The newspaper comic strip was where the animated sequences got their design from, that's where it all started, but the first animated sequence was made in 1906 called "Humorous Phases of Funny Faces". In this animated sequence, two faces were projected and their facial features changed as the animation went on. Other cartoons featured Felix the cat, although, the cartoon that got the most popularity was a cartoon that was developed by Disney. The cartoon was entitled "Steamboat Willie", which featured Mickey Mouse, and was released in 1928. More cartoons featuring Mickey Mouse were released in the following years, which also gained popularity.
