Taking this spot, is the very popular movie, Finding Nemo.

<br /></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-align: justify;">This movie changed the belief that fish are friends not food. At times, we are not out-rightly impressed with the stunt voice casting. Its not unusual to see celebrities showing up in animated flicks these days. They do their own voices and put the more talented, voice actors out of work. But in a very few films like this one, celebrity voices actually help shape the movie and storyline, while turning it into something wonderful and impressive. Finding Nemo takes you on an exciting journey with Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres, who will make you laugh all the way through what is eventually a serious story. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-align: justify;">Nemo is a little orange clown fish, the only kid of his father. And as we've seen in many other animated pictures on animal kingdom, it is a jungle out there (in this case, a vast ocean). This movie saw Pixar at its creative best as they created an underwater world so vast and beautiful that one really couldn't imagine how Marlin would ever find Nemo. But the treatment of the story and unfolding of the events is so well put that you will actually become a part of their journey.

<br />
<br />Some may despise us for listing such a recent movie in the <a href="http://www.odishaeye.com/Tej-Kohli-Foundation-Announces-Rural-Development-Initiative-in-Haryana-5246.html">Tej Kohli</a>'s list of best animation movies ever, but this countdown could go no further without mentioning it. How to Train Your Dragon is undoubtedly one of the best movies in the recent few years, animated or otherwise.
<br />
<br />DreamWorks has offered a slew of successful computer-animated films since Shrek and several others. But Dragon is an exception, as it is the first movie by Dreamworks that has a "Pixar feel." By this we intend to say that it worked on several levels, besides being just funny.
<br />
<br />The movie portrays the story of Hiccup, a weird kid trying to fit into the Viking society he was a part of. The movie benefits from some great humour, but also has some heart touching moments, especially where Hiccup bonds with Toothless, one of the Dragon's that are the long time enemies of his community. This movie depicts a beautiful emotional journey which leaves a lifetime impact on viewers.

<br />
<br />Read what makes The Lion King one of the Disney's best work even after 17 years, at <a href="http://govit.sys-con.com/node/1208421">Tej Kohli </a>blog.
<br />
<br />Lion King was one of the trendsetter movies in the Disney era. Released during the early 1990s, Lion King turned out to be a huge hit and became one of the highest revenue earning traditionally animated film ever released.
<br />
<br />Even 17 years later Simba, Scar and Mufasa are household names thanks to the enormous popularity of the sequels, songs and Broadway plays and everything that has been inspired by the movie. But who would have thought back in 1994 that all the characters would become some of the Disney's most popular creations.
<br />
<br />The movie showcases Simba's Journey to adulthood, retribution, and taking up his rightful place as the lion king. While, there is nothing new about the story, but the content has been delivered very effectively. While the movie was full of Disney's cliches like tragic origin, comic animal sidekicks, lessons in life, it works amazingly well, perhaps because the of the unique vibe given the proceedings by the artists' African landscapes and the fantastic music by composers Elton John and Tim Rice. Combining tried and true concepts with new and interesting angles - call it the Disney Circle of Life.

As a Parisian rat who refused to uphold the family tradition of eating garbage and moving around in filth. Remy is the epitome of what Pixar is good at, creating anxious, yet daring, oddball. Add in some bright colors, some kitchen accidents and an unusual friendship over a simmering flame and the world's greatest equalizer food, the outcome is a the beautiful story about finding one's place in the world of harsh realities.<br /><br />One tiny bite of this amazing feast and you'll be instantly transported back to your childhood; when things made sense and the world was still filled with wonder.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.pressbox.co.uk/detailed/Technology/Tej_Kohli_owned_Grafix_Visitor_Tracker_allows_Virtual_Casinos_Oversee_End_to_End_Site_Operations_556447.html">Tej Kohli</a> is an expert writer with a special focus on 2D and 3D animation!

