Question

Explain in detail Techniques of Animation.

Answer 1

• Animation is the process of displaying still images so quickly so that they give the impression of continuous movement.
• In animation, the screen object is a vector image in the animation. Using numerical transformations the movement of that image along its paths is calculated for their defining coordinates.
• The least frame rate of at least 16 frames per second gives the impression of smoothness and for natural-looking, it should be at least 25 frames per second.
• Animations may be two or three-dimensional, A two-dimensional animation, bring an image alive, that occurs on the flat X and Y-axis of the screen.
• While in three-dimensional animation it occurs along the three axis X, Y and Z. The two basic types of animations are Path animation and Frame animation.

1. Path Animation-
   Path animation involves moving an object on a screen that has a constant background.
2. Frame Animation-
   In frame animations, multiple objects are allowed to travel simultaneously and the background or the objects also changes.
