It is in a single key frame that basic animation is created. Animation is all about presenting various displays and movements that add life to a site or movie in which it has been used. Internet users are generally fond of surfing all through interesting looking websites and when there is animation element in them then they are even more delighted to browse through them. Without the information of basic animation techniques, a designer would not be able to make use of the rest of the techniques needed to be applied when working on animated characters and patterns. In the simplest of words, basic animation is all about illusion creation and working up with various movements and then linking them together into one formation so that the actions take place well in coordination. In general, the effects are created by making use of Java language. To understand this in a better way, take for instance, in order to show a ball bouncing, various positions need to be drawn. Starting it with the ball resting on the ground and then in the air on various levels would be needed to be done and then bringing them together to show the right effect. With Flash animation software improved effects can be infused to give the impression of complete action taking place. Here, three basic forms of animation have been discussed.

Cel type- This is all about the traditional method of animation and is a set of hand drawings made. In this procedure of animation, numerous pictures are created that are somewhat progressive in nature as it would then depict a few actions. In this procedure the drawings are made on transparent sheets, which is as well known as cel and it works as a medium for drawing frames.

Stop type- Here the procedure is to make objects move by their own capabilities. Hand drawn characters can not only be enhanced, but at the same time they could be made appear as real, and is better than the other mentioned type.

2 and 3D- Simple application of scanned drawings into computer such as in a cartoon film is one popular type but more than 2D it is 3D which offers better results at last.

Trends In The 3d model and Animation Industry

What you need to know about this term without getting intimidated is that the term simply refers to what was simply a matter of drawings that were designed to move simultaneously.

What you also need to know is that the concept is still the same today just that new methods have been invented to reproduce the results in better ways. The methods have changed but the result is the same. You also need to know that the methods of Phenadistoscope have been obsolete since the beginning of the 21st century. These methods gave way to the new methods that have been designed to achieve the same result in radically different ways.

You are right to guess what this new method is- the computer. The computer has revolutionized a lot of ways in which things get done these days. The major developments that came with the computer entail that the drawings can now be scanned and transferred into computer or better still created on the computer. The computer has the capability of the rendering the images that represent movement at a very fast rate.

These images are generated from the concepts of 2D or 3D model artwork. What happens after that is that the images will be then put in a particular order that the computer is then able to simulate what we can term as an illusion of movement. What has transformed the animation and graphic design landscape is the ability that has come with the computer to view the created objects or images from all angles. Modern applications are designed to generate typical drawings that that can even be styled as hand drawn images.

This is enabled by what is known as cel-shading. There are some advanced effects that you get with some of these applications and these can be used to achieve skin and facial expression effects and even ?cloth? effects. This normally goes with an effect called morph. What this means is that the images in the frames and the vertex will move to a different position. There are many techniques that are emerging and if you are keen to get hands-on with the developments you will do well to run researches and find out what is happening in the flourishing 3D animation industry.
