Mood board of images

To get an idea as to the different characters and themes of animation, I created a mood board with a range of images. The styles of animation have changed greatly over the years from the original black and white Mickey Mouse cartoons to the comic book style of the Simpsons. Audiences have also changed as animations such as Family Guy are directed at adults and contain adult content, whereas animations are more stereotypically aimed at children. The use of colour has also changed from the more washed out colouring like that used in the Snowman to bold solid colours used in Looney Tunes. The overall shapes and images used within animation have also changed from being reasonably simple to slightly more detailed.