Read its review as written by <a href="http://www.disabled-world.com/news/asia/india/corneal-transplants.php">Tej Kohli</a>.<br /><br />Sleeping beauty was last of the classic animated fairy tales produced by Walt Disney himself. Released in 1959, the film initially bombed at the box office, but over time came to be known as one of the finest and most beloved film of the Disney's golden era. This is the studio's most iconic work with jaunty creatures, a beautiful princess, an evil sorcerers and a handsome prince on a white steed.<br /><br />Full of vibrant colours, contemporary designs, and music based on the Tchaikovsky ballet, this film has nothing common in looks and sounds than any of the films that came earlier. The clean hand painted cells, which seems inspired by the medieval art offer a stylized look and a vibrant palette filled with bizarre combination of violet, green, ochre, indigo and fuchsia. The final climactic battle between Prince Phillip and Maleficent in the form of a gigantic dragon remains one of the most beautiful and thrilling sequences ever animated.<br /><br /><a href="http://pressreleaser.org/tej-kohli-foundation-organises-meal-and-health-check-up-for-destitute-children/1346597">Tej Kohli</a> animation career blog is the place to find latest articles and updates on the animation industry.

In this post <a href="http://pressreleaser.org/tej-kohli-foundation-organises-meal-and-health-check-up-for-destitute-children/1346597">Tej Kohli</a> talks about the 20th best animation movie My Neighbor Totoro!<br /></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;" align="JUSTIFY">My Neighbor Totoro is one of the earlier animation films by Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli and even 22 years later is still considered one of their best creations. </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;" align="JUSTIFY">The movie narrates the story of two sisters who move to the countryside in the post war Japan. There they come across a forest full of imaginative critters, and a large protective spirit named Totoro. As with most Miyazaki's movies, the film shows the journey of clash of childhood innocence and the beginning of adulthood and other other harsh realities associated to it. </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;" align="JUSTIFY">Totoro does justice to both these aspects with its bright, vibrant visuals and its denial to submit to the old storytelling methods that derail so many Hollywood animations. If you are a fan of Miyazaki's films or even animation in general, you cannot afford to give this movie a miss.<br /></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;" align="JUSTIFY"><a href="http://www.euroinvestor.co.uk/news/story.aspx?id=11642022&bw=20110308005844">Tej Kohli</a> is an animation expert and loves sharing information about animation movies.

Despite being set isin a very basic environment, the content and interplay between the characters is very inspiring, witty and entertaining. The characters, made of art and craft supplies, feel more alive than most live-action characters. And Anderson and Baumbach, operating outside of their usual wheelhouse governed by all-too-smart, upper-class people with upper-class problems, seem to bring out the best in each other here, giving the film many opportunities to be one of the most underrated films of 2009.<br /></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;" align="JUSTIFY"><a href="www.ozonerealestate.com/about_ozone/tej-Kohli-interview.php">Tej Kohli</a> animation career blog is a place to find useful and informative articles on 2d and 3d animation.

This helped kick off a massive, worldwide franchise including several sequences, a few TV series, video games, novels, toys and more. Directors of the sorts of James Cameron has praised it, the Wachowski brothers have confessed it as being a key influence on The Matrix and a Steven Spielberg produced live-action film which is currently under production.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 0in; ">The movie is basically a crime thriller set in the future, says <a href="http://www.pressbox.co.uk/detailed/Technology/Tej_Kohli_owned_Grafix_Visitor_Tracker_allows_Virtual_Casinos_Oversee_End_to_End_Site_Operations_556447.html">Tej Kohli</a>.

Agreed that it is Walt Disney's ultimate creation, piece de resistance and great stuff, but let's face it, it can also be kind of boring at times, cheesy at others and dated in the worst way here or there. Thanks to the unicorns (and not to forget the baby unicorns), says <a href="http://pressreleaser.org/tej-kohli-foundation-organises-meal-and-health-check-up-for-destitute-children/1346597">Tej Kohli</a>.<br /></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;">But, despite the flaws, there is still a lot of things to appreciate in the movie, even 70 years later since it was released. Some high points of the movie are sequences like the climactic 'night on bald mountain', featuring the awesome demon creature Chernabog. The movie is episodic, most non-narrative and is set out to various pieces of classical music. Even technically, the movie has got no parallels.

In this post <a href="http://pressreleaser.org/tej-kohli-foundation-organises-meal-and-health-check-up-for-destitute-children/1346597">Tej Kohli</a> has talked about a Batman movie, which changed the face of animation. The list will go on as more movies will be discussed in the upcoming posts, in an ascending order of popularity.<br /><br />Long before the batman begins hit the theaters, this animated flick was the Dark Knight's best big screen movie. And some still argue that it is the best movie ever made.<br /><br />Movie revolves around Bruce Wayne's past as Batman must stop a new rouge, Phantasm from killing Gotham's local mob population. The perpetrator and the crimes are related to Bruce's first and perhaps the last shot at true love, a relationship he was ready to leave the cowl for, it it meant a happy life.<br /><br />Tragedy follows batman like a shadow, and when you add Mark Hamill's Joker into the story, the end product is one of the most dramatically satisfying films DC has ever made. <a href="http://www.euroinvestor.co.uk/news/story.aspx?id=11642022&bw=20110308005844">Tej Kohli</a> says the Phantasm is a wonderful nemesis, and when he removes the mask the reveal is both astonishing and justified. The climax of the film is set at an abandoned Gotham World Fair ground is outrightly epic and extremely violent, thanks for joker challenging batman to the fight for his life. Every character evil or good is connected by an event in their past. The movie completely exploits the outcomes of that event, especially the impact it has on Bruce.<br /><br />With his films, Nolan nailed who the Dark Knight is.

Suppose your back is facing the sun, then your front will be shaded. Rendering or shading a 2D cartoon adds depth to it and makes it appear like a 3D drawing.<br /><br />To start drawing a 3D cartoon all you need is a drawing paper, a drawing pencil and few colored drawing pencils.<br /><br />1. As with any drawing, the first step in a 3D drawing is to decide what to draw. After picking up a object, example a stuffed toy, a tree or a car, make a line drawing of it. Start with a lighter hand first and do the necessary corrections if required. Then, darken the contours using a darker pencil like ebony.<br /><br />2. Second step , says <a href="http://govit.sys-con.com/node/1208421">Tej Kohli</a> is to decide what color the body of the object will be. Color the object in.<br /><br />3. Place the object in a lighted area and find the shadows. Draw the shadows with a darker shade of the original color you used to color your character's body and head. Render directional shadows using the side of your pencil. Darken an edges, lighten the shadow as it moves toward the light source. If you are using a soft lead pencil, smear with your fingers to make the shadows smoother.<br /><br />4. When drawing a human character, use a darker shade of the color used for his clothes and skin. On the other hand, if you are drawing an animal you would need only one original color.<br /><br />5. Create a portfolio of characters and scan them into your computer and print your comic characters.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.pressbox.co.uk/detailed/Technology/Tej_Kohli_owned_Grafix_Visitor_Tracker_allows_Virtual_Casinos_Oversee_End_to_End_Site_Operations_556447.html">Tej Kohli</a> animation career blog is a place where you will find all the possible information related to animation.

In this article <a href="http://www.marketwatch.com/story/grafix-softech-owner-tej-kohli-acquires-bingotv-2011-03-08">Tej Kohli </a>has discussed some useful tips to help animators format a script for an animated series. </div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">There is no difference between writing a script for animation and writing a live-action script. The format of both these scripts remain pretty much the same. To format a screenplay or script you can use various word processing programs such as word, but nowadays a variety of screenplay formatting programs are available that makes this process easier and seamless. There is a standard format for a screenplay or script that is accepted industry-wise. If you want to deliver a professional looking, quality and finished script, you would certainly need a properly formatted screenplay. </div><br /><div align="justify"><a href="http://www.euroinvestor.co.uk/news/story.aspx?id=11642022&bw=20110308005844">Tej Kohli</a> offers some handy tips for the writers and animators. </div><br /><div align="justify"><br />1. Write an outline : Figure out the duration of the episode or the animated movie you are making. Then start writing an outline that summarizes the primary high and low points in the plot. Then, develop story points to 'beats' that are central to the plot of the movie. Weave the story around these beats.<br /><br />2. Write about the characters : A common practice that a lot of screenplay writers do is to develop their characters by using a technique called back story. Back story gives a basic idea about the characters and helps a writer imagine how and why characters act and react. These stories helps the writers understand why a character reacts in a particular way. This helps the writer to take the story forward.<br /><br />3. Determine action sequences using outline: A characteristic difference between animation script and a live action script is in the use of action. An animated script is full of action since the animated characters can be put in rather perilous situations than live-action actors. While an action sequence is written very clearly and concisely, an animator uses the script as a blueprint to develop the action sequences.<br /><br />4. Write dialogues: Dialogues, like in live-action scripts, helps to take the story further. However, live action scripts can proceed slowly than animated ones as live actors can interpret their parts as they interpret their character. Whereas, an animation script moves faster as it is the essence of animation to keep things, characters and situations moving. As most animation characters talk in short, quick sentences, it is important that the dialogues are sharp, quick and snappy. Avoid writing long speeches.<br /><br />5. Rewrite : Once you have completed the first draft, leave it for a while. Then, with a fresh mid, review the script for movement, action and dialogue. If there is any action sequence which is not clear and concise, rewrite it. Cut the dialogues short if need be. And remember to correct typos, if any. </div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify"><a href="http://www.istockanalyst.com/business/news/4950457/grafix-softech-owner-tej-kohli-acquires-bingo-tv">Tej Kohli</a> is an entrepreneur and philanthropist located in San Jose, Costa Rica.

