Who is the star with the highest appearance rate this year? It must be Tom and Jerry Mouse, Mickey and his friends...
With the arrival of the Year of the Rat, animated images of rats have followed.
Throughout 2020, "rats" you look the best!
In the zodiac, although the rat is the first, but the reputation is not good, but we can always find the figure of the rat in the film and television works we watched as a child, and they are righteous and brave.
"Tom and Jerry" is a very classic cartoon, this animation can be said to have accompanied our entire childhood, and even now many people are watching it. The main story in the animation is the story between Tom Cat and Jerry Mouse, and the war between the two enemies brings us a lot of jokes.
It is expected that in the Year of the Rat, this "Tom and Jerry" wind will have to blow for a while.
Since its appearance in 1940, it has been one of the most popular cartoons in the world, and after being introduced to China in the 1990s, it has been fanatically loved by people from 6 to 60 years old, and has won 7 Academy Awards, which is the animation film that has won the most Academy Awards, and is an animation film suitable for all ages.
The post-80s and post-90s childhoods were lucky to have "Tom and Jerry" with them, and even the post-00s said so.
Why is a cat and a mouse so popular?
The answer is to do it with your heart, do it continuously, and do it repeatedly.
How hard does Tom and Jerry really care? We can feel it by looking at a few clips.
The episode of the Cats' Concerto. Under Jerry's trick-or-treating, tom "cooperated" to complete a "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2", in which the rhythm of the fight and the beat of the music corresponded one-to-one.
In the episode of "The Universal Conductor", Tom's command action is consistent with the real conductor. Whether it is the expression, movement, or background of the characters, they are all depicted in detail.
There is also the refrigerator where tom eats every time, and the food inside is not to say that Tom will steal it when he sees it, and we will swallow it when we see it.
The most important thing is that the main creators have created the character of Tom and Jerry, the plump image, the vivid plot, and many classic clips have been born.
Version 70 is the most classic version, and it is also the most popular version of major domestic television sets. When I was a child, there was a program dedicated to on-demand, and it was this period that was broadcast.
In the early 1970s, the image of cats and mice became almost entirely geometric patterns, and since then it has gradually returned to the early style of painting.
The animation's core creators at its heyday were William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Neither is an animation major. William was an architecture major and Joseph was an accountant, but both lost their jobs due to the effects of the economic crisis and began to approach animation.
In order to accurately express the form of the character, William Hanner imitated the character's movements regardless of the image at the script meeting. The animator of the cartoon looks in the mirror and imagines the various expressions that the character can display in various situations.
In that era, there was no PS, no 3D, and the animations you saw were slowly drawn by hand, one by one.
It is precisely for this reason that we can see such exaggerated actions and funny plots. Every little detail in the animation can stand up to our scrutiny. Real details make or break.
In addition to the care of quality, the control of the animation plot itself also stems from their understanding of life and friendship, integrating life into animation, so that the works created are particularly touching.
Most of the cartoons the two collaborated on revolved around their friendship. In their work, they complement each other's advantages and their division of roles complement each other. They are the kind of good friends who can't beat them any way, like the live-action version of Tom and Jerry.
In countless games between Tom and Jerry, when Tom temporarily has the upper hand, he will always make a lot of strange ways to play. Convert Jerry into a yo-yo, a ping-pong ball and the like. Teasing Jerry became Tom's joie de vivre.
Just like many storylines, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, and the friendship is also heating up in the fight.
Unconsciously, they slowly became indispensable companions in each other's lives.
Jerry, a little mouse who always looks at the camera with provocative eyes. Often teasing Tom inadvertently, sometimes teasing Tom will also enjoy Tom's concern for it and make it move.
May you go back to Tom and Jerry and you'll still laugh like a child. (Source| Play Vending Machine)
