Mini Lesson 1: Flip-Its
The wait is over, behold my first mini lesson! In this lesson I show how to make a simple two frame animation known as a “flip=it.” Making this video was itself a learning experience – I expect the quality of these to improve with time.File size: 1.9 MB
Length: 3:32
(The iPod version will be posted soon)More Resources:
- The History of Animation – Incomplete, yet detailed.
- History of Animation: Before Disney – A short illustrated article with some very useful vocabulary. I recommend you do google searches for the words “thaumatrope,” “phenakistoscope,” and “zeotrope.”
- Jack and Beverly’s Persistence of Vision – Lots of pictures of collectibles that use the principle of “persistence of vision” to create the illusion of movement.
- ZOOM . printables . activities | PBS Kids – A variety of cool activities saved as .pdf files, including more than one animation project in the “Five Senses” section.
