    The Process of Animation

    Uploaded by

    Mary Josephine de Jesus
    The traditional animation process involves 6 key steps: 1) creating a story sketch, 2) developing a storyboard, 3) recording audio, 4) breaking down the audio track, 5) designing characters, and 6) creating a story reel. The storyboard graphically depicts the story, recordings are used to time the animation, track breakdown analyzes the audio phonetically, character designs are drawn from multiple angles, and the story reel synchronizes rough animation with sound.

    THE PROCESS OF

    ANIMATION
    THE TRADITIONAL ANIMATION
    PROCESS
    1. Story Sketch
    • It is the first and the most important stage.
    • It is also called the film script but it differs from the live-action film script as dialog is less
    important and complicated dialog should be avoided as much as possible.
    • The story sketch should show characters, attitudes, feelings, entertainment, expressions, type
    of action, as well as telling the story of what is happening.
    THE TRADITIONAL ANIMATION
    PROCESS
    2. Story board – this is the stage where the director produces the storyboard.
    • It is a series of drawn images that graphically portrays the action described in the script.
    • When a director works on the storyboard, deficiencies in the structure and format of the
    story are detected and corrected.
    • The director makes decisions but is aided by his layout man, supervising animators, and
    possibly, the story sketch man stand by to quickly make changes when needed.

    PROCESS
    3. Recording
    • Animation relies totally on perfect synchronization of the picture to the soundtrack, the
    animator must receive the initial recorded track before beginning to draw.
    • The animator will not be able to time the action accurately without the soundtrack.
    THE TRADITIONAL ANIMATION
    PROCESS
    4. Track Breakdown
    • After the soundtrack has been made, an editor assembles it into the precise working length
    of the film and then breaks down the track.
    • A cartoon cutter’s job is concerned with keeping, marking, and storing all of the simplest
    film with four tracks: two dialogs, sound effects, and music.
    • The breakdown is a simple process of analyzing the dialog phonetically (by sound) and
    documenting the precise position of each sound in relation to the films frames.
    THE TRADITIONAL ANIMATION
    PROCESS
    5. Designs
    • During the track break down, the director selects one or more file designers to produced
    visual interpretations of all the characters featured in the film.
    • After approval, each character is drawn from multitude of angles and placed on a single
    sheet of paper called the model sheet.
    THE TRADITIONAL ANIMATION
    PROCESS
    6. Story Reel
    Under the supervision of the director and using the bar sheets and storyboard, the layout artist
    proceeds with the story reel of the whole film. In traditional animation, a Leica reel produced.
    • A Leica reel or animatic is a filmed storyboard, which can be projected in synchronizations
    with the final soundtrack.
