Cartoons shaping childhood

By Hearts and Minds Media 2017

J Horsfield

Children like to watch television. Dora, Diego, Wonder Pets, Disney cartoons and more. Parents often think that all animated television shows are created equal, well they are not. Just because there is a cartoon on the tv, it does not mean that the message within the show is one meant for children. Take Family Guy for instance. Although it may be a very entertaining show for adults, it is not one that I would want my children to be watching. But even within the realm of children's animated shows, they are not made with the same intent and purpose behind them. I like to limit the amount of television that I allow my children to watch, what they do view I want to be educational.

Cartoons Through The Ages By Madhura Sansare

Cartoons have existed since forever, and have always been a major part of our childhoods. Madhura Sansare goes through the pages of history to bring you the crux of cartooning, and how its evolution represents our evolution as a society at large

If you’re a 90’s kid, we’re sure you keep talking about how the cartoons of today are so different from the cartoons of your childhood, and how they used to be so much better. We have a strong suspicion every generation secretly feels the same thing; the 90’s kids just have a louder voice on the situation because of the rise of social media. Cartoons have most definitely gone through their own form of evolution. Just like the human race, our art forms have also evolved along with us. Art forms like fashion, design, fine art, graffiti, can all be denoted as representations of society in their own eras. Cartoons are no different. In a time where cartooning is slowly being considered a lost art, we delve into the depths of history, and base a timeline on what cartoons used to be, and what they have become. So come along and take a ride with us through the evolution of cartoons, and cartooning as an art form. It just takes a look at the past century to reveal the evolution of our cultural consciousness. The masses’ attitudes regarding sex, violence, and even each other have gone through a tremendous change, and our cartoons have documented all of it. From being a people divided by cultural norms and fragmented categories like race, gender and sexuality, we have finally reached a place of oneness. Well, almost. And the only way to precisely understand this change is to go through cartoon history decade by decade. But before we do that, we need to define cartoons for what they are. A cartoon can be described as a form of two-dimensional illustrated visual art. But this definition has changed over time. Currently represented as non-realistic or semirealistic drawings or paintings intended for satire, caricature or humour, cartoons are now meant for so much more than just entertainment. Today, they can be used to have a voice, a voice that is sometimes so controversial and offensive to a certain sect of people that a Charlie Hebdo situation can occur because of it. But before we get into the intricacies of cartoons today, let’s take a step back into history’s proclamations of this art form. Let us start off with the cartoons with the 1920s, the decade of the revolution. One of the most popular cartoons of the era was the happy-go-lucky cat, Felix. Created in the Roaring Twenties, the time period between World War 1 and the Great Depression that gave rise to jazz and Prohibition, the surrealistic Felix The Cat series played before the silent motion pictures in movie theatres. He was a big favourite for dealing with the prevalent

issues of the day, like prohibition and alcoholism while also drawing open the curtain on the established ethnic stereotypes. It was during the silent era of the 1920 that Charles Mintz, Walt Disney’s cartoon distributor asked him to create a cartoon that would rival Felix. All of this was before the birth of the legendary Mickey Mouse. Disney first came up with a mischievous black and white character called Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, who was known for his straight, long ears. Disney and his artist employee Ubbe Iwerks made 26 Oswald the Lucky Rabbit cartoons till 1927, before realising that Disney’s distributor, Mintz had stolen the character from him by copyrighting it under Mintz’s name. Heartbroken and on his way back from California with this sad news, Disney came up with a black and white mouse character with big round ears and a long skinny tail. Though Disney had first named this character Mortimer Mouse, he changed it to Mickey Mouse on the suggestion of his wife, Lillian.

Mickey Mouse premiered in Steamboat Willie, the world’s first sound cartoon, at the Colony Theatre in New York on November 18, 1928. The seven minute long film received rave reviews, with the audiences adoring Mickey Mouse and his girlfriend Minnie Mouse, who also made her first appearance in the short film. It is for this reason that November 18, 1928 is considered Mickey Mouse’s official birthday. Moving on to the 1930s, January 13th first saw a Mickey Mouse comic strip appear in nationwide newspapers. Other cartoons like Popeye were portrayed much differently than the

incarnations we are used to as well. Due to the frustration that came along with the Great Depression, the 1930s Popeye was rougher around the edges, more likened to a cursing sailor who threw punches at people, animals and objects for no reason. The 1940s were all about America’s entry into the World War 2. This led to the birth of more patriotically costumed superheroes like Wonder Woman and Captain America, who were both created in 1941. The 1940s were majorly significant because of Wonder Woman, who was one of the first female superheroes in the country. This was massively due to the fact that women were continuing to expand their roles in the workplace, and also because World War 2 was the first conflict in which women served in the military. As gender inequalities were finally being addressed by the cartoons of the time,racial inequalities were bought to the white audiences’ attention by cartoonists like Dr. Seuss. Though there was an attempt by a few cartoonists to eradicate racial inequalities, some cartoons tended to the opposite demographic. Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarfs by Censored Eleven is one of the major examples of the racist cartoons of this age. The 1950s saw a radical change not just in the cartoons of the time, but also society at large. Following the soldiers’ return from the war in 1945, a redefining of gender roles took place. All the hard work of the 1940s was diminished as the 1950s cartoons started showing gender disparity and a return to women being showcased as accessories to men once again.

