On this blog I will be looking at the early stages of animation through to more recognisable and well known animation we are all familiar with.

Thursday, 5 January 2012

We are all familiar with Egyptian hieroglyphs and that they where some form of communication but animation sequences such as this combat/wrestling diagram where also created by the Egyptians.
This piece is approximately four thousand years old.

Although its depicted fairly clearly i feel that the sequences in which the actions are occurring may not make much sense if they where shown as animation like the jug example. This is due to the white and black characters switching places which occurs in some parts of the pictures.
