ANIMATION Is the use of comp generated images to convey motion. The perception of motion in an animation is an illusion. Animation is a series of images viewed sequentially (one after the other). Each image depicts a position and when viewed in succession illustrates motion.
ANIMATION Animation is created by: �Creating a series of still images that can be shown rapidly creating a sense of motion.

ANIMATION Frame Animation � � Displays a series of images (frames) in rapid succession Threshold for the human eye to recognize flicker is 24 frames per second Vector Animation � � Animation is stored as a series of mathematical equations Macromedia has published the Flash
ANIMATION Morphing � � Transitions one shape into another Uses a series of frames to create a smooth movement http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=VGfi. R 9 M_pg. A http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=w. Zur. Rt 0 Tid. I
MORPHING EXAMPLE
2 D ANIMATION 2 types : Cel and Path Animation. Cel: based on the changes that occur from 1 frame to another frame to give the illusion of movement. �Cel from word celluloid ( transparent sheet material), used to draw image and place on stationary background. �http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=F 39 ys mhmb_w
2 D ANIMATION Path : moves an object along a predetermined path on the screen. �Path can be in straight line or it could include any number of curves. Object are not change, can be resized or reshape.
2 D ANIMATION �Use tweening technique, which object is set beginning position on 1 frame and end at another frame, the techniques will fill in the intervening frames. �http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=f. CYr. U XCa. Rdk
2 D ANIMATION Rendering is the final step in creating animation and involves defining the object attributes such as color, surface textures and degree of transparency. It can take considerable time, depending on the complexity of the animation. http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=w 4 u. Jp. Ha. HZTc
VIRTUAL REALITY Attempts to create an environment that surrounds the user so that she becomes part of the experience. The term use to describe various types of applications. Flight simulations, landscape, computer games and etc. http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=z. Zch. Uv 6 s. Ubo
INTERNET CONSIDERATION Consider the file size, downloading time of each frame. Usually animation is streamed/buffer (begin playing the initially downloaded frame while the rest are being downloaded).
