Family, which btw is my favourite cartoon of all time, so far.
11. Finding Nemo
Okay, I like the sea a lot.. so when it comes with underwater animation, it usually fascinates me. But of course, I think this movie did well in animation - the colours are astounding and it has a rather interesting & unique storyline - a fish and its adventure across the globe!
Btw, I recall the jelly fish scene and also the ending where the fishes were all trapped in the plastic wraps (now were they eventually back into the sea?)
12. The Incredibles
Another type of movies that I like - superheroes... yeah, your average human beings who acts just like everyone else, but who actually are heroes with superpowers. So that obviously make me like this movie... but more than that, I like this animation too for it is not about just 1 superhero, but instead it's a group - and a family too!
That's where teamwork comes into play - putting aside their differences!.
13. Madagascar
Not another lion cartoon? Well no doubt there's a lion here, but this is not like the more serious Lion King.. instead, it's a group of funny & superly hilarious bunch of zoo animals. While the main casts of the lion, giraffe, hippopotamus and zebra are cool - but so are the sidekick penguins! (the movie just won't be the same without them!).
14. Happy Feet
I never thought much of this animation by its poster.. but I was in for a good ride watching this movie. I remember leaving the cinema very inspired & yes, happy!
15. Ratatouille
While the past decade saw mainly animals only or human only cartoons, but this rat movie bridged the gap.. it was a friendship between humans, and errr.. rats! The setting in scenic Paris and the set in the kitchen were also plus points to this movie.
*While I enjoyed this movie, however, I doubt that many people will have bought rats as compared to buying the fish (from Finding Nemo).. haha!
16. Kung Fu Panda
Just like Ratatouille, I like this movie for its beautiful setting - set in non other than great China! Great kung fu fighting scenes, great animation, but more to it, I like this animation most for its inspiring message - to believe in one's self (who says cartoon is bad for kids.. and adults too?).17. WALL-E
Think robots & cartoons - and usually the image of super robots come into mind. But in this movie, it's not the case to be.. instead comes a robot that is maybe less than 1/1oth the size of Optimus Prime from Transformers!
But still I find this movie heart warming.. although it still uses the same storyline of the 'unexpected' hero - with a touch of romance. Robot in love - ah, that's interesting!
18. Up
Another unusual combination - a blur, talkative & fat scout with a grumpy old man. But in fact, it is this contrasting characters that make this animation work.
I like the opening of this movie where it bring the viewers on the love story of the old man & his wife.. and I also like the part where the house can actually fly - now that's animation alrite!
Whew, what a long list there..! Yes, I am an animation fan - big time. haha!
Btw, is there any of your favourite animation that I've missed?
Tangled' a smash: will Disney still retreat from fairy tales?
The talk before the exuberant cartoon "Tangled" opened was that Disney's 50th animated featured would also be its final full-length fairy tale. Now that this funny, beguiling expansion of the Grimms' "Rapunzel" has given the new Harry Potter movie a run for the box-office crown this Thanksgiving weekend with the long-locked heroine losing to the boy wizard by, well, a hair will Disney animation chief John Lasseter rethink his reported ban on storybook fantasy? Doesn't the success of this movie prove that with the right blend of tradition and invention animated fairy tales can still click, artistically and at the box office? Is it a cartoon? Chapter 1

Now here is a cynical horror made by scum:
I think I'll start a series of posts to see how many people think there is a distinct difference between what is a cartoon drawing and what is pretend.
The line between cartoons and lies is really obvious to me and has been since I was a small tot with a big head and eyes myself.
I'll start it off with some of my picks.
CARTOON
All these artists are cartoonists. They understand that their pictures are supposed to be fun to look at and instantly appealing. Cartoonists like you.

Little tiny snake eyes on fat mammals are so cute!
If it says "'TOON" in front of it, it's a guarantee it's not a cartoon.
It's amazing that Bugs Bunny survived this line-up! Although cut to shreds...The worst was when it became vogue to make pretend "classic-style" cartoons and they got the same old Saturday Morning cartoon writers who wrote Scooby Doo and Superfriends to watch a couple of old Bugs Bunnies and then try to write like that in script form. The writers didn't understand cartoon jokes, so they would copy the old ones and then explain them to the audience. And the actual cartoonists on the shows that really did love the old cartoons had no say in the making of them.
And then they ship all the art and animation to Korea where they really have no idea what makes American cartoon drawings and animation work...and don't care.
Well these were all easy.
I'll try to find some that are trickier next time and you can vote on them.
Kali just pointed this out to me:
A real sign of fake cartoons. Cartoons that teach you something that the creators themselves don't believe. Like-just because you are crippled, doesn't mean you can't be a great athlete just like all the other kids.And just because you are retarded and evil, doesn't mean you can't make up cartoons.
Real cartoons can easily do this:
