Question

What was the first cartoon created using stop motion animation?

Answer 1

The first cartoon created using stop motion animation is generally considered to be "Gertie the Dinosaur," created by Winsor McCay in 1914. Although it is one of the earliest and most notable examples of animation, it was more of a combination of traditional and stop motion techniques. However, a pioneering work that is often recognized as the first stop motion animated cartoon is "The Sculptor's Nightmare," created in 1912 by J. Stuart Blackton. It featured the use of stop motion to animate a sculpted figure and is one of the earliest examples of this technique in animation.
