Classic animation refers to the traditional technique of creating moving images by displaying a series of individual drawings or paintings in rapid succession. This method often involves hand-drawn characters and backgrounds, which are then photographed frame by frame to produce the illusion of motion. Notable examples of classic animation include works from Walt Disney, such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Bambi. The process of classic animation can be labor-intensive, requiring thousands of frames to complete a single film. Artists often use techniques like cel animation, where characters are drawn on transparent sheets and layered over static backgrounds. This style has influenced many modern animations and remains a beloved art form in the history of cinema.
