Early examples of attempts to capture the phenomenon of motion into a still drawing can be found in paleolithic cave paintings,
where animals are often depicted with multiple legs in superimposed
positions, clearly attempting to convey the perception of motion.
An earthen goblet discovered at the site of the 5,200-year-old Shahr-e Sūkhté (Burnt City) in southeastern Iran, depicts what could possibly be the world's oldest example of animation. The artifact bears five sequential images depicting a Persian Desert Ibex jumping up to eat the leaves of a tree.
Ancient Chinese records contain several mentions of devices that were
said to "give an impression of movement" to human or animal figures, these accounts are unclear and may only refer to the actual movement of the figures through space.They may, of course, refer to Chinese shadow puppets.
In the 19th century, the phenakistoscope (1832), zoetrope (1834) and praxinoscope (1877) were introduced. A thaumatrope
(1824) is a simple toy with a small disk with different pictures on
each side; a bird in a cage and is attached to two pieces of strings.The phenakistoscope was invented simultaneously by Belgian Joseph Plateau and Austrian Simon von Stampfer in 1831. The phenakistoscope consists of a disk with a series of images, drawn on radi evenly space around the center of the disk.
John Barnes Linnett patented the first flip book in 1868 as the kineograph.The common flip book
were early animation devices that produced an illusion of movement from
a series of sequential drawings, animation did not develop further
until the advent of motion picture film and cinematography in the 1890s.
The cinématographe
was a projector, printer, and camera in one machine that allowed moving
pictures to be shown successfully on a screen which was invented by
history's earliest filmmakers, Auguste and Louis Lumière, in 1894. The first animated projection (screening) was created in France, by Charles-Émile Reynaud. who was a French science teacher. Reynaud created the Praxinoscope in 1877 and the Théâtre Optique in December 1888. On 28 October 1892, he projected the first animation in public, Pauvre Pierrot, at the Musée Grévin in Paris.This film is also notable as the first known instance of film
perforations being used. His films were not photographed, they were
drawn directly onto the transparent strip.In 1900, more than 500,000 people had attended these screenings.
