Stop Motion Video - The Box

Digital Animation - The Box

For this specific animation, i used a fps (which is the short abbreiviation of frames per second)/ frame rate of 16. During the structuring of this animation, the features were all designed through Adobe Flash, including the background (Sun, sky, road and stop signs). After locking the background i then managed to create the cars that are driving by, by using smooth transitions. After making sure that each and every frame was intact, I then exported the animation into a GIF file which is based on a lossless image file format which manages to support both animated and static images. The main reason why i exported this animation file under a GIF is because it is the easiest way to loop an animation on Blogger, and looping in this case will be the most effective.

Persistence Of Vision

This is a well known theory in which case an afterimage is thought to persist for almost one sixteenth of a second on the retina of the eye, and thought to be the explanation for motion perception. Persistence of vision is commonly accepted through a sort of controversial theory which simply states that the eye of a human being retains images for a small fraction which was precisely explained as one sixteenth of a second. In film and video, this phenomena is often claimed to account for our ability to perceive a sequence of frames as a continuous moving picture.