Read the complete guide below on <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/41963557/Grafix_Softech_Owner_Tej_Kohli_Acquires_Bingo_tv">Tej Kohli </a>Blog. </div><div align="justify">Creating 3D movie scenes with animated models is something that artists make with design software like Blender or Maya. These programs come equipped with functions for making 3D scene's models and generating series of animated images embracing those models. The first thing than an artist must create when making a 3D movie is its model and environment. This may involve exhaustive research and groundwork into prior related artwork. With proper research artists are able to create authentic models, for example the Titanic Ship model in the movie Titanic. Advantages of creating 3D scenes with models are many but most important is the personal satisfaction of creating a world out of your own imagination. </div><div align="justify"><br />1. To begin, open a 3D design & animation program on your computer. Then click the 'create' or 'draw' in the menu. This step starts a procedure that will bring out a 3D scene demonstrating a ball bouncing into a basket. It is a sample project which will introduce you to various concepts and procedures you can execute while making other animated scenes. </div><div align="justify"><br />2. Under the 'create' menu, click the 'box' item. Then click and drag in the 'perspective' viewport to create the box's base. Once the box fills the view-port's screen, release the mouse and slightly drag upwards to form the box's height. After this click to finish the box. You have created a ground model on which the ball will bounce. </div><div align="justify"><br />3. Start creating the ball by clicking on the 'sphere' item under the 'create' menu. Then click and drag anywhere atop the ground you created in the last step to create the ball. Release the mouse once the ball has reached its ideal size. </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"><a href="http://www.euroinvestor.co.uk/news/story.aspx?id=11642022&bw=20110308005844">Tej Kohli</a> has a keen interest in 3D animation, despite not taking it as a full time career. </div><div align="justify"><br />4. Click the 'create' menu's 'cylinder' item. Click and drag on the ground model an a position opposite to that of the ball. This action will ascertain the cylinder's base. To grow the cylinder's height, release the mouse and drag upwards. Click again to complete the cylinder. </div><div align="justify"><br />5. Next, select the 'animation' menu heading and then click the 'make keyframe' function under it. This action will generate a frame of the 3D movie. The software will automatically calculate the movie frames between your key-frames to complete the movie. </div><div align="justify"><br />6. Keep dragging the animation time slider at the bottom of your screen until it frame counter reads '50'. Movie's current frame advances with this action and enables artist to create a new keyframe. </div><div align="justify"><br />7. Select the ball and then click you 'Modify' menu's 'move' command. This command allows you to move 3D models. Then drag the ball in upward direction and little towards the cylinder. Then create another keyframe as instructed in step 5. </div><div align="justify"><br />8. Drag the animation time slider to frame 100, then move the ball back down to the ground, and slightly closer to the basket. Make another keyframe. </div><div align="justify"><br />9. Repeat this cycle of increasing the animation time slider by 50 frames, moving the ball toward the basket's top, then making a keyframe. Once the ball has reached the basket, continue to the next step. </div><div align="justify"><br />10. Click the "Animation" menu's "Preview" command to view the ball bouncing into the basket.<br /></div><div align="justify">11.

Instead, it is an outcome of the combined efforts of various innovators, artists and advancements in the field of technology.<br /><br /><strong>Advent of Computer Art</strong><br />"Computer graphics in the olden days were clunky and difficult to create", says <a href="http://govit.sys-con.com/node/1208421">Tej Kohli</a>. Users had to produce their computer art by inputting complicated mathematical equations and coordinates. It was after Ivan Sutherland's created the Sketchpad software in 1961 that caused computer graphics to take off. This program allowed users to use a light pen to actually draw images for a computer to replicate. His software became the inspiration for much of the computer graphics software we use today.<br /><br /><strong>Digitalization of the world</strong><br />Thomas knoll created Adobe Photoshop as a simple photo editing tool, but by the early nineties a lot of magazines advertising agencies and film studies started using Photoshop and Illustrator to produce their mass market images. This led to the growth of these softwares and paved way for 3d Animation says <a href="http://www.bi-me.com/main.php?c=3&cg=2&t=1&id=42243">Tej Kohli</a>.<br /><br /><strong>Disney Goes Digital</strong><br />Disney ruled the 2D animation industry until the late 10930s and was at its peak during the 1980s. During what was known as Disney renaissance, animators looked for new ways to make their movies different. They began to animate more detailed elements using 2D animation software.<br /><br /><strong>Full Digital Movies<br /></strong>Disney people searched for cost- and time- effective techniques to churn out more of their immensely lucrative films per year. A company called Graphics Group launched a computer system that allowed animators to automate the laborious ink and coloring parts of the process. With the release of "Pocahantas" in 1995, Disney became the first animation studio to use this computer process for a complete film.<br /><br /><strong>Pixar </strong><br />John Lasseter, an employee at the Graphics Group, created 3-D short animation films to help sell their products. These short films gained so much attention that Disney and the Graphics Group (renamed Pixar) teamed up to release "Toy Story" in 1995. The film was a success and proved to cost less and take less time than producing 2-D animated films. Pixar's subsequent film releases, and those of other animation studios, proved that 3-D would be the future of animation.<br /><br />To learn more about Animation keep reading <a href="http://www1.albawaba.com/business/abu-dhabi-realty-perturbed-dubai-world-crisis-facts-uae-economy-these-troubling-times">Tej Kohli</a> blog.</div>Tej Kohlihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02546150389678173430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941922936814048081.post-63507178041053738762011-01-05T21:57:00.000-08:002011-01-05T23:12:38.414-08:00Tej Kohli's Facts About 3D Animators<div align="justify"><a href="http://netindian.in/news/2010/09/19/0007940/tej-kohli-foundation-donate-rs-15000-every-month-corneal-transplants">Tej Kohli</a> blog for Animation Career help shares another informative article by <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4147295/">Tej Kohli</a>, stating some facts about 3D animation. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">As the computer technology continues to advance by leaps and bounds, 3D animation has branched out into many sub-fields like gaming, cinema, advertising, engineering and education.

Incorporating these elements is easy and even children can use these techniques to enhance their simple line drawings to add depth to the animals and make them stand out of the backdrops. The first rule of thumb in 3D drawings is always draw in pencil, as it makes it easier to add shading and rectify the mistakes. However, once the basic drawing is ready, it can be later enhanced with colors. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ol style="text-align: justify;"><li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;"> Shading in the portion of animals creates depth. Rendering with a light color makes an object look closer while a darker color makes it look distant. For example, because the nose of the dog protrudes out, if drawing illustrates a dog's face head on, his nose area would be lighter than its cheeks and forehead.</p> </li><li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;"> Adding shadows will make animal pop put from its background. After deciding what direction the light would fall from, make all the shadows uniform. Given that the sun were directly in front f the animal, the shadow would fall behind it. Alternatively, if the light is coming from the left, the shadow would be slanted towards the right. </p> </li><li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;"> Instead of rendering the flat lines, add views from the side and back angles. For example, you may add a slanted line alongside the outline of the animal's leg to create a rounded limb. By showing a slight view of the side of the leg other than the front makes the limb emerge from the plain and give drawing a 3D quality. </p> </li><li><p style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-decoration: none;"> Use proportion to help the animal stand out. If the head of the horse is facing towards the front and body is extended behind it, the front legs should be slightly larger than the hind legs since they are father from the view. </p></li></ol><div style="text-align: justify;">Read More : <a href="http://tej-kohli-guide.livejournal.com/">Tej Kohli</a> Guide | <a href="http://www.tejkohli.us">Tej Kohli</a> Blog for Study Places in US | <a href="http://www.tejkohli.biz/">Tej Kohli</a> Business Blog<br /></div>Tej Kohlihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02546150389678173430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941922936814048081.post-24954103815531169942010-11-30T22:22:00.000-08:002010-11-30T22:48:26.252-08:00Tej Kohli's Free 3D Animation Tools<div align="justify">In the wake of the several award-winning 3D animation movies, a lot of students and computer design graduates find themselves interesting in taking up a career in 3D animation movies. <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/Tej_Kohli">Tej Kohli</a> animation career blog has always strived to help those seeking a creer in animation field.

