Nostalgic Perspective :
We all have fond memories of many of the most well-known animations, such as The Simpsons, Tom&Jerry, The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, and many others, and this familiarity with animation short films and cartoons makes it easy for us to clearly remember Scooby- Doo's famous voice or the daily fights between Tom and Jerry.
History and evolution of animations :
Animated movies and films began in the 1850s, and that's before cinematography come into our world. It started with the shadow play moving the hands in a dark place with a bit of light, then they used the flipping cards, but it needs to be at a minimum of 24 fps (Frames per Second) when moving the cards, which made it hard to continue.
After that, humans developed techniques, and the camera was invented, so the most prominent companies at the time hired the most talented painters to draw every scene in animated video, making it difficult to make an episode longer than one minute because the artist must draw >24 pictures for every second of the video. Still, this technique was used for a long time until the stop motion method started to see the light. In that period, it depended on the camera and clay (at most times) by changing the shapes of clay and taking many pictures for every scene; one of the most famous animations that used this method is Shaun The Sheep.
In the 1950s, computers took place, and animation videos started being computerized, which means a new era has begun.
Idea and concept :
We prefer to skip straight to the point and move quickly through the story events as viewers because we want to focus on the overall concept of the video we're watching, and that's what animations provide.
Most animation cartoons or short films have short episodes that can be enjoyed by people of all ages, including older adults.
Genres and budget:
Animated films have a more comprehensive range of genres than standard TV shows. Also, the production is far smoother than in real-life movies, owing to the low budget, which eliminates the need to pay famous actors large sums of money or overcome business obstacles.
Conclusion:
Finally, dismissing animation as a medium is akin to dismissing music as a medium. JUST MUSIC, NOT POP MUSIC OR ANYTHING ELSE.
It's a broad medium, and you can see its success for yourself by reading about the most popular animations, such as AOT, Death Note, One Piece, and so on...
