ICT AssignmentAnimation is the central element of any cartoon or 3D animation. Animation over the years has only improved since, for example the first Toy Story movie was a major success in 3D animation, but it all followed the same principle as any other that does it by keyframing and it's like an optic. because it requires several still images one after the other, played quickly. Through the assessment, I will explain to you in detail what exactly animation is. Animation before Walt Disney was very old and yet still quite technical. For example, the phenakitstoscope is a set of two disks mounted on the same axis, the first circle containing slots around the edge and the second having images drawn in a concentric circle, how would this work by rotating the two circles together, if they were looked at through a mirror, the images should progress successfully one after the other as if it were a moving image. The success of the phenakitstoscope was short-lived after 2 years as a man named William George Horner invented the zoetrope which had two improvements, one being that it no longer required a mirror and two being more than a person could see. . Another similar invention, known as the kinetoscope, was similar to the phenakitstoscope in that it still allowed people to see moving images. Although the invention was not a success, it inspired other inventors and was considered a milestone in cinema history. Walt Disney's animation was the first to begin with the first animations such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The Gallopin' Gaucho, Plane Crazy. During this first stage of animation, these animations were silent and had no sound. This eventually changed as animation...... middle of paper ...... got better and better, with more films featuring to come out with mixed CGI. , it seems we'll only see more, with Walt Disney and Pixar films only getting better with each passing year. And yet, adding many films today, you may not even realize that 3D animation was done in the film and it will all only seem real to you. Concluding all of this in the future I only see improvement as a technology itself. is improving. Things such as virtual worlds will come into place soon enough, where the person themselves will be able to control a 3D object by wearing a possible device, the Nintendo Wii being an example. /wiki/Kinetoscopeen.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Walt_Disney_Companyen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walt_Disney_Animation_Studiosen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astro_Boyen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Story
