Forms of Animation
-
Traditional Animation: Also known as cell animation, involves hand-drawing every frame on a light table; companies like Disney famously utilize this method.
-
2D Animation: Vector-based animation that allows artists to create rigs for characters, enabling adjustment of body parts without redrawing. It's more accessible for beginners as it reduces dependency on drawing skills.
-
3D Animation: The most prevalent form today, focusing on moving characters within a program rather than traditional drawing. It requires understanding physics for realistic movements and involves creating keyframes for animation.
-
Motion Graphics: Focuses on moving graphic elements, shapes, and text, rather than characters. Commonly used for television promos, explainer videos, and animated logos, offering diverse career opportunities.
-
Stop Motion: Similar to traditional animation, involving a series of slightly different still images for movement but uses photography of real objects, effectively capturing actual movements.
