Do you simply not know what animation is or how it works? Or how a film works? You won't find "Hamlet" on any of the film frames either, because in this context, "Hamlet" is an animated character. It requires twenty four frames per second passing through a light source for the illusion of the character of "Hamlet" to appear on a screen.
The illusion doesn't appear on the screen. That it appears on the screen is the illusion. The illusion appears in the mind of the subject. As does the screen, itself an illusion, the illusion of a screen out there.
So, the screen is no less an illusion than Hamlet.
