- Object animation
Refimprove date September 2009 Object animation is a form of stop motion animation that involves the animated movements of any non drawn objects such as toys, blocks, doll s, etc. which are not fully malleable , such as plasticine clay or wax , and not designed to look like a recognizable human or animal character. Object animation is considered a different form of animation distinct from model animation and puppet animation , as these two forms of stop motion animation usually use recognizable characters as their subjects, rather than just objects like static toy soldiers, or construction toys such as Tinkertoys Tinker Toys , LEGO brand bricks Brickfilm , Lincoln Logs , erector set Erector Sets , Playmobil , etc. Object animation is often combined with other forms of animation, usually for a more realistic effect e.g., Model Animation or Puppet Animation to add more complex movement or depth to the characters . For example A model car toy car can be animated, but is more often animated with a character easily seen driving the car. The use of animated objects in film has been present since the early days of cinema. ref citebook last Musser first Charles title The Emergence of Cinema publisher University of California Press year 1994 isbn 0520085337 page 471 ref An example of modern object animation can be seen on Robot Chicken , part of the regular Adult Swim block on Cartoon Network , which combines object animation with a variation of model animation puppet animation , in this case the puppets are made to resemble plastic action figures from various TV shows , film movies , and pop culture .

- Animation stand
Unreferenced date December 2009 Image aerialimagecamera.jpg thumb 150px An animation stand with a 35 mm animation camera camera . An animation stand is a device assembled for the filming of any kind of animation that is placed on a flat surface, including cel animation , graphic animation , clay animation , and silhouette animation . Traditionally, the flat surface that the animation rests on is some kind of table that the animator sits at. Pegs made specifically for animation are embedded into the table, in at least two slots allowing the pegs to slide from side to side, permitting horizontal movement of images, but can also be easily fixed into position for the accurate positioning registration of the artwork. Opposite the animator is a series of supporting arms and supports, on top of which is mounted a film or video camera, pointing down toward the artwork, which films the artwork, frame by frame, as it is slowly moved and changed by the operator. The vertical positioning of the animation camera , always shooting down, is the main component that defines an animation stand, as opposed to a stop motion set up, or other equipment arrangements for animation production. Animation stands can be home made, from metal or wood, such as that owned by Los Angeles animator Mike Jittlov , and still accomplish impressive animation production or they can be elaborate and expensive professionally made precision systems that allow for the computerised movements of both the art and the camera, as has been traditionally used by professional animation studios and special effects facilities such as the Walt Disney studio famous for their Multiplane camera and George Lucas s Industrial Light & Magic ILM facilities.

- Blocking (animation)
Unreferenced date January 2007 Blocking is an animation technique in which key Pose computer vision poses are created to establish timing and placement of characters and Theatrical property prop s in a given scene or shot. Blocking is most commonly used in 3D computer graphics 3D computer animation. Blocking is often the first step in the pose to pose style of animating, as opposed to the straight ahead style of animation though blocking sometimes plays a role in straight ahead as well. Blocking poses are not necessarily exclusively keyframe s. Blocked in poses may also include important in betweens, extremes, and breakdowns necessary to establishing the flow and timing of a particular shot. In 3D, the animation curves of a blocked shot are often created using stepped or square tangencies, which provides no interpolation between animation poses. This allows the animator to see the poses of the animation without any strange and or unintentional automatic interpolation. While this is sometimes problematic due to gimbal lock , seeing the poses in this way allows the animator to adjust the timing of an animation quickly, without the distraction of the software s automatic interpolation.
