Animated Cartoon Encyclopedia Article, Description, History and Biography @ AlienArtifacts.com The phenakistoscope, zoetrope and praxinoscope, as well as the common flip book, were early animation devices to produce movement in drawings using technological means, but animation did not really develop much further until the advent of motion picture film. Clay animation and other forms of stop motion filming, are not cartoons in the strict sense of the word. See Computer animation for further information of the specific technologies. www.alienartifacts.com /encyclopedia/Animated_cartoon   (1111 words)

Articles - Animation Cell animation, developed by Bray and Hurd in the 1910s, speeded up the process by using transparent overlays, so that characters could be moved without the need to repaint the background for every frame. The use of computer animation as a way of achieving the otherwise impossible in conventionally shot movies has led to the term Computer generated imagery being used, though the term has become hard to distinguish from computer animation as it is now used in refering to 3D movies that are entirely animated. Because animation is very time-consuming and often very expensive to produce, the majority of animation for TV and movies comes from professional animation studios. www.bird-center.net /articles/Animation   (781 words)

Cel-shaded animation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The first 3D video game to specifically feature cel-shaded characters among FMV backgrounds as its primary animation style was Fear Effect for the Sony PlayStation, which was released in the year 2000. The only cel-shaded games to receive both positive ratings and sales after Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus were The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Sly 2: Band of Thieves. Later in the same year, Jet Set Radio was released in Japan for the Sega Dreamcast as a completely cel-shaded game. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Cel_shading   (868 words)

The Wayfinder Experience Forums - Cel-shaded or no? In fact, a cell-shaded game is drawn by the processor of the computer/console on the fly as a "Vector" animation, in which an algorythm is used to determine edges (Note there are no grungy textures/volumetric lighting in a cell shaded game). Cel shading is used in cartoons and its when a color goes from light to dark to show shadow without using any specific boundry lines, I believe. Cel shading is probibly better if you are doing the new loony toon video game, but if you are trying to do a more elaborate game then I dont think it would be that great! wayfinderexperience.com /forums/archive/index.php/t-134.html   (868 words)

Nightly.Net: Cel shaded graphics... Cel shading uses fully 3D models (imagine a regular 3D character from a game) then the textures are flattened (kinda complicated) to make an image that looks like a cel animated character but is really 3D. About cel shading, well if your not into animation like I am I can understand how you wouldnt like it, but basically everyones complaint about it is that its kiddy, not all games have to look uber realistic. Miyamoto said that one of the biggest reasons he changed the graphics on Zelda to cel shaded graphics was that if he kept the current graphics of the game, it woul look just about like any other game on the market...i don't think so. www.nightly.net /ubb/ultimatebb.php/topic/81/9.html   (868 words)

Computer Graphics World - Part 7: Movie Retrospective For Warner's cel animation The Iron Giant, a 3D CG hero is created in Maya, rendered as a cartoon in RenderMan, and then imported into Cambridge Animation Systems' Animo. Although Looker (1981) was the first film with shaded 3D com puter graphics, Tron (1982) was the first with 15 minutes of computer animation and lots of shaded graphics. Although 3D graphics debuted in earlier Disney animations, Beauty and the Beast is the first in which hand-drawn characters appear in a 3D background. cgw.pennnet.com /Articles/Article_Display.cfm?Section=Articles&Subsection=Display&ARTICLE_ID=148548   (868 words)

Electric Playground While there are no coyotes or roadrunners in Cel Damage (though there is a dominatrix and a duck, if that counts), this first-time effort by Canadian developer Pseudo Interactive draws heavily on Looney Tunes and Hanna-Barbera animation influences in its cel-shaded ode to cartoon mayhem. Cel Damage ’s dazzling game engine and amazing visuals almost makes you wish Pseudo Interactive had decided to design some sort of action-adventure title with more story and depth instead of an overly simplistic car combat game. The gate relay is where Cel Damage really shines, and you almost wonder why Pseudo didn’t make it the primary game mode instead of Smack Attack. www.elecplay.com /reviews_article.php?article=7486   (868 words)

Cel shaded UT2k3 model request - polycount MessageBoard I hold that a REALLY fine skin can take 10 or more hours to complete, but a cartoon cel-shaded model is relatively simple, mostly one color with basic shadeing built in.

