Animation

Old animation has been in the publics mind for decades and still it keeps peoples attention just as much if not more than newer animation. I have always been very interested, in older music and older animation. The soundtracks and sound effects in warner brothers animation is so on point it makes every piece of theirs a work of art. In filmmaking these two can be the difference between an alright film and a good film and there sound effects and score really add a lot to their aniamtion. The style of animation is very retro with odd shapes and sizes and very vivid colors. The style is very loose but at the same time completely in order. The sense of space is as good as any animation you would see today, Eveyrhting feels open and the dof is very realistic every scene has a bit of blur which makes landscapes feel very large. There couldnt be any more character to this cartoon. Everything from the way its drawn, to the voices, to the sound effects and the characters characteristics give the piece an overall character that you cant find in any other animation. The animiation feels very alive from the start because of the characters looks and their voices, so right away you get pulled in, then the story comes alive with a twist and funny moments. All these elements are used to make the video watchable the whole way through, Videos are only as strong as their weakest link and since every area is of a high standard you get caught up in it. Specifically the music, it adds so much quality and fits with the animation perfectly.
