Flubber



         Here is my favourite scene from the film flubber. it is my favourite due to the fact that the animation is so well planned and executed it makes an otherwise inanimate blob of goo look life like and full of character and emotion, the animator has done this by using various degrees of each principles of animation:

the most predominant being:
Squash and stretch
secondary action
follow through and overlap
anticipation
and exaggeration.

but most importantly is the impact that flubber made on the animation world, this can be proven by its box office statistics, it got 178 million dollars internationally but received a very low 23% approval from rotten tomatoes. this could be because it wasn't the film people wanted to see, it was the ground breaking use of cgi which to my knowledge is one of the first feature length films to use cgi which really changed the history of animation as people realised the things they could do with cgi!
