1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,249
Let's explain a bit
the animation techniques.

2
00:00:02,249 --> 00:00:04,078
So, for starters,

3
00:00:04,078 --> 00:00:06,923
remember that animation is an illusion,

4
00:00:06,923 --> 00:00:09,103
so everything you see is not real.

5
00:00:09,103 --> 00:00:11,482
Even I am not really moving now.

6
00:00:11,482 --> 00:00:14,366
You're just seeing a semplification...

7
00:00:14,366 --> 00:00:16,796
...of the movement I made right now,

8
00:00:16,796 --> 00:00:21,281
because the video camera takes
thirty frames per second,

9
00:00:21,281 --> 00:00:23,343
which simplify my movement...

10
00:00:23,343 --> 00:00:27,146
...and create the illusion,
but you don't really see the movement.

11
00:00:27,146 --> 00:00:29,867
This illusion works incredibly well.

12
00:00:29,867 --> 00:00:31,228
How does animation work?

13
00:00:31,228 --> 00:00:33,008
Animation consists in:

14
00:00:33,008 --> 00:00:37,777
instead of taking someone
who is really moving,

15
00:00:37,777 --> 00:00:43,487
and using a movie camera
to record their movement...

16
00:00:43,487 --> 00:00:45,212
...and creating a simulation,

17
00:00:45,212 --> 00:00:46,375
we do the opposite.

18
00:00:46,375 --> 00:00:48,799
There is no movie camera in animation.

19
00:00:48,799 --> 00:00:49,777
There is none.

20
00:00:50,271 --> 00:00:52,832
You don't need
the techonolgy of the machine...

21
00:00:52,832 --> 00:00:55,888
...recording you
with thirty frames per second,

22
00:00:55,888 --> 00:00:58,102
because each picture can be taken...

23
00:00:58,102 --> 00:01:00,524
...potentially even years later.

24
00:01:01,098 --> 00:01:05,535
Animation is that illusion
in which I, human being,

25
00:01:05,535 --> 00:01:09,918
take pictures whenever I want,

26
00:01:09,918 --> 00:01:15,626
to create the illusion that something
that can't actually move, is moving.

27
00:01:15,832 --> 00:01:20,300
The most famous and used
technique ever is the traditional.

28
00:01:20,300 --> 00:01:23,715
The traditional technique
consists in a drawing,

29
00:01:23,715 --> 00:01:25,783
which gets redone from scratch,

30
00:01:25,783 --> 00:01:28,055
and redone again,

31
00:01:28,055 --> 00:01:30,099
and redone again.

32
00:01:30,099 --> 00:01:32,909
Each drawing you make has
some slight changes,

33
00:01:32,909 --> 00:01:35,810
so when you see
these drawings in sequence...

34
00:01:35,810 --> 00:01:37,680
...it creates
the illusion of movement.

35
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,183
Pretty simple concept, right?
This is traditional animation.

36
00:01:41,183 --> 00:01:45,699
Then it takes many names
based on the support used to draw.

37
00:01:45,699 --> 00:01:48,874
If you use a cel,
that is an acetate sheet,

38
00:01:48,874 --> 00:01:51,166
with a paper sheet, strapped together,

39
00:01:51,166 --> 00:01:54,026
it's hard to explain,
but that is an animation cel.

40
00:01:54,026 --> 00:01:56,636
If you use a real classic drawing,

41
00:01:56,636 --> 00:01:58,836
done by pen nib and all that,

42
00:01:58,836 --> 00:02:00,624
that is traditional animation.

43
00:02:00,624 --> 00:02:03,764
If you instead used
the same technique,

44
00:02:03,764 --> 00:02:05,994
but the sheet was digital...

45
00:02:05,994 --> 00:02:09,634
...and the drawings are made
on a tablet, for instance,

46
00:02:09,634 --> 00:02:11,026
it's called paperless.

47
00:02:11,026 --> 00:02:13,283
And it's the same as
traditional technique,

48
00:02:13,283 --> 00:02:15,517
there's simply no paper waste.

49
00:02:15,586 --> 00:02:16,956
What if it's with pixels?

50
00:02:16,956 --> 00:02:18,281
That's pixel animation.

51
00:02:18,452 --> 00:02:20,924
Pixel animation is the same thing,

52
00:02:20,924 --> 00:02:23,074
but the drawing this time is made...

53
00:02:23,074 --> 00:02:25,791
...using little colored
squares called pixels.

