Animation films are basically made with the help of 3D animation. 3D animation referred as three-dimensional images created as frames. These frames are made individually and by various ways like computers, photographing, painted images etc. When these image frames are arranged in continue regular manner, it creates a motion picture. These sequential frames generate an illusion of moving picture. Also by doing small changes in model components and catching this in special animated camera, animation is made. In this process computer plays a vital role because computer help to give a live images and graphics. In advance computers provide software to simplify doing 2D and 3D animation. Animation is a moving art which run individual frames one after another which help to create a persistent vision. So computer software can form a frame area to arrange frames, compiled it and create compact files which run frames sequentially to show a animated moving picture.

In many animated movies different characters or objects are used. So to make animated movie every one have knowledge about Kinematics. Kinematics is a property of motion related to time like acceleration, position, velocity. Also kinematics is not depending on the related forces which produce the motion. Articulated figure, effectors, geometric, physical dimension, behavior of frames and Motion Control Methods (MCM) these are necessary to study. Forward kinematics system is set the motion of joints of characters explicitly by animator i.e. animator set the shoulder, arms, elbow, fore arm, hand, eye and lips. In Inverse kinematics system animator set the end effecter and the system computer make related moves.

As we see the history of Animation pictures, at that time normal pictures were photographed to make a short clip. This process was so long and thousands of images were used for a single minute of short film. But now a time the animation industry invent easier and better ways Therefore, animation movies are easily made using 2D and 3D images at the home.

So simple steps to make an animated movie:

  1. Figure out fair theme for your movie.
  2. Imagine characters needed in film as per the theme subject like comedy or action.
  3. Create a story board with your rough drawing to develop the plot.
  4. Lay out your script to create like characters. So write your script with all details and small counts. Write dialogues effectively.
  5. Now create a profile for your character.
  6. Decide technique to animate the movie and go for it.

In this way any one can make their own animated movie. There are two ways of animation techniques:  Flipbooks and traditional method. Flipbook is cost effective but not featured effective. While traditional animation is costly and time consuming but gives good quality. Once movie is completed editing is started to come up with a good errorless product. Now a movie is ready to come in market.

We all love animated movies. Some think they’re just for kids, but really – people of all ages can watch them, because underneath all that childish banter, there are important messages for everyone. And hey, everyone likes animation, right? We tell you the top ten animated movies.

  1. Toy Story – This was the first movie to have full computer generated animation. Even though techniques have come of age now, this movie is surprisingly complex in its effects. With lots of humor and a great storyline, you should watch this one, definitely.
  2. Ratatouille – From Brad Bird comes a delightfully fresh animated movie, with the theme of cooking, and following your dreams. The voicing is great, Pixar’s animation is wonderful, and of course – all the cooking is bound to get you hungry! Peter O’ Toole is magnificent as the food critic who changes his opinions.
  3. The Prince Of Egypt – With a Biblical theme, this is one movie all kids should watch. Learn about the life of Moses, and his relationship with Pharaoh. The dream sequence is really mention-worthy.
  4. Ice Age – Great storyline, extremely funny moments, and Ray Romano is simply amazing! Check out the sloth for some funny moments.
  5. Shrek – The whole series, in fact. Not just children’s movies, but adults should watch them too. Not only is the animation great, but the plotline is gripping, and inverts the usual “happily ever after” fairytale. Mike Myers and Cameron Diaz are simply stunning in their voicing, and the supporting cast do a great job as well. Plus, the songs are great!
  6. Finding Nemo – One of the great movies by Pixar. Watch Marlin try to frantically hunt his son Nemo down. And you’re bound to fall in love with Dory, a very forgetful but extremely cute fish.
  7. Bambi – Sweet, wonderful, endearing – these qualities best describe the movie. A favorite with kids everywhere.
  8. Antz – As much an adults’ movie as a kids’ movie. You need to understand Communism and Marxism for this one. It’s satire of an animated sort. Woody Allen’s voicing totally hits the mark.
  9. The Lion King – A pretty old movie, but the animation is great, the songs are bound to get your feet tapping, and your kids will love it!
  10. A Bug’s Life – Another well-known classic. Watch it for the sheer feel-good factor. Not a movie to miss.
