Title: "Cat Alarm"
Type: video
Date: October 25, 2007
Source: it is widely forward from the email
Reason: it is kind of 2D animation. The objects are flat and simple. They are made by the outline without color. When we see the cat is moving, it is sliding the frames quickly to form the movement.
Title: "Humorous Phases of Funny Faces"
Type: video
Producer: J. Stuart. Blackton
Date: October 22, 2007
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_animation
Reason: It is regarded as the first animated film. I think it is funny as i can almost see the making process. For example, i can see the artist is drawing steps by steps to "move" the characters. Through the film editing, drawing process formed an animation.

Reason: This is a 3D animation to work with computer animation. The scence, the rat, even other objects (cheese, water & plates) seem like so real. It can`t be finished by hand-drawing.

Title: "One Man Band"
Type: photo
Producer: Andrew Jimenez and Mark Andrews
Date: 2005
Source: http://showcase.awn.com/showphoto.php?photo=1271&cat=631
Reason: This is the short CGI film made by Pixar. It doesn`t like the long film as Toy Story but a simple storyboard. I first saw it as cinema trailer, and wondered the effect just like computer games.
