The Story of Fantasmagorie (1908)

Émile Cohl is the father of the animated cartoon. In 1907, Cohl was hired as a scenarist by Gaumont to generate one-page story ideas for movies.

Between February and May 1908, Cohl created Fantasmagorie," target="_blank" class="inline-link">http://en.wikipedia.org/wi... the first fully animated film. To create the animation, Cohl placed each drawing on an illuminated glass plate and traced the next drawing, reflecting the variations needed to show movement. The animation contained over 700 illustrations.

Weakening Strength

I’m weak and tired,
shaky and damaged.
Why does strength make me
weak?
Why every time I stand strong
do I shake and inside,
turn meek?
Strength rips off my flesh
and tears my insides
so the timid, helpless child
can no longer hide—
No longer hide
the tears, the screams
the slashing, the gashing,
the moaning the pain,
the ashes, the crashes,
the rain, no gain.
Strength grabs me, it stabs me
and sets me afire;
it slaps me, it snaps me,
running me down
to the mud and the mire.
I walk proudly
as strength kills me from the
inside out.
I scream and shout
but my pain reaches not one ear
while I fall and shake,
cry and break;
yelling for something to save
me,
for strength to stop raping me
and killing me
with every breath I take.

My personal goals in undertaking all this

My goals for the redesign:

• To facilitate a more engaging and seamless experience when it comes to exploring and staying connected
• To design a more personable and intuitive user interface
• To design through user empathy (HCD )
