A Brief History of Computer Animation: 1942-1963

A Brief History of Computer Animation: 1942-1963 Over the next few months we are going to be producing a series of videos on the history of computer animation. To begin, we’re going to be looking at the medium’s infancy between the years 1942 and 1963. We will see the work of James and John Whitney, Russell Kirsch’s first digital image, and the early innovations of Ivan Sutherland and Bell Labs. Also included is a quick history of animation, from the Palaeolithic period to the German abstract movement of the 1920s. If you're interested in learning more, check out the links below!
