Wild takes

The term Wild Takes describes facial expressions in cartoon physics and its origins credited to artists of Warner Bros. Cartoons as it commonly appeared in Looney Tunes shorts; particularly in many of the Tex Avery shorts. Other American Animation studios soon followed suit. These techniques soon became common practices in many slap stick comedy based cartoons. These techniques are mirrored in face faults, which is used in anime.
