PRINCIPLES OF ANIMATION (Lucas Ridley) - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Animating on Ones, Twos, and Threes.
        Ones, twos, and threes refer to how long a single image holds on camera in relationship to frames per second. Ones mean every single frame is different, so at 24 frames per second you'll have 24 individual and unique drawings with that second.
        
        Animating on Twos makes it feel like being handmade
        => Apply "Posterize Time" effect on the object (e.g. text) in After Effects and change the Frame Rate property (12 for Twos)
      - Limited Animation
        a process in animation that doesn't redraw entire frames but reuses common parts btw frames (e.g. background)
- - - - Cause: Kinetic Energy: energy which a body possesses by virtue of being motion
        In other words, by the virtue of something moving, it has built up energy, and it takes time for that to settle to a stop or even start to create the energy.
        Because of different objects, mass, or friction and other variables, they can take longer/ shorter time to start / stop.
  - - - SPACING: The distance (spatial) btw each pose that is between each frame
- - - - Extremes: poses for the biggest and smallest motion, usually made after the story / golden poses and consist of overshoots, antics or big squashes / stretches
      - RECOMMENDED
      - Key / Story / Golden: these can be used to describe the main poses
    - - Do this after Pose to Pose
- - - - Proportions. e.g. big heads, super big arms
      - Keep it simple (dont add too much details)
      - Use a variety of shapes (for different characters)