But the downfall of the 1950s was temporary. Come 1960s, the Flintstones came to our screens, and they were very responsible for a radical change. The Flintstones was actually the first cartoon ever to show members of the opposite sex sleeping in the same bed. The 1960’s also saw the Jetsons, who were way ahead in their time by pointing to environmental pollution, but had the family dynamics of a 1960s family. Scooby Doo also entered the cartoon scene by 1969, created by Hanna-Barbera as a peaceful alternative to the violent cartoons that were being protested against by the parents. We have come a long way from then, with the 1970s showcasing the effects of the Civil Rights Movement by being a mixed race group that showcased overt sexuality to the wide variety of cartoons available in the 1980s; trigger-happy cartoons like G.I Joe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and feel-good, communityfocused cartoons like the Smurfs, Muppet Babies and Strawberry Shortcake coming

together in the same decade. Since the 1980’s, cartoons have changed drastically, but they are still representative of a society’s trials and tribulations in some way or another. Political cartoons and comic strips have existed through the ages, but even our everyday cartoons have a lot to say about who were are as a society, and where we stand. The evolution of cartoons has been a magnificent one, and while we’re proud of it, we are just as proud of what this evolution represents, which is the evolution of the human society. Of Careers And Cartoons

Being a freelance cartoonist for almost 15 years now, Balraj KN has contributed cartoons to major publications like The Times Of India, Bangalore Mirror, Midday and Deccan Herald among many others. He tells us more about what it takes to be a cartoonist today WHAT AREAS DO YOU TEND TO FOCUS ON, THAT MAKE YOUR CARTOONS AND COMIC STRIPS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER CARTOONISTS OUT THERE? The cartoons I create can get uniquely visual as well as verbal. My interest in exploring visual variety in communication often tends to move away from using just human figures and a punch line. The advantage is that they stand out from the rest, but also at times tend to get cerebral, in effect reducing the wideness of my

audience.

WHAT ARE THE PROBLEMS WITH INDIAN CARTOONING THAT HAMPER ITS QUALITY AND DEVELOPMENT? Cartooning as a term includes many practitioners in India, like editorial cartoonists, comic illustrators and graphic novelists. As an illustrator, there are multiple other applications to cater across industries for an individual. Cartooning is like the pickle and not the main course on the menu. People need cartoons once in a while to spice things up. Hence there is a lack in the encouragement or eagerness of aspirants in pursuing a career in cartooning. An average young Indian who looks for security in his future career is averse to the risk and struggle of such an offbeat path. Societal perception of a ‘struggling artist’ too does a great disservice to the profession. Only those with a fire in their belly, who are brave enough to choose the line and fight against all the odds, tend to pursue it as a full-time career.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANY IMPACT OF CARTOONING? DO YOU THINK CARTOONS CAN BRING ANY SOCIAL CHANGE? We need cartoons like we need music in our lives. Not listening to music for a day or two will not kill us but you can never imagine a world without music; it is absolutely essential. Cartoons can entertain, tickle, educate, inform, pique

your brain, make you think, change your mind, affirm your belief or simply help you make your point. Cartoons have always had a social impact often in unknowing ways, just like music. If you think Asim Trivedi getting arrested on sedition charges for his cartoons is social change, I would say that cartooning making it to the front page, just like our sportsmen’s Olympic win makes it the front page. WHAT’S THE FUTURE OF INDIAN CARTOONING; WILL THE UPCOMING TRENDS LIKE ELECTRONIC MEDIA INFLUENCE IT? Internet and social media is where cartooning is seeing its rebirth in full glory. As internet penetration increases in the coming years, cartoonists will be connected with a wider audience that was once achieved by newspapers, print publications and books. Facebook, Twitter and other social networks also help cartoonists get a live interaction with their audiences. Journalism Through Cartoons Recently featured as one of the top 24 India-based intellectuals by Forbes India, Satish Acharya has definitely taken strides in his career as a cartoonist. We talk to this MBA-turned cartoonist about the role of cartoons in journalism WHAT COMPELLED YOU TO CARTOONING WHEN YOU STARTED OUT? WHICH WERE THE COMICS THAT YOU READ AS A KID AND WHICH WERE YOUR FAVOURITES? It began with Amar Chitra Katha. As a school-going kid the illustrated story books of Amar Chitra Katha attracted me. I felt the power of illustrations to tell a story is amazing. Later the cartoons of Laxman, Mario that used to appear in The Illustrated Weekly of India fascinated me and helped me take keen interest in cartoons. Though I hardly understood the message/opinion in those cartoons then, it was clear that I wanted to draw cartoons because it gave me happy moments.

