Animation (7)
I believe the answer is:
cartoon
'animation' is the definition.
(I know that animation can be written as cartoon)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for cartoon that I've seen before include "Witty drawing" , "Drawing, maybe satirical" , "Animated film made by photographing a series of drawings" , "Animated drawing" , "Humorous or satirical drawing" .)
