A Very Brief History of Animation
As with Hollywood films, America has been a centre for animated films.

Winsor McCay (USA) who created, Sinking of Lusitania (1918), Emile Cohl and George Melies (France) are regarded as the pioneers of animation. For a long time, Walt Disney’s animated films gained immense popularity by being aired on television. Disney was a charismatic personality who created Steamboat Willie (1928), SnowWhite and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), the first full length feature animation.

Pixar began in 1979 as an unit of Lucasfilm; was acquired by Apple Computer in 1986 and by the Walt Disney Company in 2006. It has produced several feature length animation including Toy Story (1995); A Bug's Life (1998), Monsters Inc. (2001), Finding Nemo (2003), Cars (2006), and Ratatouille (2007). Many of these films have won critical acclaim and have been financial successes.

DreamWorks Studios, was started in 1994 by Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen (SKG), with support from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, following Katzenberg's resignation from The Walt Disney Company.

DreamWorks Interactive is a video and computer game developer founded in 1995.DreamWorks Animation has produced some of the highest grossing animated hits of all time, such as Antz (1998), Shrek (2001), Madagascar (2005), Wallace & Gromit (2005), Kung Fu Panda (2008), Monsters Vs. Aliens (2009), How to Train Your Dragon (2010), and Puss in Boots (2011).
Close to bankruptcy.

However, it must be borne in mind that voices that speak gently often say things that have great value. Several other countries, such as Canada, Czechoslavia, Iran, France, Italy, Japan have created animation films that are outstanding. The Zagreb animation created by artists and animators of the Czech Republic have a very different flavor than the slapstick storytelling associated with films and animation in America. Norman MacLaren, Carolyn Leaf, Ishu Patel created some very unusual animation for the National Film Board of Canada. In recent times a few animators have gone on to create feature length animations through individual effort.
One of them is the American animator Bill Plympton who created Tune (1992).Jan Švankmajer is a contemporary animator whose work has a disturbing quality about it and does not lend itself to easy interpretations.

The animation industry in India is in its infancy and has the potential to grow. Like any other industry its success shall depend on long term policies and investments in the creation of human resources by the government and private schools and infrastructures for employment by the industry.
