We all love animation movies, animation is one of the most fascinated things during our childhood and still it is. Because when we look into it, we know that the characters or things which you can see in such movies are not real. But "how is it happening"?
Let's start with the history of animation
Animation is a method in which figures are manipulated to appear as moving images. It has a history of more than Hundreds of years. before the introduction of true animation, people from all over the world enjoyed shows with moving figures that were created and manipulated manually.
the animation era has basically differed into two Traditional Animation and Modern animation
Traditional animation (also called cel animation or hand-drawn animation) was the process used for most animated films of the 20th century. traditional animation results in making 2D animation movies. 3D animation was not possible at that time.
The individual frames of a traditionally animated film are photographs of drawings, first drawn on paper. To create the illusion of movement, each drawing differs slightly from the one before it. all the frames get photographed one-by-one against a painted background by a camera onto motion picture film.
Today in modern animation techniques, we have different software to create animated characters we don't need to hand draw it. but still, the skill of creativity remains the same. Now, most animations are made with computer-generated imagery (CGI). Because of this, we have the ability detail our character in each and every manner. One of the best examples for that is the introduction of 3D animations.