YOU WERE FEATURED AS ONE OF THE TOP 24 INDIA BASED INTELLECTUALS NAMED BY FORBES INDIA IN DECEMBER 2015. COULD YOU TELL US A LITTLE MORE OF HOW THIS CAME TO BE? To be frank, I’m not sure how I landed up in that list. I have just been drawing cartoons and trying to reach as many people as possible. And social media has been a great help as a platform in this process. I guess, during the Anna’s anti-corruption movement and the General Elections (where corruption was a decisive issue) my cartoons travelled a lot and reached Indians abroad as well. That reach formed the basis for Forbes pick, I presume. WHAT AREAS DO YOU TEND TO FOCUS ON, THAT MAKE YOUR CARTOONS AND COMIC STRIPS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER CARTOONISTS OUT THERE? My focus is always on doing justice to the space that my cartoon occupies and doing justice to the time a reader spends on my cartoon. Also for me as a cartoonist, being unbiased is the primary goal. I try to be as unbiased as possible. ‘Without fear or favour’ is my mantra. Also, since I contribute most of my cartoons to news portals, I can comment on any trending topic more quickly through a cartoon. And I’m also passionate about cricket and cinema, so that helps me widen my cartooning area.

WHAT ARE THE PROBLEMS WITH INDIAN CARTOONING THAT HAMPER ITS QUALITY AND DEVELOPMENT? Editorial cartoonists work with tremendous job insecurity. There are chances that one of your cartoons doesn’t go well with the ideology of the paper or editor. On the

chance that the publication suddenly decides to cut cost, cartoonists are always the sacrificial lambs. Media houses should consider editorial cartoons as a serious part of journalism. The cartoonist’s opinion might differ from editor’s opinion, but he’s also a journalist and his opinion should be respected. They should put in more sincere efforts to identify, groom and safeguard cartoonists. There’s hardly any award for cartoonists organised by any media house. That’s sad.

Media and Violence: An Analysis of Current Research A Common Sense Media Research Brief WINTER 2013 Excerpt Television content. The most recent studies indicate that 8- to 18-year-olds in this country watch an average of four hours of TV programming per day, more time than is spent with any other type of media (KFF, 2010). The most comprehensive content analysis of TV violence – the National Television Violence Study – was conducted in the mid-1990s (Smith, Wilson, Kunkel, Linz, Potter, Colvin, & Donnerstein, 1998). It coded more than 10,000 hours of programming across 23 channels, including cable and broadcast networks, PBS, and daytime as well as primetime programming. This study counted as violence any act or threat of physical force intended to cause physical harm. The key findings were: • 60% of all shows included violence, ranging from 84% of premium cable shows to 51% of shows on the broadcast networks. • Shows with violence averaged about 6 violent acts per hour. More than half of the violent shows contained lethal acts, and one in four of the programs with violence depicted gun use (Kunkel, 2007). • Fewer than 5% of shows with violence featured an antiviolence theme or pro-social message emphasizing alternatives to or consequences of violence. • Researchers concluded that child viewers will see an average of nearly two gun-related violent incidents for every hour that they watch television (Smith, Boyson, Pieper, & Wilson, 2001).

Is there still morality to be found in modern cartoons?

