Animation report

Animation has been around for 100's of years from the magic lantern to 3d digital animations on computers. Animation has changed soo much in the last 400 + years and now that we are in the 20th century we have realistic looking illusions especially when using 3d glasses.

Animation years back was mainly zoetrope and the flip book but nowa days we have much better illusional ones we have many techniques these days and much easier ways, using computer software in professional ways to help us out to make a great animation such as rotoscoping cut out animation and other digital ones, star wars lightsabers as rotoscoping and also a cloning effect they use in "the island" which is also rotoscoping, south park cut out animation and things like family guy for digital drawing.

We will be soon to find more techniques to use which will end up getting more easy to use especially when we have computers by our side to help us design make and produce our animations maybe their will be a next step/leap from animation who knows we are soon to find out plenty more in the future.

Here are some pictures (catching up)

Today in class we were still doing our model animation project changing things around like the crowd background and upgrading it. later on that day after johns class i went to angies class and i was by myself because my group left for some odd reason. soo i go on with it and started taking picture by picture moving the clay models around which was hard word. later the lamps/lights were making the clay melt and hard to work with soo i had to wait a couple of minutes and wait till they were hard again.
