Drawn animation
drawn animation is drawings just one after another but slightly different from the other. drawn animation is made up by thousands of different drawings and just played quickly one right after another.
cut-out animation
cut-out animation is any form of animation where cut out shapes are just moved around to the way you want them or replaced by other cut-outs.
Model animation or stop motion animation
this is filmed by using puppets, clay models, plasticine or even wire. the models are positioned to the way the are to be used in the film and filmed then repositioned and then filmed and just done over and over till the animation is done.
Computer animation
computer animation is drawings of three dimensional models and then put on to a computer. these can be put on to a computer by scanning the images. the wired framed models are scanned in to the computer as wire frame models but can be built up to the way you want them designed.
Computer generated imagery (CGI)
this is all done on the computer and very similer to computer animation.

thaumatrope 1824

zoetrope 1834

this is just an improvment of the zoetrope, by replacing the slits with an inner circle of mirrors.
flip book 1886
flip book is a series of similer pictures on one part of paper to another that when you flip the paper really fast from one page to another an animation appears.

photo sharing


these are two photo sharing sites that are quit similer but i would say that flickr is a lot better to use as it has more photos and more things to do like crop,edit and fix your pictures,share and stay in touch. you can also upload videos on flickr. there is also a few good points about picasa as you can still upload your pictures and share them to. flickr is just alot more up to date.

shortcut to grab
A quick alternative to using Grab is to use your keyboard shortcuts. This gives you less control, though is much quicker and easier.
Hold down the Command+Shift+4 buttons and then the Space Bar will let you capture things like a window, widget, menu or icon and save it as a file to your desktop.