Today, <a href="http://press-releases.techwhack.com/104011-tej-kohli">Tej Kohli</a> will explain you about the process of cartooning and various steps involved in it.<br /><br /><strong>Pre-Production</strong><br /><br />The pre-production stage of cartooning starts with a storyboard, where the complete story is rendered in comics style to give an illustration of how the story proceeds besides serving as a guide for the animators. These graphics or drawings can be laid out on either poster board, large sheets of paper or a foam board. In the West, especially the North America, this voice acting is also recorded in the animation so the animators can use it to guide their work. Whereas, in Eastern animation, the voice acting is recorded to match the animated images instead of the other way around.<br /><br /><strong>Animation Drawing</strong><br /><br />In this process, the animated drawings are sketched onto 'cels', which are individual character pictures for every single moment, including the slightest movement made by the characters. The animator first draw cel pictures on a paper as an outline and, originally were scanned and printed on plastic celluloid sheets and painted in hand. Nowadays, these outlines are usually uploaded and colored through a computer. The background images is also drawn. One may use these drawings repetitively as they remain static throughout the scene.<br /><br /><strong>Shooting the animation</strong><br /><br />All the cels required for one animation frame are laid out on the scene backdrop to generate the entire setting of the frame. Then, the camera shoots the frame. A second of animation uses about 26 frames on an average, thereby, requiring the use of thousands of cel sheets places singularly on the background and shot one at a time. The frames, when rightly placed and shot in action, can create action when the recording is replayed. Once the recording is done, the music, voices and other sound effects are introduced to the animation, and the whole show can then be edited to get the final outcome. </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"><a href="http://www.eioba.com/a128424/tej_kohli_foundation_cornea_transplant_program_in_india">Tej Kohli</a> Corneal Transplant Mission <a href="http://my.opera.com/Tej-Kohli/blog/">Tej Kohli</a> Law Career Blog <a href="http://www.tejkohli.us/">Tej Kohli</a> Study Abroad Blog</div>Tej Kohlihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02546150389678173430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941922936814048081.post-19399634143426164702010-09-27T04:09:00.001-07:002010-09-27T04:17:02.999-07:00Tej Kohli Explains 2D Animation Techniques<a href="http://twitter.com/mrtejkohli"><strong>Tej Kohli</strong></a> Animation Career Blog explains the basic 2D animation techniques...<br /><br />Animation, be it 2D or 3D, is a string of frames that imparts movement. Traditional animation comprised of a sequence of illustrations shat at 24 frames per second. The art of animation is varied and that's why the list of 2D animation methods has gone far behind paper and pencil. Give below is the overview of 2d animation techniques and principles. <br /><br /><strong>The art of movement</strong> – one of the basic aesthetics of animation is deciding the motion of the drawings. Will it snap, or will it have an attitude, this is up to an animator to select any realistic or unique style he likes to bring about the desired effect. <br /><br /><strong>Timing </strong>– once you have decided the movement of the animation, the next step is to decide how much time to allot to that action. This process is known as timing. In order to accomplish this, an animator can enact the action in his head and determine the duration using his instinct. If you want to have a more precise measurement, try this technique using a stopwatch. You may also act out the motion yourself to get a better understanding of what you are drawing. <br /><br /><strong>Spacing </strong>– spacing means determining how the drawings will be placed between each other. When done in a right manner, the spacing of illustrations can create weight and believability. This do this, always remember that when you add more drawings, the longer they will be seen on the screen. While a fewer drawings takes less time, they imply a shorter action. If the motion takes place at equal intervals, then the illustrations must be spaced equally from each other. As the motions speeds up or slows down, drawings can be spaced accordingly - slow in and slow out. <br /><br /><strong>Slow In </strong>- Think acceleration the same way as the action of reaching out your hand. The actions begins at a slow pace but gets faster as your hand accelerates upward. This is executed by padding drawings together at the beginning of the action, showing longer onscreen, to using fewer frames, father apart as the action completes, thus the ending is appearing for less time onscreen.<br /><br /><strong>Slow Out</strong> - This is a term for deceleration. The action starts fast and ends slowly, creating a slow out. At the start, drawings are placed father apart from each other, with many drawings padding the end of the action. This creates a slowing effect.<br /><br /><strong>Key Frames</strong> - These are usually the first frames drawn, and represent the major points of action. Key framing the animation is a general way of laying down a foundation of the most important poses. The biggest benefits to using key frames is the ability to see if the animation works with a relatively low drawing investment. As a note, not all animators use key frames, as it can make animation look stiff or unnatural. It also depends largely on preference.<br /><br /><strong>1s, 2s, 3s, 4s </strong>- Animation is recorded at 24 frames per second. The term 1s, 2s and so on refers to how many frames are shot per drawing. If each drawing were shot only once, a 1 to 1 ration of one drawing to one frame shot, this would mean the animation was shot on 1s. If each drawing was shot twice, one drawing for every two frames, would be called 2s, and etc. Contrary to popular opinion most animation is not shot on 1s, but rather 2s unless the action needs to be particularly smooth as in dancing or an underwater scene. <br /><br /><a href="http://press-releases.techwhack.com/104011-tej-kohli"><strong>Tej Kohli</strong></a> 3D secure | <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/Tej_Kohli"><strong>Tej Kohli</strong></a> Squidoo Profile | <a href="http://www.hindustantimes.com/Gurgaon-residents-wake-up-to-Walk-for-Vision/Article1-593520.aspx"><strong>Tej Kohli</strong></a> Walk for vision | <a href="http://sites.google.com/site/tejkohli1/"><strong>Tej Kohli</strong></a> Google SitesTej Kohlihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02546150389678173430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941922936814048081.post-84387572440009102812010-09-22T21:58:00.000-07:002010-09-22T22:14:56.824-07:00Understanding breakdown Drawings in 2D Animation with Tej Kohli<a href="http://netindian.in/news/2010/09/19/0007940/tej-kohli-foundation-donate-rs-15000-every-month-corneal-transplants">Tej Kohli</a> describe the process of 2D animation and the importance of breakdown drawings in creating an animated scene.

