What is domestic animation

Domestic animation, generally refers to Chinese animated films

In 1926, the first Chinese animated film "The Great Trouble in the Drawing Room" was produced, which opened a page in the history of Chinese animation. Until the 1940s, the Wan brothers created the first Chinese animation feature film "Princess Iron Fan", which was distributed to Southeast Asia and Japan, and was warmly welcomed by the people, making a good preparation for Chinese animation to go international. In 1957, Te Wei, director of Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio, put forward the slogan of "exploring the road of national style", which started the construction of national style of Chinese animation. Looking at the development of Chinese animation in these decades, we can see that Chinese animation has always been committed to a road of national characteristics, and has not given up this purpose in the tide of the world's animation after the reform and opening up.

After the founding of New China, Chinese animation began its broader development. As early as 1947, the People's Artist Chen Bo'er and Japanese animation expert Fang Ming (holding the eternal only benevolent) created the new China's first puppet film "Emperor's Dream" and the animated film "catching turtles in a jar". They completed the filming work under the difficult conditions of insufficient personnel and poor equipment, which opened the prelude to the development of animated films in New China.

3, Japan's animation has a clear classification system, and by the Yinglun and other organizations to review; China's animation is basically no classification review system, generally by the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television is responsible for the review, due to the production of animation is mostly for the younger category, so China's animation as long as the production of the more age of the more likely to be passed. Japanese animation tends to be all-ages, unlike China, which is only allowed for children, so the viewing range is larger.
