Carl Stalling and Scott Bradley were influential composers for animated cartoons. They pioneered the "classic cartoon style" of tightly synchronizing brief musical cues to the animation. Stalling worked for Disney and Warner Bros, composing weekly for Looney Tunes. Bradley scored for MGM, particularly Tom and Jerry. Both employed musical quotations and precision timing to enhance cartoon gags. Their work defined the musical language of animated comedy.
