For this short paper assignment I decided to talk about “Silly Symphony Series”. The Silly symphony shows its innovation with Technicolor and the multiplane motion picture camera. I chose to talk about 3 films that were produced. I will talk about “Flowers and Trees“,”Three little pigs”, and “The Old Mill”. I chose those 3 because it shows a lot of animation and Walt Disney short films. as a kid growing up I liked Walt Disney and mickey mouse.First, I watched “Flowers and Trees“, I enjoyed the idea of having color and the 2d animation. Also in this film it reminds me of tom ad jerry or early Mickey mouse time. Also the second short film that I decided to talk about is the “Three little pigs” whats drawn out for me is how they put music and words in the animation instead of it being a silent film. I like how there is comedy in these films makes me entertained. The third short film I watched “The Old Mill”. what i liked is how animals were used to make animation film.

question:

Can you imagine being an audience remember at one of Gaspard Robertson’s “Fantasmagorie” shows in 1797? What do you think your reaction would have been? Can you think of any form of entertainment that would elicit the same emotions today? (Re-)read/watch these resources for inspiration:

answer:

If I was one of the audience member at the Robertson’s Fantastic Phantasmagoria I would enjoy it. I watched lots of horror movies and videos. I like scary things and I like feeling the suspense when it comes to horror. I think my reaction would be priceless because I am not the type of person that gets scared easily. but I also think its interesting to see the shows that Robertson made. When it comes to horror entertainment it drags me in as an audience. it makes me want to keep questioning and thinking what the actor or actresses going to do. I like the suspense when things happen out of no where. A form of entertainment that would elicit my same emotions today would be the show Goosebumps where they have different scenario’s where I feel terrified.
