  ABOUT  CARTOONS


Who invented cartoon?

The word "cartoon" was originally used by painters during the period of the Italian Renaissance. And in fact, it is still used today by artists. What they are referring to, however, is the first sketch in actual size of any work of art which covers a large area, such as a mural, a tapestry, or a stained- glass window. When newspapers and magazines began to use drawings to illustrate news and editorial opinion and to provide amusement, these drawings also came to be called "cartoons's! In the days before newspapers, famous caricaturists like Hogarth, Goya, Daumier, and Rowlandson made series of drawings on a single theme. These drawings often pictured the adventures of one character. They were the ancestors of present-day cartoons and comic strips. In the 19th and early 20th century there were a number of magazines which specialized in cartoons-Charivari in Paris, Punch in London, and Life and Judge in the United States. When most newspapers and magazines in the United States began to include cartoons as regular features, the humorous magazines lost their appeal and many of them stopped appearing. The first comic strips appeared in the early 1900's. Richard Outcault, the artist who created Buster Brown, published this comic strip in 1902. It was so popular that children all over the country wanted to dress in "Buster Brown" clothes. Another of the early comic strips was Bringing Up Father. This came out in 1912.

Why are cartoons called cartoons?
The word "cartoon" came from the Italian word carton and Dutch/Flemish word "karton", meaning strong, heavy paper or pasteboard. Because many illustrations were made as a full-size drawing on paper as a study for further drawings, such as paintings or tapestries, they chose the name "cartoon". 
Because of the stylistic similarities between comic strips and early animated movies, "cartoon" came to refer to animation, and this is the sense in which "cartoon" is most commonly used today.

What was the name of the first talking cartoon?

Steamboat Willie (1928), starring Mickey Mouse was advertised as "Sound Cartoon" is often cited as the first but in 1924, a film called My Old Kentucky Home by Max and Dave Fleischer was released using sound synchronization with the cartoon dog. Then in September of 1928, Van Beuren Studios released Dinner Time by Paul Terry and John Foster starring Farmer Al Falfa, Steamboat Willie was released in November 1928.

Mickey Mouse cartoons didn't have any dialogue, only singing and music. BOSKO THE TALK-INK KID was the first cartoon character to talk as demonstrated in the 1929 film, BOSKO THE TALK-INK KID, by Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising. It is a historic landmark in cartoon history, being the first cartoon to sync dialogue.