The breakdown drawing referred to the middle drawings that severe as the chief changeover actions between two keys. <br /><br />Story – This is the most important component of the animator's mind – it starts simply with telling a story. Video recording devices are often used as reference point and can be a paramount tool for understanding the distinction between key and breakdown drawings.<br /><br />Timing – The plan for animation depends a lot on timing. A lot of animators use stopwatch and timing graphs are detail the key frame and breakdown poses. <br /><br />Key Frames – these are the primary describing actions that explains the story of the scene. If you are making a a story animation, it must begin with key frames to organize the further work. <br /><br />Breakdown – it's not necessary to place the breakdown at the exact middle point between the two key frames. Since, a breakdown is next most changeover point between two key drawings, it necessitates a lot of fine tuning and shifting. <br /><br />In-between – also known as straight run, these drawings fills in the remaining information enabling a smooth run for your scene. The direction already established by the key and breakdown drawings is crucial to create the smoothest flow and timing for 2D animation.<br /><br /><a href="http://press-releases.techwhack.com/104011-tej-kohli">Tej Kohli</a> in News | <a href="http://www.crunchbase.com/person/tej-kohli">Tej Kohli</a> Profile| <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/Tej_Kohli">Tej Kohli</a> SquidooTej Kohlihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02546150389678173430noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941922936814048081.post-24520957906246276002010-08-17T22:10:00.000-07:002010-08-18T00:39:31.202-07:00History of Animation by Tej Kohli<h2><a href="http://tej-kohli-us.blogspot.com/">Tej Kohli </a></h2>History of animation<br /><div align="justify"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_05XYOwE4jCM/TGuLdiJPhwI/AAAAAAAAABA/KikQAAjbtqc/s1600/toystory.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506648308888602370" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 375px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_05XYOwE4jCM/TGuLdiJPhwI/AAAAAAAAABA/KikQAAjbtqc/s400/toystory.bmp" border="0" /></a>Animation has come a long way from papers to the computer screens and now the big screen. But do you even now how animation started? <a href="http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/5807173-tej-kohli-ipad-review">Tej Kohli </a>blog takes on a delighful journey of the animation...</div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Animated films have entertained people from all around the world for over years now. A shark leaping out of the water to attack, a humanoid swinging through the trees centuries in to the future, or a bird flying so close you can almost hear the flapping of its wings – these are a few examples of animation work seen by zillions across the globe in animation movies. What started as groups of hand-drawn pictures of cartoons about a century ago has turned into a multi-billion dollar industry that entertains and challenges us the way no artform has ever done.</div><div align="justify"><strong></strong></div><div align="justify"><strong>Early History Of Animation</strong><br />The inception of the animation dates back to 1824 when Peter Roget wrote a scientific paper on how the brain sees individual images as a continuous series of motion. This was followed by the invention of the first camera, the kinetoscope by Thomas Edison that could project 13 seconds of a film. Within a decade, photographer and owner of the Vitagraph Studios, J. Stuart Blackton made the first ever animation film with the help of a blackboard. Known as 'Humorous phases of funny faces', he drew a comic face them filmed it, stopped the camera while he