Animation Timing Chart Quiz

What is the main purpose of an animation timing chart?

• To add colors to animation

• To precisely time movements for a lifelike appearance

• To create background designs

• To adjust the lighting of a scene

What do in-between drawings do in an animation sequence?

• They mark the beginning and end of movements

• They help transition between key drawings for smooth animation

• They set the background elements in place

• They determine the color scheme of a scene

Which type of animation timing chart is used to indicate very small movement increments?

• Halves Timing Chart

• Thirds Timing Chart

• 1/4’s, 1/8’s, 1/16’s Timing Chart

• Favors Timing Chart

What role do "favors" play in animation timing charts?

• Speeds up the animation process

• Adds extra drawings randomly

• Placed in-betweens closer to the start or end of key poses for natural motion

• Removes unnecessary keyframes

What type of motion do animation timing charts help define?

• Organic and linear motion

• Static and rigid motion

• Random and blurry motion

• Only mechanical motion

Animation timing charts are only useful in 2D animation and have no relevance in 3D animation.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Timing charts help animators follow the principles of physics to create more natural movements.

• TRUE

• FALSE

. Lip syncing in animation does not require timing charts since it only involves mouth shapes.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Key drawings, also known as extremes, are the foundation of animation timing charts.

• TRUE

• FALSE

The fewer the in-between drawings in an animation, the smoother the movement.

• TRUE

• FALSE
