About cartoon

            Here, I would tell something new about cartoon which is not included in my oral report because of time.
     As we all know, cartoon is for children in kindergarten and primary schools. However, this is  really old idea, cause everything is made for money. Cartoon making company still need money to make new works.So it need to fit the people, the teenages and adults,  who have money and could use it on the comic and its side productions. So this is my first point about my suggestion to the comic business--the customers. What is more,because  there is much presure among today's society so we need something to release our stress and cartoon is the best thing which can call back our childhood's memory to let our mind have rest. Besides this, it takes less time thanother relaxing activitiesso that we do not have to misss our work. So, we  can see what a big market it is , if we plus the number of stressful white-collars in the world.
     The next part I want to talk about is the writers. Of course they are trying their best to make the readers happier and earn more money. However , they ignore one problem , which is very important , is that they need to communicate with the ideas of chidren and what are they think about. The world is changing, so our knowledge is changing, especially the chidren, teenagers, and those youth.  They are  young so it is qiute easy and quick for them to get new ideas. So to be a good and welcoming writer, he need to add some elements which relate to today's word. Some people say that Chinese cartoons' failture is because they always want to teach the audients, but I do not think so. Why do writer write stories? It is because they wat pass thgeir ideas to us, which can let us know something new. For example, we can feel the love between father and son in"Find Nemo"(Disneyland, 2003).We can see the pollution of the river in "Spirit away"(Studio Ghibli 2001) and the appetite of man in"Castle in the Sky"(Studio Ghibli, 1986). So it is not a problem. The problem is that the idea should be compound ed with the story, which need the audients to notice it by themselves. It also a satisfactory thing if we can learn something new after we finish a film.
         Finally, in my opinion, Chiness companies should not have such a high speed to produce a cartoon. Whether a company can make money depends on if the work attracts customer. If you only make a lot  low quantity films and TV series, they will only waste your money and let the public lose interest in your cartoon. However , if you use a long time to make a good one, you will surely get your money back. What is more, you have get the fans' interest and they will support your next work. Besides this , you will also attract some investers' attention  who are likely to give you money and make the company bigger. There are many good examples, such as "Star Stealling Girl", "The Lotus Light","Qin's Moon",and so on.
         This is my summary about cartoon.I really like them and wish that there will more and more good works.

  5. In cartoon industry, China still has a long way to go, no matter in the plots or in the characters.Moreover,I think they should make good use of the precious Chinese culture,because China has such a long history.In fact, I haven't watched the cartoon "Qin's Moon" yet.It is because the early try of Chinese cartoon really disappointed me.Maybe I will have a try with "Qin's Moon"
