While building this project, there were many options of special events that I could use as a doodle. So it was hard to narrow it down at first. We went into popular inventions, special anniversaries, holidays, etc.
After much deliberation I narrowed it down to three things. 2D animation, Steamboat Willie (one of the first popular cartoons), and basketball. But basketball and Steamboat Willie had already been done. So I was left with 2d animation. I didn't know what I could do with 2d animation but the idea came to me. What's the first ever animated cartoon? Out of the results, I got Fantasmagorie which was drawn by Emile Cohl.
As the final product, this pays homage to the first animation in its likeness.
