0:00:00.000,0:00:02.249
Let's explain a bit[br]the animation techniques.

0:00:02.249,0:00:04.078
So, for starters,

0:00:04.078,0:00:06.923
remember that animation is an illusion,

0:00:06.923,0:00:09.103
so everything you see is not real.

0:00:09.103,0:00:11.482
Even I am not really moving now.

0:00:11.482,0:00:14.366
You're just seeing a semplification...

0:00:14.366,0:00:16.796
...of the movement I made right now,

0:00:16.796,0:00:21.281
because the video camera takes[br]thirty frames per second,

0:00:21.281,0:00:23.343
which simplify my movement...

0:00:23.343,0:00:27.146
...and create the illusion,[br]but you don't really see the movement.

0:00:27.146,0:00:29.867
This illusion works incredibly well.

0:00:29.867,0:00:31.228
How does animation work?

0:00:31.228,0:00:33.008
Animation consists in:

0:00:33.008,0:00:37.777
instead of taking someone[br]who is really moving,

0:00:37.777,0:00:43.487
and using a movie camera[br]to record their movement...

0:00:43.487,0:00:45.212
...and creating a simulation,

0:00:45.212,0:00:46.375
we do the opposite.

0:00:46.375,0:00:48.799
There is no movie camera in animation.

0:00:48.799,0:00:49.777
There is none.

0:00:50.271,0:00:52.832
You don't need[br]the techonolgy of the machine...

0:00:52.832,0:00:55.888
...recording you[br]with thirty frames per second,

0:00:55.888,0:00:58.102
because each picture can be taken...

0:00:58.102,0:01:00.524
...potentially even years later.

0:01:01.098,0:01:05.535
Animation is that illusion[br]in which I, human being,

0:01:05.535,0:01:09.918
take pictures whenever I want,

0:01:09.918,0:01:15.626
to create the illusion that something[br]that can't actually move, is moving.

0:01:15.832,0:01:20.300
The most famous and used[br]technique ever is the traditional.

0:01:20.300,0:01:23.715
The traditional technique[br]consists in a drawing,

0:01:23.715,0:01:25.783
which gets redone from scratch,

0:01:25.783,0:01:28.055
and redone again,

0:01:28.055,0:01:30.099
and redone again.

0:01:30.099,0:01:32.909
Each drawing you make has[br]some slight changes,

0:01:32.909,0:01:35.810
so when you see[br]these drawings in sequence...

0:01:35.810,0:01:37.680
...it creates[br]the illusion of movement.

0:01:37.680,0:01:41.183
Pretty simple concept, right?[br]This is traditional animation.

0:01:41.183,0:01:45.699
Then it takes many names[br]based on the support used to draw.

0:01:45.699,0:01:48.874
If you use a cel,[br]that is an acetate sheet,

0:01:48.874,0:01:51.166
with a paper sheet, strapped together,

0:01:51.166,0:01:54.026
it's hard to explain,[br]but that is an animation cel.

0:01:54.026,0:01:56.636
If you use a real classic drawing,

0:01:56.636,0:01:58.836
done by pen nib and all that,

0:01:58.836,0:02:00.624
that is traditional animation.

0:02:00.624,0:02:03.764
If you instead used[br]the same technique,

0:02:03.764,0:02:05.994
but the sheet was digital...

0:02:05.994,0:02:09.634
...and the drawings are made[br]on a tablet, for instance,

0:02:09.634,0:02:11.026
it's called paperless.

0:02:11.026,0:02:13.283
And it's the same as[br]traditional technique,

0:02:13.283,0:02:15.517
there's simply no paper waste.

0:02:15.586,0:02:16.956
What if it's with pixels?

0:02:16.956,0:02:18.281
That's pixel animation.

0:02:18.452,0:02:20.924
Pixel animation is the same thing,

0:02:20.924,0:02:23.074
but the drawing this time is made...

0:02:23.074,0:02:25.791
...using little colored[br]squares called pixels.

0:02:25.935,0:02:29.341
You could animate[br]in any other way, using sand,

0:02:29.341,0:02:31.244
you could use any support...

