Romanian animation refers to animation made in Romania or by Romanian animators. Romania's animation sector dates back to the 1920s and has been influenced by many historical periods in Romanian history, including World War II, the socialist period, and contemporary events. Romania's animation industry, which includes films, television series, and video games, has been part of Romanian culture for over a century and occasionally finds success outside of Romania as well.
As everywhere else in the world, Romanian animated film was born out of the development of journalistic graphics and its natural tendency to push boundaries through the animation of images. Most of Romania's first animated film creators came from the world of cartoonists, with journalistic graphics representing the first school where Romanian animators were trained.
Most were influenced by the aesthetic ideal of American and French studios, often "stealing the trade" after watching their productions at the cinema.
