How do cartoons move?

Principle of animation: Animation is to decompose the expressions, movements and changes of characters into many action moments, and then shoot a series of pictures continuously with a camera to produce a continuous visual picture. Its basic principle, like film and television, is the principle of visual persistence.

Medicine has proved that human beings have the characteristic of "visual persistence". After seeing a painting or an object, people's eyes will not disappear within 0.34 seconds. Using this principle, playing before the next painting disappears will give people a smooth visual change effect.

FLASH animation has the following characteristics:

1. From the characteristics of FLASH software itself, it has many advantages and originality in animation production than other software.

Using streaming media technology, you can enjoy animation as long as you download a part, and you can transmit data while playing. FLASH has many important animation features, which can achieve better animation effects. The human-computer interaction of FLASH allows viewers to control animation by clicking buttons and selecting menus. Finally, you can create FLASH movies and output animations to many different file formats for easy playback.

2. From the point of animation production process and cycle, FLASH animation has some simplification and more reduction than traditional animation, and the production cycle is greatly shortened. Although traditional animation has a complete production system to ensure its production, it still has insurmountable shortcomings.

A 10 minute ordinary cartoon needs to draw thousands of pictures. Like the well-known "Make a scene in Heaven", 120 minutes long, you need to draw more than 65,438+10,000 pictures. Such a heavy and complicated drawing task requires dozens of animators and takes more than three years to finally complete.

3. In terms of production cycle, an hour-and-a-half program can be completed in about 3-4 months if it is produced by FLASH technology, and it usually takes 10- 14 months if it is produced by other technologies.
