Animations Evaluation

TV Shows and Movies 
Animation is used in many films and programs, I think that most of these are have a target audience of younger children because of their storylines and the way the character looks and act. There are many different styles of animation within these two categories, there are some sic-fi and fantasy an I think this is another thing that makes these shows and films for younger children.
An example of a film that is animated is The Lion King, I think the target audience for this film is also younger children even though a lot of older people may like this as well because it may remind them of their childhood. I also think a lot of people like the message of the story which could be another reason why older people like it although I think that younger children are the main audience for this movie; The Lion King was a hand-drawn animation, I think this is a really good animation. The Lion King was directed by Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff and  was produced by Don Hahn.
An example of a tv shows which is animated is The Simpsons, although this can be aimed at younger children there is also humour in there that normally children wouldn't understand so only adults pick up on it. A lot of different animations also do this so it can be aimed at a larger target audience.

Animation can also used in things like music videos, computer games, advertising and on the internet.
An example of an animation that is used in advertising is the way Kelloggs use animation. Kelloggs use animation in the way they advertising, they have used an animated character to advertise their brand. I think this is really effective because it has brought to live a character that could never really exist in reality and I think this is especially good to attract children to the brand. Advertising can also attract many different people
Animation may be used in music videos to a wider audience to the video and make the video more interesting and different to other things. Animation  could be used in computer games because computer games would be very different and a lot harder to make if actually people were used. Also animation means you don't have to something realistic and something that could me made in real life, with animation is can be anything. Animation is advertising is used to attract and wider range of people and make things happen that aren't really possible which intrigues people to the advert more. Animation is used in mobile phones when adverts come up and in games that can't be real and to make it more interest. On the internet animation is used to make thing more interesting which can make more people want to look at certain things.

There are also different types of animation, there is stop motion, 2d animation, 3d animation, flip book animation and hand-drawn animations, these are just some different types.
