A Blue-Print on Animation


Introduction:Believe it or not.Animation is a part of your life.Everything you look around you is animated from low budget cartoons to high budget films,advertisements.One of the obvious advantage to moviemakers is the ability to perform such stunts and activities that would have been impossible in real life.It is quite easy really.By rapid-playing frames they  create a deceptive illusion to our mental mind that precieves them to be the truth.Let me give you a quick overview on animation.

Types Of Animation:
The world of animation can be sliced up into two major categories:

2D Animation:You are fammiliar with this type.It is known as 2-Dimensional animation  created using simple vector graphics software theese animations are seeable from only 2 possible directions.When seeing such objects we happen to  feel like the image is stuck on the page.Another easy way to spot a 2D image is to do this simple exercise.For this exercise you must have a 3d image alongside with you.First look at the 3d object and notice how your  eyes converge and diverge to see near and far detail respectively but when you look at the 2d image nothing happens your eyes neither converge or diverge which proves that the image is 2-D

3D animation:A bit more advanced form of animation  that applies the uses of Autodesk 3ds Max and other related software.It takes a whole team of  animators and modelling artists to do this
Animating without computers:Do you remember those 15 minute pappaya the sailor man,tom and jerry  shows.You dont.Of course not.That was about a century ago.Ask your grand-parents the will tell you.Anyway  those technology driven people did  animate by the following ways

1.Flipbook.
2.Oil pastels and glass
3.Sand animation
4.Hydrotecnics
5.Draw-ON-Film 

Though they were not those super-dooper graphics like you see in transformer they still were not bad for that era
