5. STOP MOTION
Understand animation techniques
Describe purpose & use of each
When this type of
animation
is
done
properly it can look as
realistic as a video.
Stop motion requires
you to take a photo
for every frame of the
animation.
The more photographs
you take the better
the appearance of the
final animation.

have to be repeated when
you needed part of a scene
again in future.
