So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Decide Whether You Prefer 3D Animation Toronto Or Other Styles To Create Your Film

By Sharron Cantu


General animation types include stop-motion, 2D, and the popular 3D animations. 3D animation Toronto is one of the best methods animators use to create eye-catching films and clips. Making a movie with the aid of photographs of objects, series of drawings or computer graphics in general is basically moving pictures that represent any subject matter, from a moving bike to a full-featured Disney film.

Creating an animated movie can take you minutes or years, depending on the details and difficulty of the project. The mediums you can use to create it can be virtually anything. Animators use physical models and drawings with pencil, clay, sand, coins, etc. They can also use software to create computer models and drawings.

Making a movie by using photographs of objects, series of drawings or computer graphics essentially falls into three categories. These are stop-motion, 2D, and 3D animations. These are called the basic animation types. The difference between stop-motion and a regular captured video is that the animator or filmmaker movies physical objects between takes, rather than shooting moving objects in a continuous stream.

There are two types of the 2D category. The first is cell animation, which is the traditional style of 2D. All the older 2D films were made in this fashion before advances in computer technology. The cell process of making a movie by using photographs of objects, series of drawings or computer graphics is a frame-by-frame method, meaning that animators draw every frame of every scene on paper. Afterwards, each drawing is shot by a camera, and a clip is created by linking them together.

Another style of 2D process is completely computer generated. With this method, an animator draws and paints sketches on the computer, using no actual paper. Generally, most animators prefer to use a popular software called Adobe Flash to do this.

There is also one other way of creating 2D animations. This involves actually using a mixture of the two 2D methods. For example, the animator could physically draw his or her drawings on paper, then scan them into a computer to color them in or add more design to it.

Nowadays, feature films are usually made in 3D animations. This is due to the immense amount of detail an animator can include in their characters and objects. While 2D is created on 2 axis and does not provide many angles of view on the subject matter, 3D is made on 3 axis (x, y, z) and gives the viewer as much detail the animator wants.

3D type is computer generated, and never manually drawn out. Animators who prefer an easily comprehensible or simple software prefer to use Blender. They find it a lot easier to use than software like Maya and 3D Max, which are quite effective but may require a bit more skill.

Another noteworthy style is motion capture. This type of style isn't particularly considered animation though, since it is a mix of 3D and live action capture. It involves captured video that is rendered with 3D software to make the clip seem animated.
