Animation

What is Animation?

Animation is the creation of images or objects. They are then manipulated to appear as moving images or objects by the use of computers.  There are basically two ways that animation can be used; in games and in film. Both are animation, but very different.

In Film

Movie Animators worry about what is in the view of the camera. This means that the animator is only concerned with what viewers can see at that time. The animator can cheat in many ways since people only focus on one side.

Animation in Games

Games are more interactive and the player has full control of the character. This means that they can rotate it and see all the sides. Meaning that the animation in games has to be perfect from all angles.

Video

We use the word video on a daily basis. But what really is video? Video is defined as an electronic method of recording, copying, playback and display of moving visual media.

Special Effects

Special effects are illusions or visual tricks that are used in animation, video games and films to create imagined events.  There are two groups of special effects, optical effects and mechanical effects.

Optical Effects

Also known as photographic effects, optical effects are methods in which images or film frames are created photographically. This can be done either in camera either using multiple exposure, mattes or the Schufftan process. It can also be done in post-session using an optical printer.  Basically, optical effects are used to place actors or sets in a different background.

Mechanical Effects

Mechanical effects are also known as practical or physical effects. They are usually used during live film shoots. Sometimes there is the use of mechanized props including the creation of rain, wind or hail. Mechanical effects are often incorporated into the set, design and makeup.
