Understanding 2D Animation

What is the primary purpose of animation?

• To simplify complex data.

• To create the illusion of movement.

• To create static images.

• To enhance audio quality.

How many frames are traditionally required for one second of animation?

• 12 frames

• 30 frames

• 24 frames

• 60 frames

What does 2D animation limit in terms of movement?

• Movement is limited to three dimensions, including depth.

• 2D animation allows for full 360-degree movement.

• Movement is limited to two dimensions, lacking depth.

• Movement is restricted to static images only.

What is the difference between traditional and computer-generated 2D animation?

• Traditional 2D animation is hand-drawn, while computer-generated 2D animation is created using software.

• Traditional 2D animation uses 3D models, while computer-generated 2D animation is hand-drawn.

• Traditional 2D animation is faster to produce than computer-generated 2D animation.

• Both traditional and computer-generated 2D animation are created using physical materials.

Why is animation now generally done at 12 fps instead of 24 fps?

• 12 fps is used to match the frame rate of live-action films.

• Animation is done at 24 fps for better visual effects.

• Animation is always done at 30 fps for smoother motion.

• Animation is now generally done at 12 fps to save time and costs while maintaining acceptable visual quality.

Animation is ....

• A digital representation of non-text information.

• Any combination of text, graphic, animation, audio and video delivered to you by computer.

• A series of frames containing pictures and sound played back at a fast rate.

• A series of graphical images displayed one after another to simulate movement.
