Which type of animation is created using a series of hand-drawn images?

• 3D Animation

• Stop Motion

• Traditional Animation

• 2D Animation

So what is 2D animation?

• Animation created using 3D models

• Animation that uses two-dimensional drawings or images to create movement

• Animation only created on paper

• Animation that does not involve characters

What is the key characteristic of 3D animation?

• Using toys or dolls or models in real-world environments

• Creating objects and characters in a 3D digital space

• Drawing images frame by frame

• Using only text and shapes for storytelling

Stop Motion Animation is created by:

• Drawing frames digitally

• Using computer software to animate 3D models

• Photographing objects frame by frame with slight movements

• Creating animation from pre-recorded videos

What is the standard frame rate for most animations?

• 12 frames per second

• 24 frames per second

• 48 frames per second

• 60 frames per second

Which principle of animation shows weight and flexibility by changing shapes?

• Staging

• Squash and Stretch

• Anticipation

• Timing

What is the purpose of "Anticipation" in animation?

• To make objects move naturally

• To show different parts of the body moving at different times

• To prepare the audience for an upcoming action

• To exaggerate a character's emotions

Which principle ensures that movements are smoother and more natural?

• Slow In and Slow Out

• Staging

• Exaggeration

• Follow Through

What is the focus of the "Staging" principle?

• Highlighting a specific part of a scene to guide the viewer’s attention

• Adding dramatic flair to character actions

• Ensuring all parts of an object move at the same time

• Making characters bounce realistically

What does "Exaggeration" do in animation?

• Slows down movements for clarity

• Prepares the audience for an action

• Makes movements or expressions more dramatic and noticeable

• Ensures all parts of an object move fluidly
