Animation Worksheet: Part 1 Test

Animation and design lesson 8: Part 1 test: animation · Set 109 · 40 questions

Creator's tip (Find the topic, use the idea): Find the topic: moving pictures, fps, flipbooks, keyframes, stop motion, principles or storyboards. Use that lesson’s rule — frames = seconds × fps; in-betweens = b − a − 1; photos = seconds × photos per second. For principles, ask: is it getting ready, bending, keeping on moving, easing, curving or about the number of frames?

23. 23.🔍 Which is the odd one out? (a) arm pulls back to throw (b) more frames near stops (c) crouch before a jump (d) a breath before a shout
24. 24.📋 A storyboard has 7 panels and each panel stands for 2 seconds of film. How long is the film (in seconds)?
25. 25.🎞️ What is an animation made of? (a) one big painting (b) only sound (c) a single photo (d) many still pictures
26. 26.🎬 An animation at 30 fps runs for 3 minutes. How many frames does it have?
27. 27.🎬 The same movement is played at 25 fps and at 24 fps. Which looks smoother? (a) 25 fps (b) 24 fps

29. 29.🔑 When an animation app draws the in-betweens for you, it is called … (a) tweening (b) zooming (c) cropping (d) squashing
30. 30.🔑 More in-betweens between two keyframes make the move … (a) brighter (b) louder (c) slower and smoother (d) faster and jumpier
