2D and 3D Animation: Which One is Better

2D animation and 3D animation are two different kinds of
animation, each has its own advantages, of course, each has its own
shortcomings. Some people believe that 3D animation is certainly
better than the 2D animation. In fact, this statement is incorrect.
Here, we will learn some basic 2D animation and 3D animation, and
some of the main 2D animation and 3D animation tools.

What
is a 2D animation?
There is a story like this: a computer company's staff
visited a computer goods exhibition, he walked into a
manufacturer's booth, whose 2D animation software is well done, but
the computer staff seriously asked the software maker: "Is your
software 2D? If I can get 3D, why I use 2D?"
There are many answers to this question. Like video and film,
2D animation on the Web is much more than 3D animation. 2D
animation of the richness of the heritage of artists of genius and
the genius cartoon character accumulated over 80 years. By
comparison, the 3D animation only by desktop computer users for
about 10 years, there are hundreds of cell animation feature films,
short films and long cartoons thousands. So you don't need to
convert
2D to 3D deliberately.
A comparison of 2D and 3D

3D
is not necessarily better than 2D, but a some fresh, they attract
the attention of many software developers, these people are kind of
the charm of the Hollywood-style special effects attracted. There
is no doubt that the art of 3D animation is not yet fully
developed, the vast majority of users, it is just a science instead
of art. Compared with the 3D animation, cell animation easy to
understand, in many ways easier to accomplish, but in fact, it
relies on the talents of the artist's grasp of traditional painting
techniques, and rarely relied on the computer.
However, 2D animation is not the Middle Ages in Europe to
develop not just a sketch school students set up. It includes the
art of composition similar to the unit animation respectable and
familiar, but it also includes modern, sometimes surreal things,
the synthesis of digital timeline, rotation, transitions and
special effects, has become a television and animation the main
pillars of the film, is also a pillar of the Web. Digital video
editing tool itself is a powerful animation tools, 2D computer
animation technology allows only basic graphic design techniques to
do the animation is also easy.
Even in the animation studio such as Disney have a longer
history, the computer is now the scene of an important part of
almost filmmaking each step should be used, and 3D artists in any
case must at the same time master digital 2D animation tool, the
fact, is an artist of 3D movies or TV image into a 2D animation
tools and technology portfolio, so that it can form a scene. For
example, in the movie "Titanic", the magic of movie special effects
is the use of 3D animation, these 3D animation is the use of the
synthesis of 2D animation tool for vivid 2D movies, making it look
very realistic. But for some people, they may feel uncomfortable
for watching 3D movies, so it is need to
covert 3D
to 2D video.

In this regard, it makes the unit animation art and digital
synthesis technology combine to become more meaningful. Unit
animators might say they are not a computer artist, and computer
animation designers will argue that they are not cell animation
designer, but learn from each other in modern society, each
discipline, the best animators as the translator between the
digital and analog data modem, be able to understand two aspects of
the use of technology, along the two directions of processing
pictures.
Although some of the tools mentioned here are the high-end
professional tools used for animation and film design, but in fact
any tool for video and film services can also be used in Web
animation, but you might want to right ratio, timing and image
quality for adjustment and coordination, tools and techniques do
not have to be changed.