Absolutely. Most cartoons I see these days deliver clear messages about accepting others despite differences, supporting friends and family, telling the truth, admitting when you're wrong, and standing up and saying something when you see injustice. Sometimes they do involve violence, but the main character is usually the type who fights to protect the weak. Considering how the generation before me revolved around things like a coyote getting the crap beaten out of him every five minutes, I'd say cartoons are actually becoming increasingly oriented around teaching moral lessons. Posted by: Pazu Feature film cartoons, generally, have some sort of moral lesson in them. Many animated movies seem to have an underlying lesson. The lesson may be that it is acceptable to be different from the crowd, or that even bad people can change their ways and be good. Some cartoons depict the main character as surly and unlikeable. As the movie progresses, he learns to make friends, and to be a friend. In most of these cartoons, there is some sort of battle between "good" and "evil". Thankfully, "good" always wins in the end. That is definitely the right message to send. Posted by: VenomousAllen90 Today's cartoons are loaded with moralistic messages, and their importance should not be downplayed. There is much morality to be found in works of artistic expression. Indeed, this is one of the main purposes of art as a whole: to describe to future generations what we valued as a culture. Childhood cartoons are not immune to this, as the artists that create them are products of our larger culture, and are therefore passing the moralistic messages they see onto the consumers of their art. Posted by: C0n5tGet Yes, because some cartoons still contain positive moral scenarios. Most modern cartoons have protagonists that fight against "evil", especially in anime and other "action" cartoons. Many characters fight for the people of their region or homeland. When an evil force, typically a villain with an advanced degree, is suppressing the protagonist, the hero of the cartoon will fight him. Posted by: BigLacy No there is not morality still found in modern cartoons. Modern cartoons no longer hold any moral stories or morality that teaches kids the affects that something might have on one another. Shows such as looney toons, tweety bird, marvin the martian, wiley coyote, they all taught you valuable life lessons about not giving up on your dreams and not letting someone push you down. 90% of modern cartoons have no morals Most modern cartoons center about fart jokes and other toilet humor or about violence. Also they chose the wrong characters as the main characters. For instance Regular show has two main characters that back stab their friends all the time and refuse to do their job, since they are lazy slackers. That show teaches the following things:

1. Having a job is a waste of time 2. Rely on others t do your job 3. Use and lie to your friends to get what you want 4. You can do everything an you still won't get fired 5. Mentally challenged people with brain tumors (Mr. Pops) are the best home entertainment I know that this show has a TV PG rating, but the majority of it's viewers are kids. If you want morals for your kids, you shouldn't let them watch shows from Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon. Disney cartoons (the few they have) are a step forward and in my opinion and My Little pony: Friendship is magic is the best cartoon when it comes to morals... I don't think so... At some point. Modern cartoons nowadays influences kids to act immoral and psychologically violent.. like some kids that I always encounter in our streets. even if they are kids there are times when they talk rudely. Just like in funny cartoons.. Posted by: ellenfrances There is very little to no morality in modern cartoons, because so many of them are based around violence. There is no morality in cartoons, nowadays. Cartoons, today, seem to be centered around violence, and the morality that these cartoons could contain is drowned out by the large amount of volume of violence. Cognitive dissonance doublethink Does no one see the cognitive dissonance embedded into practically every single cartoon? Take Steven universe, where the protagonist is caring and empathic at the same time following a do what thou wilt (disregard of parental authority) gender bender me first creed?!? What'sit gonna do to kids, when adults barely realize... Teaches our children bad morals supported by liberal media. All the cartoons are stupid and dumb your children's brains. They also have gay and same sex propaganda. Look at Frozen and how the song "Let it go" is like letting go of your fears and coming out of the closet to be happy. This all goes back to the liberal media and them trying to shove immoral values down the throats of your children. They try to teach them what is wrong is actually good and what is moral is actually bad. I'm so disgusted with this world and the evil behind the scenes! (http://www.debate.org)

Unique Cartoon characters (http://www.indiatimes.com)

1. Popeye He ate spinach and suddenly gathered the strength to deal with everything. But spinach was only a metaphor. We can flip our life at any moment and make ourselves bigger, better and stronger. 2. Scooby Doo Scooby always had friends around, but what made him special was the fact that he faced his biggest fears all alone. And that’s exactly what we needed to learn. Face your fears to overcome them. It's really easy when your friends have your back. 3. Richie Rich He was rich, but he used his money for all the right reasons. Humility and a calm attitude will take you places. 4. Jerry, the mouse He was super cute and always got his way out of trouble. Lesson learnt - There is no point getting intimidated by stronger rivals. Just be innovative and survival will be easy. 5. Johnny Bravo The poor boy got rejected by so many women, but his confidence always remained intact. Bravo taught us to keep trying, and trying harder every time. 6. Spongebob Mr. Squarepants taught us to look at the brighter side of things, even if no one else did. 7. Pokemon The series taught us to go beyond mediocrity and always strive to become the best.

8. Tweety Bird She was tiny, but she lived on the principle 'size didn't matter'. Tweety taught us the most relevant lesson today - how to think quickly on our feet. In this deadlineoriented world, this is one lesson we must never forget. 9. Nemo Life will let us down sometimes, but we've still got to swim and keep swimming. 10. Bugs Bunny Being scared of our flaws never helped anyone. Bugs Bunny taught us how to embrace them. 11. Winnie The Pooh Pooh was most adorable and there are just too many lessons to learn from him. The most important ones are about love and patience. A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference. And if the person you are talking to does not appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in this ear.
