    Stop Motion was used to create 'Shrek' and 'Ice Age.' - ProProfs

    Stop Motion was used to create 'Shrek' and 'Ice Age.'

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because stop motion was not used to create 'Shrek' and 'Ice Age.' These movies were created using computer animation techniques, specifically CGI (computer-generated imagery). Stop motion involves physically manipulating objects and taking individual frames to create the illusion of movement, whereas CGI involves creating digital images and animating them using computer software.

    Stop animation (stop motion) is a very modern form of animation.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Stop animation, also known as stop motion, is not a modern form of animation. In fact, it is one of the oldest animation techniques that has been used since the early days of cinema. Stop animation involves capturing a series of still images, with slight changes in each frame, and then playing them in sequence to create the illusion of movement. 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.

    In traditional cel animation, what does the 'in-between' artist do?

    • Makes the tea between breaks

    • Draws or paints the background

    • Draws all the intermediate frames between keyframes

    • Decides the timing of the animation

    Correct Answer
    A. Draws all the intermediate frames between keyframes
    Explanation
    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.

    Claymation is the correct answer because it refers to a form of stop motion animation that involves using pliable material, typically clay, to create movement. This technique involves taking a series of photographs with small adjustments made to the clay model between each shot, giving the illusion of movement when the images are played back in sequence.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    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.

    No animated film has ever won 'Best Picture' at the Oscars. - ProProfs

    No animated film has ever won 'Best Picture' at the Oscars.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because no animated film has ever won the prestigious "Best Picture" award at the Oscars. While animated films have been recognized in other categories, such as Best Animated Feature, none have been deemed worthy of the top honor. This may be due to biases towards live-action films or a perceived distinction between animation and live-action storytelling. Nonetheless, it remains a fact that no animated film has ever won Best Picture at the Oscars.
