The Sector Edition: Animation

   

Animation is vital to a range of other media sectors such as;
- TV
- Film
- Video Games
- Interactive Media
- Adverts
- Marketing

It's a brilliant and useful technique for TV, adverts and film to use within productions as well as being used for special effects.

Video games are based on and created with the use of animation, a virtual reality. It's engaging and immerses the player. 

Main animation companies are;
- Dreamworks (Owned by Paramount)
- Pixar (Owned by Disney)

Disney in general are primarily an animation company besides being the provider of Pixar.

Warner Bros. gave us Bugs Bunny, Tweety Pie, Daffy Duck and Sylvester in the form of Looney Tunes.

Kids television shows are usually animated also, the likes of Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network and Disney Junior.

Like in film, there are smaller companies who have still gained success, a clear example is the UK's Aardman Animations, responsible for the creation of Wallace & Gromit.
