ANIMATION IN THEORY
Animation comes from the Latin, anima, meaning soul, life, soul and spirit. Animation is a two-dimensional image that seems to move. Animation is an art to manipulate the image to be as though alive and moving, which consists of 2-dimensional animation and 3 dimensional. 2D animation makes objects as living by using paper or computer.
3D animation is an animation created using models such as that derived from wax, clay, puppet / marionette, and using animation camera which can record frame by frame. When the images are projected sequentially and quickly, wax or clay doll or marionette will teihat like to live and move. 3D animation can also be made by using a computer.
Initial process is to establish a model, providing texture, color, until light. Then the model is given a frame, color, until light. Then the model is given a framework and gerakanya designed one by one. The entire manufacturing process from beginning to end is done on computer animated films such as Walt Disney or Pixar kind of Shrek, Aladdin, The Cars or Final Fantasy.
Use of animated films
Use of animated films is not limited to films for children or movie entertainment, but also used in various fields, because the other side with detailed animations to explain something or information to be conveyed to the public. The following are examples of the use of animated films:
Use of animated films is not limited to films for children or movie entertainment, but also used in various fields, because the other side with detailed animations to explain something or information to be conveyed to the public. The following are examples of the use of animated films:
- Forensic Animation: Animation dibua to explain the accident, according to eyewitnesses, the data-dat vehicle testing results.
- Animated Simulation: This animation digunakakn ntuk help illustrate the process of something happening or what events will be faced, or how something will happen commonly known also by Infographic Animation.
- Animation for Architecture: The use of animation to the field of architecture will help, for example, to describe the structure of a good building-rise buildings since the beginning of planning, the development process to finish, and not just on buildings but also to show the interior with a variety of possible changes in wall color and good equipment, also can show the shape and cross-sectional slices are needed.
- Animation for education: Useful for memperjelaskan of motor coordination, in which body movements are shown in one movement and the bones of certain joints and its relationship with muscle movement, which muscles are stretched and the muscles which make interesting movement.
- Animation for entertainment and commercial: We have so many animated movies are made not just for children only, but also to society at large which can be created karaker interesting character, that each has its own character as if life is so , also to create fantasies to strengthen the visualization of a scene, and is often used also for advertising purposes in televisis (TVCommercial) (Kuswara, 2003:3).
Creating Animation Techniques
In the development up to now, there are several techniques to create animation, namely:
In the development up to now, there are several techniques to create animation, namely:
- Hand Drawn animation technique: It is a classic animation technique that relies on the ability of hand to create the image frames per frame by hand, be it a character figure drawing, as well as background images drawn by hand. After that, the image foreground and background are stacked layering for later photographed one by one, to produce a complete animation. This technique is used by Walt Disney and Warner Bros. until now, as seen in the animated film Lion King, Alladin, Beauty and the beast, etc., they have scratches that are not done by computer.
- Stop Motion animation techniques Clay Animation: Clay is another term for clay. Animation created by moving objects or dolls or model of elastic material made of clay / clay or synthetic clay. The object is moved little by little and then taken gamabrnya one by one. Once edited and compiled, Where rolls of film run, will give effect as if the doll or the model moves. Examples of animation that uses this technique is the Nightmare Before Christmas, and impressions MTV: Celebrity Death Match.
- Mechanical Hand Drawn and Computer animation: In this technique, drawing rough sketches made by hand, then was scanned and then given a color and finshing using a computer.
Actually Graphic Design
Mastery over seperfi Corel Draw graphics program, Photoshop, Freehand and others are identical with the ad creation process loaded with pictures. Even when hooked with the Hollywood film industry, a graphic designer has a great potential to appreciate as a packing effect and all smelling crap animation.
But really too simplistic to assess easily create ads only armed with a graphics program, although the ability of even a superpower! A good ad can not be seen from the good or the absence of visual forms, nor can be seen from the memorable words, or can not be solely based on whether or not a product in demand in the market. Tracing the Final Fantasy movie, what would happen if made in the film version in general? Stories that do not have the power of story telling would have collapsed into a film class B. Luckily this film was made purely by the ability of the graph and then boost the animation project rises to the seventh heaven as something amazing and the subject of conversation of many people.
Yet mastery of the same program could make the movie Finding Nemo so human, even before the movie Monsters Inc. has recalled pattern is very sympathetic. The lack of nuance futuristic style of star wars as well as theme-oriented assessments of children seems to make the film loses the aura of computer graphics to be a topic of conversation, a strong plot therapy and an uncanny ability to turn the character of the story in the packaging technology could make it as a film that is able to "talk" to the audience.
It must be recognized that technology is the only media that still requires its own creativity during application. Not to mention it takes intregrasi of several factors synergistically when we talk about the market. As with advertising, advertising is often used as bearing responsibility for the level of sales of a product. In fact, the magnetic power of a product to be able to have the execution of purchase by the consumer is the quality of the product itself, product marketing system, promotion straregi conducted and the feasibility of the price. In essence, an advertisement is only aimed at creating a condition of the market for products, not as an absolute determinant of sales.
At an advertising agency, a designer is in the department responsible for creative output, creative department name. There was a copywriter in there and there is an executor of artwork which is the last portal before the material presented to the client-the owner of the product. Proponents of these ads should be able to cooperate in making the communication pattern to place the product in consumers' minds as they should, so the involvement of the media, be it buying or Placing can not be separated.
Introductory courses are physically unable to do much in the process of creating a visual character, let alone be able to communicate. The situation is indirectly also do not educate people to be appreciative of a work, in addition to be considered great, nice and not play if it looks wow! Many people fall in love with the creation of charts via computer to forget the humanistic side of where the technology itself actually was referring to that direction. Until the end of a work is considered cheap because only with computers and ability to operate a graphics program.
If feel themselves interested in the graphics industry, it is a usual starting now not only hone technical skills, but also leads to the major subject to be carefully cultivated. This is precisely not to underestimate the technical factors, because support for maximum control of application programs that will provide an optimal implementation of the work. So, be careful, do not be quick to say the creative output is able to perform dynamic and live only in the visual sweep through creativity a little involvement especially in shallow states that a good picture format will ensure good communication.
A work need a breath to make it able to convey messages and communicate to the public that disasarnya intelligently and effective. Indeed, combining visual elements, the strength of message and communications strategy to set out in the media is not easy work. For that start to understand the application well versed Questioning the implementation of technology so as not to make superficial judgments for any condition which stems from the technology created.
