|
|
|
|
Animation is the process of playing several still images in quick sucession to
|
|
create the appearance of motion.
|
|
|
|
== aproaches ==
|
|
|
|
* keyframing
|
|
* data-driven
|
|
* procedural
|
|
* simulation
|
|
|
|
== perception of motion ==
|
|
|
|
Humans can only process about 12 images per second. If an image moves faster
|
|
than this, the illusion of continous motion is created.
|
|
|
|
== principles of animation ==
|
|
|
|
1) squash/stretch
|
|
* helps feel object feel fluid by applying a change to its shape as it moves
|
|
* applies to both 3d and 2d animation
|
|
2) anticipation
|
|
* characters take a moments to get ready to follow through with an action
|
|
* give time for viewer to understand what is happening
|
|
* IE smile before laughing, reach into pocket before pulling out wallet
|
|
3) staging
|
|
4) straight ahead action and post to pose
|
|
5) follow through and overlapping action
|
|
6) slow in and slow out
|
|
* things take time to speed up and slow down
|
|
7) arc
|
|
8) secondary action
|
|
9) timing
|
|
* relates to speed of animation events (key frames)
|
|
10) exaggeration
|
|
11) solid drawing
|
|
12) appeal
