Evidence of artistic interest in depicting figures in motion was seen as early as the still drawings of Paleolithic cave paintings, where animals are depicted with multiple sets of legs in superimposed positions, showing the attempt to convey the perception of motion.
First short film in the late 1800s was Charles-Emile Reynaud who created an experimental animation system called praxinoscope and began screening shorts in 1892. J. Stuart Blackton's Humorous Phases of Funny Faces (1906) was the first animation on standard film.
Feature Length (1917) by Quirino Cristiani was the first animated feature length film. It used cardboard cut outs in the style of political cartoons. Walt Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) was the first cel-animated ("traditional animation") feature length film.
