phim hoạt hình
Phim hoạt hình có ít giới hạn . Nếu bạn có thể vẽ một cái gì đó, bạn có thể làm cho nó di chuyển trên màn hình rạp chiếu phim. Việc sử dụng những ý tưởng mới và các chương trình máy tính tiên tiến có nghĩa là phim hoạt hình đang trở nên sôi động trở lại cho mọi người ở mọi lứa tuổi.
Đến cuối những năm 1970, thế giới điện ảnh đã quyết định rằng phim hoạt hình này chỉ dành cho trẻ em.
Nhưng ngay sau đó, một hoặc hai giám đốc đã có một số ý tưởng ban đầu. Họ đã chứng minh rằng nó đã có thể làm cho bộ phim mà cả người lớn và trẻ em có thể chia sẻ những niềm vui.
Tuy nhiên, không phải mọi bộ phim hoạt hình đã thành công. The Black Cauldron, ví dụ, đã thất bại, chủ yếu là bởi vì nó đã gây quá sợ hãi cho trẻ em và quá là trẻ em cho người lớn. Giám đốc học từ sai lầm này, và các công ty điện ảnh bắt đầu làm cho số lượng lớn
Phim hoạt hình có rất ít hạn chế. Nếu bạn có thể vẽ một cái gì đó, bạn cũng có thể làm cho nó di chuyển trên màn hình điện ảnh. Việc sử dụng những ý tưởng mới và các chương trình máy tính tiên tiến có nghĩa là phim hoạt hình đang một lần nữa trở nên thú vị cho mọi người ở mọi lứa tuổi.
Vào khoảng cuối thập niên 1970, ngành công nghiệp điện ảnh quốc tế đã quyết định rằng phim hoạt hình chỉ dành cho trẻ em.
Nhưng ngay sau đó, một hoặc hai người quản lý đã có một số ý tưởng mới ban đầu. Họ chứng minh rằng việc làm ra những bộ phim mà cả người lớn và trẻ em có thể chia sẻ niềm vui là có thể thực hiện được.
Tuy nhiên, không phải tất cả phim phim hoạt hình đều thành công. Ví dụ như bộ phim cái vạc màu đen thất bại chủ yếu bởi nó quá đáng sợ đối với trẻ em và quá trẻ con đối với người lớn. Những người quản lý đã học được từ sai lầm này, và các công ty sản xuất phim lại một lần nữa bắt đầu để kiếm một khoản tiền lớn.
