This technique has been used in classic films such as "King Kong" (1933) and "The Nightmare Before Christmas" (1993), proving that it is not a modern form of animation.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Draws all the intermediate frames between keyframesExplanation
The 'in-between' artist in traditional cel animation is responsible for drawing all the intermediate frames between keyframes. Keyframes are the main poses or important moments in an animation, and the in-between frames help to create the illusion of movement by filling in the gaps between the keyframes. This process requires the artist to carefully and accurately draw each frame to maintain the smoothness and continuity of the animation.Rate this question:

This series of photos stand as one of the earliest forms of videography.He proved that horses have at least one foot on the ground at a gallop.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
Edward Muybridge's series of still photos in 1873 were not the earliest forms of videography, but rather one of the earliest forms of motion capture. These photos were taken in quick succession to capture the different stages of a horse's gallop. Muybridge's photos showed that there is indeed a moment when all four of a horse's feet are off the ground during a gallop, debunking the belief that at least one foot remains on the ground at all times. Therefore, the statement "He proved that horses have at least one foot on the ground at a gallop" is false.Rate this question:
