|
| 1,440 fps (frames per second) |
|
| 1 minute of VIDEO (30 fps) |
|
| 1,800 fps (frames per second) |
|
|
|
| cartoons like Scooby-doo with a still background and moving characters in the forefront |
|
|
|
| drawing that is pretty much like tracing over real images and footage. |
|
|
|
| examples include “The Nightmare before Christmas” |
|
|
|
|
“Animals in motion”
and
“Humans in motion”
two very important published books because they are still used today as an animators reference
|
|
| The Humorous Phases of Funny Faces |
|
|
by J. Stuart Blackton
It was the first animated film.

|
|
|

|
|
|
| 1st movies to use realistic computer generated actors |
|
|
|
| detailed sculptures used in the pre-production process of animation |
|
|
|
| the process in creating the sculptures in the computer or assembling the 3D objects |
|
|
|
| lines that digitally trace in CPU using shapes. (building blocks for models) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| a flat image that wraps around a sculpture to add more dimension. it makes it more realistic. |
|
|
|
| where start and end positions are created… the computer creates the movement between the two points by filling in the spaces |
|
|
|
| recording a human performance to use as part of the animation process |
|
|
|
| points in a 3D space that are animated based on physics |
|
|
|
| converting 3D data to 2D data (is the most time consuming) |
|
|
|
| a network of computers used simultaneously to render |
|
|
|
| layering separate rendered images of computer graphics with live action |
|
|
|
|
Cuts the computer generated character into the scene to make it look like they;re there, trims the character to make him fit dimensionally, frame by frame

and has ONE way communication
|
|
|
|
|
(file transfer proto-call)
online file sharing
TWO way communication
|
|
|
|
| ended the sponsorship of the government funded internet use in 1995. the limitation of commercial use ends. |

|
|
|
|
|
wav : microsoft
AIFF : apple
BOTH of these contain raw audio data
|
|
| PCM (pulse code modulation) |
|
|
– sample rate = 44.1kHz (CD standard)
– quantization = 16 bit (CD standard)

|
designed for 352 X 240 resolution @ 30fps
used in progressive video
|
|
|
|
| breaks sound into 576 frequency components. Up to 48kHz sample rate in stereo |
|
|
|
| works on the principles that we hear certain frequencies better than others… when sounds occur, we mostly perceive the louder sound. |
|
|
|
| handles interlaced and progressive encoding and was designed for NTSC (480i) |
|
|

|
|
|
| the levels between nominal level and noise floor level (the lowest) |

global control over I/O’s
has a talk back system (mic into booth)
has the master fader
|
