What is cell Animation?

Cell based animation generally has 25 frames per second. Somebody would draw each frame individually with slight differences. When cell based animation first started it was very time consuming to create even the shortest of animation. Now it has been made easier by computers, but the technology is expensive and only used by the industry.

the most famous Cell animation would be the work from Walt Disney
Steam Boat Willie

Today in Animation

In class today in a group we created two short pixilation animations. The second animation was a more improved version of the first one. I will up load these videos from vimeo in my next post.

Pixilation Animation

Pixilation animation is a series of photos of one or more objects moving around. Each photo has a small difference in movement with gives the illusion that the object is moving in an un-natural way.

Todays Lesson: Cut Out Animation

In todays lesson in my group of myself, Dan Charlton, Amy Fall and Emily Tatters. We have created our first cut out animation. We have used the cut outs we made in our last lesson. To create the animation we used the software "iStopMotion". It is the first version of our animation, we will add sound at a later date. I have published the animation on Vimeo as "Our First Cut Out Animation version 1.0" and will post in in my next blog post.
