The counterpart to real film is the animation film , with its sub-genres such as cartoons or computer animation films . Real film differs from animated film in that processes, events and actions are initiated or staged in front of the camera in an image of the real or imagined world by photographically depicted real living beings.
The term real film is often used to differentiate between cartoon series and their feature film adaptations, e.g. B. Flintstones - The Flintstones, or 101 Dalmatians , used; also with mixed cinematic forms like Mary Poppins or Wrong Game with Roger Rabbit . Since the 1990s, there have been increasing examples of a mixture of the stylistic devices animation and real film; In other words, feature films in which (mostly computer-generated) animation sequences were incorporated, such as Matrix , Run Lola Run or Kill Bill . In semi-documentary films like Bowling for Columbine or American Splendor , animated sequences are increasingly being used as additional stylistic devices.
