"Animated Cartoons: How They Are Made, Their Origin and Development" by E. G. Lutz is a detailed publication on animation techniques and the historical evolution of animated cartoons, written in the early 20th century. The work explores the processes and artistic endeavors involved in creating animated films, providing insights into the technical aspects of animation as well as the creative principles behind it. The book aims to educate readers on both the artistic and scientific elements that contribute to the emergence of animated cartoons as a distinct medium. The opening of the book introduces the concept of visual representation and motion, explaining the phenomenon of how moving images are perceived by the human eye through a series of still frames and the magic-lantern technique. Lutz discusses the fundamental principles of persistence of vision and how these relate to the creation of animated cartoons. He sets the stage for the exploration of various historical methods, including magic-lanterns and early motion-picture devices that led to the modern understanding of animated film production. The introduction lays the groundwork for a deeper investigation into the specific processes of creating animation, including the use of drawings, photography, and the potential educational applications of motion pictures.
