  • THE WORLD of IMAGIMATION: a Hundred Years of Animation Art from Around the World
    THE WORLD OF IMAGIMATION: A Hundred Years of Animation Art from Around the World By Hal and Nancy Miles (Copyright 2014) Works Descriptions and Labels (INCOMPLETE DESCRIPTIONS 10/27/2014) 1. Gertie The Dinosaur 1914 U.S.A. Original Animation Drawing India Ink on Rice paper Director: Zenas Winsor McCay Producer: Zenas Winsor McCay Animator: Zenas Winsor McCay Assistant Animator: John A. Fitzsimmons Gertie The Dinosaur is considered the first widely viewed, groundbreaking traditional hand drawn animation short. Gertie’s creator and animation pioneer Zenas Winsor McCay, who was quite the showman, astonished audiences by showing the extinct “great monsters that used to inherit the Earth” in action during his lavish stage performances. Several thousand individually hand drawn sheets of rice paper make up the complete animated film. Once Zenas Winsor McCay designed and drew the background for the film, he started on the animation of Gertie, the Woolie Mammoth, Sea Serpent, and additional tree, water, and rock animation as well as animating himself for a section of the film. Once he had created the animation on each piece of rice paper he would pass each one on to his assistant John A. Fitzsimmons who would precisely trace the background over and over again on each one without crossing the background lines into the animated characters. 2. Scientific American Magazine 1916 U.S.A.
