The lion king is an animated musical film which was produced in 1994. it was produced in Walt Disney Feature Animation and was released by Walt Disney Pictures.  The film utilizes the collaboration of formal technique and thematic content in order to create a live and complex experience for the viewers. in this film they used CGI (computer generated imagery) during the hand-drawn animation of Simba and Mufasa. Technicians use computers to digitally ink and paint the images and process them onto film.

Lotte Reiniger Lotte was one of the animation industry pioneers who specialized in silhouette animation. she invented a technique that involved cutting out pieces of lead and cardboard and animating them frame by frame under a camera.

Pioneers  Walter Elias Disney was a pioneer and innovator. He experimented with cartoon animation and evolved live action into his projects. Walt Disney used drawn/cel animation techniques. Techniques has changed over time for example in 'snow white' they used pencil and paper - drawing one frame at a time. the paper would be inked and painted on a piece of plastic called 'cel' and shot by an animated camera. eventually, they started using computer graphics so, instead of drawing a character you could build a character in the computer.
