Drawn animation is where different drawings are put together one by one and put together in a moving film it takes a lot of time and dedication. Companies such as Disney use drawn animation their first was 'steamboat mickey'

Cut animation is the same only it's cut outs of different drawings placed in different places and taken photo's of for every shot so the sections of paper move and are animated.