erased a face and made a new face and then filmed it again. This outcome of changing faces or stop-motion became the first animated film technique. </div><div align="justify"><strong></strong></div><div align="justify"><strong>The Silent Era</strong><br />In 1910, the French caricaturist and animator Emile Cohl used paper cutouts to demonstrate an early example of animated films. His technique revolved around repositioning the figure instead of drawing it again, which was time saving. By the year 1914, Winsor McCay, also known as the father of American animation, created a cartoon named Gertie the Dinosaur, which needed thousands of individual drawings. In the same year, Earl Hurd, when working at John Bay studios, developed the technique of drawing on transparent cels and then photographed each one. This cel animation technique became the foundation of animated film making for years. </div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>Disney's animated Cels</strong><br />In 1923m Walt Disney, a commercial artist, shifted from Kansas City toLA to work as a director. Disney wanted realism in his characters and trained his animators to study anatomy to add more life to the characters. He advanced the Hurd's Cel animation technique. Images were hand drawn on transparent cels in layers, one on top of another. Background cel was kept at the bottom of the pile as each layer was filmed then removed. The process was time consuming and took weeks to generate a single sequence. It was in 1928, when Disney made its first talking animated film, “steamboat Willie”, an instant success that introduced Mickey Mouse. By 1937, Disney produced the first full length colored animated film “Snow white and the seven dwarfs”, earning an academy award, the first of 37 Oscars for Disney. </div><div align="justify"><strong></strong></div><div align="justify"><strong>Early Computer Animation</strong><br />By the year 1980, what had taken weeks to do manually was replaced by the first computer animated production system – CAPS, and by the year 1985, Disney studio adopted this computer generated process entirely. With a wider color palette and blended and shaded tones, this computer software added a more realistic appeal to the animation. Developed by Disney and Pixar artists and engineers, this program allowed camera movements such as pan, tilt and zooms as a part of entire filming process. Disney took over Pixar in 2006, replacing CAPS with newer 2D and 3D animation techniques. </div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"><strong>CGI animation and 3D</strong><br />The introduction of CGI, computer generated imagery, changed film making for good. With movies like the 'Terminator 2' and 'Jurrassic Park' in the 1990, animation marked a new epoch in the film making industry. In 1995, Walt Disney Productions and Pixar animation studios jointly produced “Toy Story', the first film to be completely animated using CGI technology. Motion capture is a technique where any movement is recorded and transferred digitally. This technique is used by the US military to create battlefield scenarios in its training. This method was first used in 2004 movie “The Polar Express” . In 2009, film “Avatar” reinvented 3D technology as the first ever movie to use performance capture imagery to produce life-like 3D characters and an entire world. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"><a href="http://www.bi-me.com/main.php?c=3&cg=2&t=1&id=42243">Tej Kohli</a> Real Estate <a href="http://www.articlesbase.com/vision-articles/tej-kohli-foundation-cornea-transplant-mission-2669752.html">Tej Kohli</a> Cornea Transplant <a href="http://www.grafixsoftech.com/">Tej Kohli</a> Grafix Softech <a href="http://twitter.com/mrtejkohli">Tej Kohli</a> on Twitter </div>Tej Kohlihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02546150389678173430noreply@blogger.com0
