An example is JRS Finally finished with the shot posting. I am very appreciative of the work of many Pencil2D hand animators. All I ask is can we not fall out about whether we use vector or Pixel and just get on and produce good animation. In the early days of computer animation, we didn’t have a choice, but now animators do. I don’t think vectors and Pixel graphics are in opposition, but they can work together to create the desired look.
It also depends on how large the image is on screen, if it tiny then such an image works too. Sometimes its a stylistic decision and in others it’s forced on you by the display or memory constraints. Sometimes this doesn’t matter, if the images is displayed for a single frame. This can in some cases spoil the illusion that your attempting to create, but in others enhance it.
The major problem with Pixel based storage is that when you zoom in, there is a danger of the individual Pixels becoming visible, like in the first of your two images. Only at the very last moment are the vectors converted into Pixel information, because the displays are Pixel mapped. These are usually manipulated in matrix format. In vector graphics, the information is stored in lines and fills. In some respects the two terms are interchangeable. Pixel and raster are both methods of storing and using graphical information based on a Pixels, they’re colour and position. I wad a day release student at the time.Ī totally different time, in animation to what we have today!

I later brought a copy of AutoDesk Animator, a package written by Gost, which I used on my home PC and PC’s at college. When drawing the animation, in monochrome, we were sharing the computer with the Accounts Dept, Personnel, etc, we only had it to ourselves overnight. This was the first time we saw our work in colour. The technicians transfered these to video tape, so we could check the animation.
The scenes were rendered, in batch mode running overnight into video format. There were other lines, we called hatching, to indicate a solid shape. Most animator, who had access to computers used monochrome graphics displays, that displayed the drawings in ‘wire frame mode’ with a colour number inside. The images were held as text files, Pencil2D vec files are a much more advanced format, but the basic idea is the same. The edges of shapes had a limit on the number of the lines which could be used to compose them. Definitely no Pixels.Ĭurves were composed of a collection of short straight lines. The line were straight lines, no arcs or splines. Pixel based animation wasn’t possible because of the memory constraints, but also because of the lack of processing power. The computers in the 1980’s had only 64k bytes of memory and ran much slower than modern computers. If you don’t want the artwork to be critiqued say it clearly on the first post.įor now my honest recommendation is that If you are satisfied with how your way of doing animation works for yourself, then keep doing just that and focus on your own creative findings. It’s also their choice to invite people to critique the work in the opening post. One can choose to ignore it, discuss it, accept it or reject it, but obviously each choice will need justification, no matter how minimal.Īs it stands It’s really up to the thread owner to decide if they want to discuss or not a topic.
Personal experience and opinions might not be necessarily accepted by other animators they might even disagree with an entire process, and it’s their opinion. We hope you understand that your recent experience doesn’t necessarily mean that every time you post something, you will obtain a certain kind of negative response. Regarding the past situation, we’ve addressed most of it in the closing reply of the last thread I moved your thread from the # your-stuff category which is generally meant for sharing ARTWORK, to the # misc category which can be used as an OFF-TOPIC section of sorts more suited for these kind of discussions.