0:02:31.244,0:02:34.082
...but if every time[br]you have to redraw the character,

0:02:34.082,0:02:35.432
it's traditional animation.

0:02:35.740,0:02:39.327
Rotoscope is one of the types[br]of traditional animation.

0:02:39.327,0:02:40.720
What is the rotoscope?

0:02:40.720,0:02:43.830
It's the same thing,[br]but I didn't make up a drawing,

0:02:43.830,0:02:45.679
I filmed a person...

0:02:45.679,0:02:48.673
...and now I'm tracing[br]the individual frames.

0:02:48.673,0:02:52.168
There are also full movies[br]made with rotoscope,

0:02:52.168,0:02:54.623
tv series made with rotoscope,

0:02:54.623,0:02:58.043
but in the past[br]the rotoscope was mainly used...

0:02:58.043,0:03:00.247
...to create more realistic humans,

0:03:00.247,0:03:03.147
who perhaps could[br]be a bit unsettling...

0:03:03.147,0:03:05.692
...and, I don't know,[br]give off a strange feeling.

0:03:05.692,0:03:07.677
In Pinocchio and 101 Dalmatians...

0:03:07.677,0:03:10.097
...the vehicles are animated[br]with rotoscope,

0:03:10.097,0:03:12.827
so there are tiny models[br]that actually move,

0:03:12.827,0:03:15.284
they are filmed and then[br]the movement is traced.

0:03:15.284,0:03:17.981
In The Lord of the Rings[br]everything is in rotoscope,

0:03:17.981,0:03:21.101
there are real people actually moving,

0:03:21.101,0:03:22.441
that get traced later.

0:03:22.441,0:03:24.855
Nowadays we hear much[br]about cel-shading.

0:03:24.855,0:03:26.109
What is cel-shading?

0:03:26.109,0:03:28.516
It's just an effect[br]you apply to your drawing.

0:03:28.516,0:03:30.481
So you make traditional animation,

0:03:30.481,0:03:33.285
usually paperless, all chill,

0:03:33.855,0:03:37.996
but then you use the computer[br]to help you with the lights.

0:03:37.996,0:03:40.226
And maybe some other details too.

0:03:40.226,0:03:42.336
That's what happened[br]in Klaus for example.

0:03:42.336,0:03:44.190
So you drew everything by hand,

0:03:44.190,0:03:46.834
the lights are simply[br]done with the computer.

0:03:46.834,0:03:49.954
Disney already used[br]another technology called C.A.P.S.,

0:03:49.954,0:03:53.284
which allowed it[br]to create drawings on paper...

0:03:53.284,0:03:55.014
...then move them to the computer...

0:03:55.014,0:03:56.989
...and handling them as it pleased.

0:03:56.989,0:04:00.221
But you got the gist:[br]there's traditional animation,

0:04:00.221,0:04:01.681
then there are the variants.

0:04:01.681,0:04:03.371
The thousand ways to do it.

0:04:03.371,0:04:04.944
Then there is stopmotion.

0:04:04.944,0:04:08.994
Stopmotion is one of the most[br]talked about techniques ever,

0:04:08.994,0:04:11.043
everyone knows the word stopmotion.

0:04:11.043,0:04:12.719
And stopmotion animation,

0:04:12.719,0:04:17.329
or stop frame, is the animation[br]where you take an inanimate object...

0:04:17.329,0:04:19.642
...and you take a series of pictures...

0:04:20.617,0:04:23.181
Don't take pictures[br]while you move the object,

0:04:23.181,0:04:27.090
do it when it's alone,[br]so it will seem that it moved.

0:04:27.090,0:04:30.236
The stopmotion type that almost[br]everyone thinks about is puppet,

0:04:30.236,0:04:35.674
that is when you use[br]the so called articulated toys...

0:04:35.674,0:04:39.640
...which move bit by bit[br]by taking many pictures.

0:04:39.640,0:04:41.092
In traditional animation,

0:04:41.092,0:04:44.882
if a character jumps it's not hard...

0:04:44.882,0:04:46.870
...nor different than making it roll.

0:04:46.870,0:04:48.330
