Events in 1854 in animation.
Events
- March: The first official attempts at war photography were made by the British government at the start of the Crimean War. In March 1854, Gilbert Elliott was commissioned to photograph views of the Russian fortifications along the coast of the Baltic Sea.[1] Roger Fenton was the first official war photographer and the first to attempt a systematic coverage of war for the benefit of the public.[2][3]
- Specific date unknown: In London, the Welsh photographer John Dillwyn Llewelyn exhibited several early instantaneous photographs of the seaside. In 1855, he demonstrated these photographs at the Exposition Universelle in Paris. His works were well-received by critics, with detailed analysis of how well the waves were pictured. Llewelyn probably was an early adopter of the use of an automatic shutter, though the start date for this practice is uncertain.[4][5]
Births
November
- November 4: T. S. Sullivant, American cartoonist, (the anatomical accuracy of his work was greatly helped by Eadweard Muybridge's photographic studies of human and animal movement. It was the visuals and the action in his cartoons that were most often the "gag"—frequently the caption added little to the enjoyment of the cartoon. Sullivant had an enormous influence on the early history of American animation, second perhaps after Winsor McCay. He was especially influential in the Walt Disney Studios after T. Hee brought in a collection of Sullivant clippings to use as inspiration for the "Dance of the Hours" sequence in Fantasia. His influence is also apparent in the Walrus in Alice in Wonderland and the elephants in Dumbo), (d. 1926).[6]
Specific date unknown
- Mary Fenton, Anglo-Indian actress, (presented her own magic lantern show before receiving training in singing and acting during the 1870s), (d. 1896).[7][8]
