Amazing tips for Animation & First Animation video in the year(1906)

Hi friends we would have come across  the word animation, but still many of us confuse between the words ANIMATION and GRAPHICS. In order to clear your confusion i have started this site.

What is animation?
       Animation is the continuous display of many pictures or photograph which are taken at different instant. But they should be taken in a sequence order so as to play it in a order.This effect of displaying animation is known as illusion effect, because they are not real. So it makes us easier to play an animated video with a sequence of photographs taken.
   In olden days they were no photographs, not even camera's. In that condition also they created animation by drawing a sequence of images and played in that same order so that you can get a illusion video(as if a man is walking or talking or anything else.

       Today I have planned to show you the first animated video and few descriptions what how they have created the video.This video was the advanced version of animation in the 19th century. 

          They called this video as a film and its name  was Humorous Phases of Funny Faces (1906) by J. Stuart Blackton. It features what appears to be a cartoonist drawing faces on a chalkboard, and the faces apparently coming to life; whereas it was actually black line art drawn on white paper and then printed as a film-negative to look like white chalk.  
This video shows that how animations were done those days. Rather than these there are many techniques for animations. In olden days animations were created with different technique which are as follows:
The magic lantern
Zoetrope (180 AD; 1834)
Thaumatrope (1824)
Phenakistoscope (1831)
Flip book (1868)
Praxinoscope (1877)

RECENT ANIMATION TECHNIQUES:
Since the olden animation techniques had lots of art work to do we jumped to the new animation technique such has CGI technique, Cel Shaded animation but now recently we are not adopting it because these technique should have skilled worker so at present we are using  Stop Motion technique.

STOP MOTION TECHNIQUE:
This technique is a very simple technique we all know, this is not possible for human animated video, it can be just applied to any ojects rather than human. Consider a ball 
first take a photograph of the ball at its static position and then ball is bounced and then it is taken photograph again. Using photo shop when the two photograph are played in the normal speed it looks as if it is moving by itself. 
Here is small example pictures how stop motion animated pictures are created. 

These images show the stop motion technique of animation. All the pictures above shows different style with constant time . But all those different styles are different images. Those different images are run at slow speed in order to get these shapes. In my next post i am uploading the top animated pics in stop motion technique.