54
00:02:25,935 --> 00:02:29,341
You could animate
in any other way, using sand,

55
00:02:29,341 --> 00:02:31,244
you could use any support...

56
00:02:31,244 --> 00:02:34,082
...but if every time
you have to redraw the character,

57
00:02:34,082 --> 00:02:35,432
it's traditional animation.

58
00:02:35,740 --> 00:02:39,327
Rotoscope is one of the types
of traditional animation.

59
00:02:39,327 --> 00:02:40,720
What is the rotoscope?

60
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,830
It's the same thing,
but I didn't make up a drawing,

61
00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:45,679
I filmed a person...

62
00:02:45,679 --> 00:02:48,673
...and now I'm tracing
the individual frames.

63
00:02:48,673 --> 00:02:52,168
There are also full movies
made with rotoscope,

64
00:02:52,168 --> 00:02:54,623
tv series made with rotoscope,

65
00:02:54,623 --> 00:02:58,043
but in the past
the rotoscope was mainly used...

66
00:02:58,043 --> 00:03:00,247
...to create more realistic humans,

67
00:03:00,247 --> 00:03:03,147
who perhaps could
be a bit unsettling...

68
00:03:03,147 --> 00:03:05,692
...and, I don't know,
give off a strange feeling.

69
00:03:05,692 --> 00:03:07,677
In Pinocchio and 101 Dalmatians...

70
00:03:07,677 --> 00:03:10,097
...the vehicles are animated
with rotoscope,

71
00:03:10,097 --> 00:03:12,827
so there are tiny models
that actually move,

72
00:03:12,827 --> 00:03:15,284
they are filmed and then
the movement is traced.

73
00:03:15,284 --> 00:03:17,981
In The Lord of the Rings
everything is in rotoscope,

74
00:03:17,981 --> 00:03:21,101
there are real people actually moving,

75
00:03:21,101 --> 00:03:22,441
that get traced later.

76
00:03:22,441 --> 00:03:24,855
Nowadays we hear much
about cel-shading.

77
00:03:24,855 --> 00:03:26,109
What is cel-shading?

78
00:03:26,109 --> 00:03:28,516
It's just an effect
you apply to your drawing.

79
00:03:28,516 --> 00:03:30,481
So you make traditional animation,

80
00:03:30,481 --> 00:03:33,285
usually paperless, all chill,

81
00:03:33,855 --> 00:03:37,996
but then you use the computer
to help you with the lights.

82
00:03:37,996 --> 00:03:40,226
And maybe some other details too.

83
00:03:40,226 --> 00:03:42,336
That's what happened
in Klaus for example.

84
00:03:42,336 --> 00:03:44,190
So you drew everything by hand,

85
00:03:44,190 --> 00:03:46,834
the lights are simply
done with the computer.

86
00:03:46,834 --> 00:03:49,954
Disney already used
another technology called C.A.P.S.,

