The First Post

The first blog placeholder for Ani123, Physics in Animation class.

Today, in class we have a class demonstration called the "Vampire Stake."  The hammer hit the stake on a tile breaks, whereas it does not harm the victim without the tile.

The lecture is about the 3 basic of animations: tradition, computer, stop-motion.
The other types to composing animation to live-action: compositing, rotoscoping, motion caption.
The 4 "A's" levels of Animation: Activity (arbitrary movement), Action (follow physical law), Animation (intention), Acting (convey personality).
