 INTRODUCTION
Animator is an artist who creates multiple images, which when displayed in rapid
sequence give an illusion of movement called animation. An Animator needs to
refer to the concept of artwork prepared by animation artists to produce asequence
of 2D or 3D images by producing multiple images called frames, which when
sequenced together rapidly create an illusion of movement.

The images can be made up of digital or hand-drawn pictures, models or puppets.

An Animator has the responsibilities of developing animation as per client
requirement and work with editors to composite the various layers of animation.

Objectives:
1. Demonstrate the knowledge of uses and applications of Animation.
2. Demonstrate the knowledge of principles of Animation
3. Demonstrate the knowledge of basics compositing
4. Demonstrate the knowledge of various features of 2D Animation
5. Demonstrate the knowledge of the concept of 3D production pipeline
6. Demonstrate the concept of bouncing balls and various other steps of animation
7. Demonstrate the knowledge of project setting and animation rendering
 Adobe Premier Pro
Adobe Premiere Pro is a timeline-based video editing software application
developed by Adobe Inc. and published as part of the Adobe Creative Cloud
licensing program. First launched in 2003, Adobe Premiere Pro is a successor of
Adobe Premiere

About Workspaces

When we work with Adobe Premier Pro, it presents a virtual workspace on the
screen. We can move windows around, close some items and open others.

To begin, start by launching Adobe Premier Pro, Click Start All Programs Adobe
Premier Pro, then click on the New Project.

Adobe video and audio applications provide a consistent, customizable

workspace. Although each application has its own set of panels (such as Tools,
Properties, Timeline, and so on), you move and group panels in the same way
across products. The main window of a program is the application window. Panels are
organized in this window in an arrangement called a workspace. The default
workspace contains groups of panels as well as panels that standalone. We can
customize a workspace by arranging panels in the layout that best suits your
working style. We can create and save several custom workspaces for different
tasks. We can drag panels to new locations, move panels into or out of a group,
place panels alongside each other, and undock a panel so that it floats in a new
window above the application window
 ACTIVITY- 1

CREATE A VIDEO USING PREMIER PRO.

To open the program, just click the Pr Logo. Once opened, click on New Project –
this will bring up a window to do the settings

Give the project a name and include a Location.

Click Okay to open up your new project.

➢ Understand the workspace

Get familiar with the tools to navigate among the workspace panels. Import video
from the computer and create the initial sequence.

➢ Start with the basics

Trim and rearrange clips in the Timeline by using the razor or trim tools. Bring audio
and add transitions.
➢ Add titles and graphics

Create onscreen titles in Premiere Pro . Stylize and animate with graphics.

➢ Expand the editing skills

Use cutting, moving, and stretching tools to the clips in the Timeline. Apply special
effects, and adjust color using the Color panel.

➢ Work with audio

Polish the soundtrack by adding transitions, adjusting levels, and using customizable
audio effects or convenient pre-sets.

➢ Export the completed video

Choose from an array of standard video formats, select the image to represent the
video.
 Adobe Audition
Adobe Audition is special software that has been designed to make editing audio
files as smooth and simple as possible. The software is an updated version of
Adobe Audition and promises a number of enhanced editing features along with
some brand new ones.

One of the great things about Adobe Audition is that the software is compatible
with a wide range of different types of audio files. The software also manages to
pack in plenty of features that allow users to edit the audio file in various different
ways such as reducing static and background noise, cutting out unwanted sections
of the file to make it smoother and even adding a series of different types of sound
effects and samples so that the flow seamlessly.

Application of Audition

• Fast cut, copy and paste functions using clip-based tools

• Unlimited undo layers in the Undo History panel provides the flexibility to
experiment without committing changes
• Audio clean up allows for detecting and fixing common flaws in audio files such
as hisses, hums, buzzing, crackling and pops
• Mix Paste feature allows two existing audio assets to be combined quickly
• Edits can be made within the display using tools similar to those in Adobe
Photoshop
 ACTIVITY- 2

AUDIO EDITING USING ADOBE AUDITION

1. Import the audio file to audition editing window

2. Reopen the waveform view by clicking and dragging the split bar downward.

3.The Effects panel is the next panel in the group. Add effects, we can essentially
creating a set of effects that are listed in this panel.
4. The zoom navigator, is located directly below the popup menu and provides a
view of the entire waveform.

5. We can use the main Editor window to zoom in on just a range of the waveform
in greater detail.

6. To zoom in or out, press the + (plus) or – (minus) keys. To return to 100%

view, click the Zoom Out Full button to the right of the zoom navigator.

7. The Set Fade In < and Set Fade Out buttons in the upper left and right corners
of the Editor window allow to set up fades at the beginning and end of the audio
clip. Click and drag the Fade In Point to the right to set up a fade in the beginning
of the .

8. At the bottom of the Editor panel is a numeric Time slider, Previous and Next
Marker buttons , Stop and Play buttons , Loop Playback , Record Open Dialog ,
Fade In and Fade Out buttons, a volume adjustment feature for the entire track ,
and a Louder button to make certain parts of the audio louder
 Autodesk Maya
Autodesk Maya, commonly shortened to just Maya, is a 3D computer graphics
application that runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, originally developed by
Alias and currently owned and developed by Autodesk. It is used to create assets
for interactive 3D applications, animated films, TV series, and visual effects

Maya animation is a powerful animation tool. These tools gives the freedom to
animate any attribute of an object and the control to successfully transform joints
and bones, IK handles, and models over time. Graph editor, trax editor and dope
sheet, these are the main animation editors in Maya. The Dope Sheet is another
animation editor in Maya that is similar to the Graph Editor. Instead of displaying
curves, the Dope Sheet displays key times as coloured rectangles and edit event
timing in blocks of key frames and synchronize motion to a sound file. Trax editor
mainly helps the animator to do nonlinear animation.
 Activity 3: Making the Ice Cream Scoops
Making the cone

1. Switch to the Poly Modeling shelf.

2. Click the Polygon Cone button on the Poly Modeling shelf.

3. Select the Rotate Tool from the Toolbox (Hotkey: E) and rotate the cone upside
down.

 Activity 4: Creating animation Using Dope sheet

The Dope Sheet is another window used for editing keyframes. With the help of
dope sheet keys can move, scale, cut, copy, paste, and delete Graph Editor. It
has the advantage of offering a simple, clear way to move the keyframes of
multiple objects in time.

make the second keyframe.

7. Select 120th frame and move the ball to upper right end of the screen. Hit S to
make the Third keyframe.
8. Open Dope sheet to see the key frames.

Select Window > Animation Editors > Dope Sheet

9. Use Scale option on the dope sheet to increase the size of ball while coming
near to the column.

10. Click play to see the animation.

realistic
6. Use 3 main key frames to complete the bounce .Set frames for contact –
highest point – contact .
7. Using the graph editor, Windows > Graph Editor, change the speed of the
ball so that it would be fastest when falling into contact before bouncing
back .
 Activity 8: Path Animation.
A path animation controls the position and rotation of an object along a curve.
To create a path animation
