Cartoon Network Channel

In our today’s blog we will be discussing on a channel on television which wholly and solely runs on telecasting cartoon shows and animation programmes. Cartoon Network is an American satellite television channel owned by Time Warner. The speciality of this channel is its main focus is to entertain children’s by showing different animation programmes aiming the age group of 7 to 14 years mainly.

The channel aired its programme in India in four different languages namely Hindi, English, Tamil and Telegu. Since its inception in Indian market the channel has gained popularity through many interesting shows like Horrid Henry, Oggy and the Cockroaches, The Flintstones,The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Courage the Cowardly Dog are few names. To gain Indi audience the network has started focusing on number of animation shows like "Mighty Raju: Superhero School", "Sonic Boom Dhamaal Aur Dhoom", "Sholay Adventures".

With constant growth in the Indian market the channel has adapted new strategies to gain more likes in the Indian Market. It’s been said cartoon show watching doesn’t have any age barer. Although the channel has a targeted age group but everyone seems to enjoy animation programme irrespective of ages.

With the coming of this channel Indian animation industry got a huge boost. The flow of work increased as the channel required programme that would suit in Indian market so in variably the need of skilled animator increased. With its growing popularity channel also launched different animation games which also become very popular among kids.

With the evolution of 3D animation the channel made a smart move in producing excellent 3D animation programmes like ReBoot, Starwar Animated Series , Saladin etc to name a few. The visual appeal of 3D animation has hit the mind of Indian animation, but the charm and memory of 2d Animation is still there in the heart of the audience.

Use of Animation in Advertisement

The promotion of a product or service in the general public is advertisement.  It aims to increase the profit of a business or concern. A good advertisement holds the attention of the consumer for a specific product. That is why advertisements are made attractive to attract the notice of the customer.

The use of animation in advertisement is to make it more interesting and unique.  The other major advantage in using animation is that it’s completely limitless. If I want my character to grow taller than Eiffel Tower after taking a sip of a health drink, it’s only possible to do through animation. This is the beauty of creative tools and technology that we have. Moreover, animation helps to understand and explain the subject quicker and better than the real-time videos.

Thus animation in our advertisement makes it more entertaining eye catchy and indulges the consumer to get involved in the product. Somewhere it hits them at the back of their mind. People love to watch and remember the most entertaining videos. Recent studies shows that the funny promotional videos are the most shared content in social media and are most talked about too.

In the following link Vodafone tries to express their product in the best way using 3D animation:

This is the funniest ad of Castrol Power1 Racing two-wheeler oil promo. In this 2D animation video Castrol describes their product:

The following link is an animation ad film by Coca Cola. Through this video they try to beautifully show the love for their product even for the insects:

The reason why we are discussing advertisement media in our Maac Kolkata blog is to make our reader aware of the scope and reach of animation at different sector. It is no more limited to only film industry but its implementation has spread all across different media which make us feel if somebody is trying to make a career out of animation this is the right time and right market to hit. The animation industry in Kolkata as well as pan India is growing since its need and requirement for skilled professional are also growing over the years.
