What Are Multimedia and Animation?

The animation is considered as a technique of presenting still photographs or drawing in a manner that gives the viewers an illusion of movement or a moving video. Animations are a hybridized version of multimedia texts, graphic art, sound, and video animation, which can be developed using a wide range of computer-based techniques.

In order to turn these sketched, painted, or computer-developed images into a smooth motion picture, the frame rate and the number of consecutive images displayed each second are acknowledged. In addition to entertaining kids and adults, Animation and Multimedia is also an essential tool for advertising and video marketing.

What Are the Different Types of Animation in Multimedia?

While several animators use multiple animation techniques to get the desired result, there are five distinct types of animation.

1. Stop Motion:

In the Stop motion technique, physical objects are manipulated and captured in small increments through individual frames. The top Photography agencies turn the real world articles into quality pictures and edit them so that while viewing these images in rapid progression, they give the illusion of movement. Stop motion animation technique includes claymation, puppets, cutouts, pixelation, action figures, object-motion, etc. Although a time-consuming and, at times, costly process, stop motion creates a unique and priceless look.

2. Traditional Animation:

Traditional animation is one of the oldest forms of turning images into a moving picture. The animators initially draw each frame, which is slightly different from the previous one, individually by hand on transparent celluloid papers. This is why traditional animation is also known as hand-drawn or cel-animation. Once the storyboard is complete, each drawing is photographed onto a distinct frame of the film reel so that when played sequentially, a moving picture is developed. This method is modified into Whiteboard animation, where the sketch artist physically illustrates the artwork on a board or paper using pens and markers.

3. Vector-Based Animation:

Vector animation attributes to multimedia images where vectors establish the art as opposed to pixels. It has a definite path of creation that allows distinct and smoother animation. Each image trajectory holds specific mathematical values, defining the course of the movie. The top 2D animation companies employ different vector-based animation tools such as Flash, capable of creating and editing vector graphics. 2D animations are comparatively easier to scale as well as take up limited space.

4. Motion Graphics:

Motion graphics involve dynamic and exciting representations of moving texts, logos, and graphics. However, the main focus of motion graphics lies in giving life to the story through visuals, shapes, etc., rather than character animation. It can be created in 2D as well as 3D, using distinct video editing software. Motion Graphics are generally utilized for title sequences in films, ads, etc. in order to communicate with the viewer. 

5. 3D Animation: 

3D animation is one of the most popular video animation techniques in today's industry. The top video animation companies employ CGI (computer-generated imagery), which is more related to puppetry than traditional or 2D animation. The animator digitally creates the characters and manipulates them to define their movement. The computer then interpolates the frames, which are then refined by the animator until they are satisfied with the result. 3D animation is a lengthy process since the software renders each frame individually, based on the quality of the images required.
