Computer Animation
What is Computer Animation?
Computer animation is the use of computer graphics to create animated images and videos. Animation is created by displaying a series of images, or frames, in rapid succession. Each frame is slightly different from the one before it, giving the illusion of motion when the frames are played back in quick succession.
Computer animation can be used for a variety of purposes, including entertainment, education, and advertising. It is a popular tool in the video game industry, used to create realistic or fantastical worlds and characters. It can also be used to create more abstract animations, such as those used in website design or scientific visualization.
Computer animation is the process of digitally creating moving images. The first step in learning computer animation is to create a storyboard, which is a series of images that will be animated in order to tell a story. Once the storyboard is complete, the next step is to create the actual animation. This can be done with a variety of software programs, such as Flash, Maya, and 3D Studio Max. The animation is then rendered, or created, using the computer software. Finally, the animation is edited and post-processed to create the final product.