87
00:03:49,954 --> 00:03:53,284


88
00:03:53,284 --> 00:03:55,014


89
00:03:55,014 --> 00:03:56,989


90
00:03:56,989 --> 00:04:00,221


91
00:04:00,221 --> 00:04:01,681


92
00:04:01,681 --> 00:04:03,371


93
00:04:03,371 --> 00:04:04,944


94
00:04:04,944 --> 00:04:08,994


95
00:04:08,994 --> 00:04:11,043


96
00:04:11,043 --> 00:04:12,719


97
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:17,329


98
00:04:17,329 --> 00:04:19,642


99
00:04:20,617 --> 00:04:23,181


100
00:04:23,181 --> 00:04:27,090


101
00:04:27,090 --> 00:04:30,236


102
00:04:30,236 --> 00:04:35,674


103
00:04:35,674 --> 00:04:39,640


104
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,092


105
00:04:41,092 --> 00:04:44,882


106
00:04:44,882 --> 00:04:46,870


107
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:48,330


108
00:04:48,330 --> 00:04:52,330


109
00:04:52,330 --> 00:04:55,214


110
00:04:55,214 --> 00:04:58,348


111
00:04:58,348 --> 00:04:59,849


112
00:04:59,849 --> 00:05:03,633


113
00:05:03,633 --> 00:05:06,156


114
00:05:06,156 --> 00:05:09,818


115
00:05:09,818 --> 00:05:12,047


116
00:05:12,047 --> 00:05:16,047


117
00:05:16,047 --> 00:05:17,541


118
00:05:17,541 --> 00:05:20,294


119
00:05:20,294 --> 00:05:22,032


120
00:05:22,551 --> 00:05:23,816


121
00:05:24,579 --> 00:05:27,080


122
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,980


123
00:05:29,980 --> 00:05:33,022


124
00:05:33,473 --> 00:05:35,893


125
00:05:35,893 --> 00:05:39,009


126
00:05:39,009 --> 00:05:43,009


127
00:05:43,009 --> 00:05:45,399


128
00:05:45,399 --> 00:05:49,621


129
00:05:49,926 --> 00:05:51,892


130
00:05:51,892 --> 00:05:54,749


131
00:05:54,749 --> 00:05:57,268


132
00:05:57,268 --> 00:06:01,268


133
00:06:01,268 --> 00:06:04,449


134
00:06:04,449 --> 00:06:09,133


135
00:06:09,133 --> 00:06:12,128


136
00:06:12,128 --> 00:06:14,041


137
00:06:14,041 --> 00:06:16,301


138
00:06:16,301 --> 00:06:18,490


139
00:06:18,490 --> 00:06:19,410


140
00:06:19,410 --> 00:06:22,070


141
00:06:22,070 --> 00:06:24,083


142
00:06:24,286 --> 00:06:25,971


143
00:06:25,971 --> 00:06:28,947


144
00:06:28,947 --> 00:06:30,227


145
00:06:30,227 --> 00:06:32,577


146
00:06:32,577 --> 00:06:34,740


147
00:06:34,740 --> 00:06:36,784


148
00:06:36,784 --> 00:06:39,367


149
00:06:39,367 --> 00:06:43,121


150
00:06:43,121 --> 00:06:46,761


151
00:06:46,761 --> 00:06:49,490


152
00:06:49,490 --> 00:06:51,230


153
00:06:51,230 --> 00:06:53,146


154
00:06:53,277 --> 00:06:56,010


155
00:06:56,010 --> 00:06:58,023


156
00:06:58,023 --> 00:06:59,768


157
00:06:59,768 --> 00:07:02,688


158
00:07:02,688 --> 00:07:04,978


159
00:07:04,978 --> 00:07:08,223


160
00:07:08,223 --> 00:07:10,587


161
00:07:10,587 --> 00:07:14,934


162
00:07:14,934 --> 00:07:16,522


163
00:07:16,522 --> 00:07:19,164


164
00:07:19,164 --> 00:07:22,052


165
00:07:22,052 --> 00:07:26,052


166
00:07:26,052 --> 00:07:29,772


167
00:07:29,772 --> 00:07:33,254


168
00:07:33,254 --> 00:07:38,000


169
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,665


170
00:07:41,665 --> 00:07:44,800


171
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,608


172
00:07:47,608 --> 00:07:50,620


173
00:07:50,620 --> 00:07:52,340


174
00:07:52,340 --> 00:07:54,339


175
00:07:54,339 --> 00:07:56,182


176
00:07:56,261 --> 00:07:58,955


177
00:07:58,955 --> 00:08:02,065


178
00:08:02,065 --> 00:08:03,855


179
00:08:03,855 --> 00:08:07,855


180
00:08:08,223 --> 00:08:10,138


181
00:08:10,138 --> 00:08:12,878


182
00:08:12,878 --> 00:08:14,298


183
00:08:14,298 --> 00:08:17,165


184
00:08:17,165 --> 00:08:20,525


185
00:08:20,525 --> 00:08:25,440


186
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,440


187
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,258


188
00:08:31,258 --> 00:08:35,378


189
00:08:35,378 --> 00:08:37,708


190
00:08:37,708 --> 00:08:39,778


191
00:08:39,778 --> 00:08:42,448


192
00:08:42,448 --> 00:08:45,562


193
00:08:45,562 --> 00:08:47,316


194
00:08:47,316 --> 00:08:48,750


195
00:08:48,750 --> 00:08:51,348


196
00:08:51,348 --> 00:08:53,425


197
00:08:53,425 --> 00:08:56,915


198
00:08:56,915 --> 00:08:58,665


199
00:08:58,665 --> 00:08:59,888


200
00:08:59,888 --> 00:09:04,193


201
00:09:04,193 --> 00:09:08,113


202
00:09:08,113 --> 00:09:10,943


203
00:09:10,943 --> 00:09:15,329


204
00:09:15,329 --> 00:09:16,979


205
00:09:16,979 --> 00:09:19,877


206
00:09:19,877 --> 00:09:24,599


207
00:09:24,599 --> 00:09:27,675


208
