Animation

Animation is the art and technique of creating the illusion of motion by displaying a series of individual drawings, paintings, or illustrations in rapid succession. This process can also involve the manipulation of objects or the use of computer-generated imagery (CGI) to produce the appearance of movement. Animation can be applied in various mediums, including film, television, video games, and online content.

The key aspect of animation is the sequence of images or frames, which are shown at a speed that typically ranges from 12 to 30 frames per second, creating a smooth perception of motion. Various animation techniques exist, including traditional 2D animation, 3D animation, stop-motion, and motion graphics.

Essentially, animation transforms static images into dynamic visual narratives, engaging audiences through storytelling and creative expression.
