Animation

Animation is the process of creating the illusion of motion by displaying a series of individual images, or frames, in rapid succession. These images can be hand-drawn or created using computer graphics, and when played at a consistent speed, they generate the perception of movement, giving life to characters and scenes. The term encompasses various techniques and styles, including traditional 2D animation, 3D animation, stop-motion, and digital animation.

Animation is used in various mediums, such as films, television shows, video games, and online content, and serves to entertain, inform, and engage audiences. It can convey complex narratives and emotions in ways that live action may not be able to achieve. The artistic quality, storytelling, and creativity involved in animation contribute to its appeal across different age groups and cultures.
