2. TYPES OF ANIMATION:
3D computer animation
Traditional animation
2D Vector-based animation
Stop motion
Motion graphics
3. 3-D ANIMATON:
•3D, also referred to as CGI (computer generated imagery), is the
most popular type of animation for feature films currently, and it's
become common in TV and short films as well.
• 3D animation is a technically intensive process, which often
involves many separate specialists to model the character, rig it
with bones and controls, animate it, and then texture and light it
for the final output.
• For ex: Blender. Is a software used for 3D animation.
4. TRADITIONAL ANIMATION:
• So hand-drawn animation could be done entirely analog or
entirely digitally, or some mix of the two. The important thing is
that hand drawn animators still create their animation frame by
frame using the same techniques and principles as in those old
days of paper and cels.
For ex: Toon Boom Harmony is a software used for traditional
animation.
5. 2-D Animation
(Vector-based)
•Nowadays there are new
ways to create 2D animation
using a 2D digital puppets.
These are 2D characters
which are built with a system
of bones and controls that can
be manipulated in a way
similar to a 3D character rig.
•For ex: Adobe Animation cc
6. STOP MOTION ANIMATION:
Stop motion animation (also called stop frame animation)
is animation that is captured one frame at time, with physical
objects that are moved between frames. When you play back the
sequence of images rapidly, it creates the illusion of movement
For ex: Dragonframe. Is a software used for this animation.
7. Motion Graphics:
•The last big category of animation is motion graphics. Motion graphics focuses
on making dynamic and interesting presentations of moving text logos and
basic illustrations.
•
•Motion graphics can be both 2D and 3D, and you'll find them everywhere in
commercials, explainer videos, sporting events, the news and other TV
productions.
For ex: cinema 4D has been used for this animation.
