Max Fleischer Max Fleischer is one of the many pioneers of animation. The story of Max Fleischer is one of the technical innovation, full of exploration in the production process of the animated films. He had put an animation together using a process he and his brother Dave had invented in 1915 called the rotoscope, still in use today, in which a strip of live-action footage can be traced and redrawn as a cartoon. They exploited this technique in their pioneered series "out of the inkwell" that showcase the interaction between human and drawn figures and because of that Disney struggle to imitate his early Alice cartoons. Fleischer's cartoon were rather rough than refined, commercial rather than consciously artistic. though Fleischer and Disney were rivals, as Betty Boop and Mickey Mouse were becoming the most famous animated characters, they were constantly pushing revolutionary techniques. reference: https://www.biography.com/people/max-fleischer-082515 ...

  Computer animation uses hardware and software to make the animation process feasible, faster and executable by less skilled and fewer creators. Computer animation creates the illusion of movement through a succession of computer-generated still images. It capitalises on a number of principals of human perception in order to trick the viewer into believing that the images seen on a 2D screen are 3D: the texture, colour and lighting of the 3D objects are modified using software programs and  the pictures has depth and is more realistic whereas 2D animators create frames to define a sequence that is then moved at varying speeds to create the illusion of motion. Pixar mostly uses computers (technology) to run the software which allows them to design concept works, produce storyboards, and especially animating software which allows them to create the animation in their films. also, they rely on powerful, specially designed computers to use the process of rendering....
