Critical humor: From cartoons to cinematographic animations

Abstract

As the same written and visual expression of the critical humor of cartoons, fabulous animations emerged, which added movement and audio to film productions, and, due to the universal reach of cinema, has the potential to influence millions of people around the world, generating greater social impact. The animations that opted for the language of critical humor formatted a new style of the fable genre, which, unlike the conventional one, does not lead the essence of their narratives to a beautiful and fair world, in which the princess or the hero predominate. However, it directs the viewer to a reality in which the narrative is based on irony or mockery, and which does not necessarily present a resolution to all the conflicts in the story, however it guarantees reflection on the topic.
