Etymology

The term 'animator' derives from the Latin word 'animare,' meaning 'to give life or spirit to.' The use of the word in relation to animation started to gain popularity in the early 20th century alongside the development of motion pictures. Historically, animation was a labor-intensive process, requiring thousands of frames to produce just a few minutes of film. Early pioneers, such as Walt Disney, revolutionized the field, allowing animators to perfect their craft and telling intricate stories through their art. With the rise of technology and computer-generated imagery in the late 20th century, the role of the animator has significantly evolved, incorporating both traditional artistry and modern technology.
