First animated film made with standard picture film
Humorous Phases of Funny Faces is the earliest animated film ever made. It is a silent cartoon by J. Stuart Blackton released in the year 1906. J. Stuart Blackton, one of the co-founders of the Vitagraph Company was a newspaper cartoonist. It was the first animated work on standard picture film, using the single frame method and was projected at 20 frames per second. It is the earliest surviving American animated film.
The story in brief:
The film is about a cartoonist's line drawings of two faces on a blackboard and they apparently came to life. The two faces smiled and winked and the cigar-smoking man blew smoke in the lady's face. Also, a circus clown led a small dog to jump through a hoop. It actually uses cutout animation made to look like chalk outlines.