Wicked Toast - The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker review Zelda is the first cel-shaded game to fully feature every object without borders, with edges defined only by their tonal values. I had seen the Spaceworld 2000 footage of the "realistic" Zelda, and was there when they released the first cel-shaded pics. When looked at as a whole, the positives of the graphics and animation compared with its few negatives is like comparing the mass of the sun with the earth. www.wickedtoast.com /article.php?id=39   (868 words)

Super Street Online: Sly 2: Band of Thieves Sly 2 delivers across the board with a truly entertaining storyline, awesome, cel-shaded animation, and twice as much action and adventure as the previous game. When Sly Cooper and the Theivius Raccoonus made its debut two years ago, it was a huge success with its gorgeous, cel-shaded environments, clever characters, and cool action-adventure platform style of gameplay. Sly 2's very clever and entertaining storyline sends Sly, Bentley, and Murray around the world to battle and thieve their way to glory by defeating the five Klaww gang bosses. www.superstreetonline.com /plugged/games/130_0411_sly2   (529 words)

Retro/Active: Jet Grind Radio from 1UP.com Titled Jet Grind Radio in North America due to various trademark issues (that were later cleared up for the Xbox sequel, Jet Set Radio Future), Sega's-- and more specifically developer Smilebit's-- stunning vision of a future Tokyo (complete with cel-shaded Shibuya) introduced or finessed a number of stylish trend-setting features. While games like Fear Effect's animation-cel styled visual were a precursor to Jet Grind's uber-sleek cel-shading, it was Sega's motley crew of high-flying, acrobatic graffiti-punks (Beat, Gum, Corn, Combo, Cube, Garam and DJ Professor K) that defined it. Another thing that separated Jet Grind Radio's Tony-Hawk-on-steroids gameplay from the rest of the extreme-sports wannabes was its counter-culture downloadable graffiti feature. egm.1up.com /do/feature?cId=3142192   (811 words)

Gundam Evolve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The clips feature a mix of animation media which go from traditional cels to 3-D CG rendering to even cel-shaded 2-D animation. It should be noted that this Evolve's place within Gundam Wing continuity is unclear, but it appears to take place during the last story arc of the series, after White Fang captures Relena but before Doctor J dies. Gundam Evolve is a series of short films set in the different timelines of the Gundam series. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Gundam_Evolve   (1272 words)

Gamingredients - Issue 1 - History of Survival Horror Kronos' Fear Effect took the survival horror genre in a number of new, and exciting, directions.In addition to a number of gameplay tweaks (faster combat, no health, and some sequences inspiredby "Dragon's Lair") and a unique style (pre-rendered backgrounds with animation, and cel-shaded,animé-styled character models), the plot was a refreshing change. Arguably the first survival horror title to include fully 3d environments (the idea that SilentHill was the first being somewhat of a misconception), Overblood was a Resident Evil clonenotable only for its clever storyline, involving an amnesiac infected with a mysterious virus,placed inside an enormous complex sometime in the undisclosed future. The end result was a traditionalexercise in survival horror with a number of tweaks (the ability to move while shooting, a newsecurity system, and multiple paths), with its own memorable moments (the T-Rex, for one). www.gamingredients.com /features/historyofsurvhorror   (3136 words)

OtakuBoards - Your Favorite Video Game I'm guessing that you're not a fan of the cel shaded graphics, and that's all well and good, but to say that Wind Waker's animation is awful is ludicrous lol. GoldenEye was brilliant for just so many reasons, not only because the movie version had an excellent plot on which to base the game, but also because it had such amazing gameplay, you actually felt that you were James Bond when you played that game. With that in mind, though, I have a game that I generally name as my favorite game of all time; it's stayed in that position since it was first released in 1992, as a matter of fact. www.otakuboards.com /archive/index.php/t-42126.html   (5544 words)

Hands On with Sly Cooper 2: Band of Thieves > Preview Sly 2’s graphics don’t seem too different than those of the first game, featuring the same cel-shaded style and fluid animation. Bentley, a technology whiz with high-strung nerves, is the brains of the outfit, while Murray, who’s dressed himself like a comic book character and talks as though narrating his own epic tale, is the brawn. Murray doesn’t have Sly’s versatile moveset or Bentley’s weaponry, but he does have a tough skin, the ability to pick up and throw objects, and much better fighting ability, and he’ll need it too, as in the process of destroying the alarms, he’ll be attracting a considerable amount of attention to himself. web1.dignews.com /preview.php?story_id=4237   (774 words)

GZ Downloads - Robotech: Battlecry Video The stylized, cel shaded animation game spans more than 45 missions set in city ruins, canyons, the skies above Macross City, space, foreign planets and the rings of Saturn. Robotech: Battlecry, developed by Vicious Cycle, is a fast paced, third-person action shooter based on the extremely popular animated TV series. As the intense storyline unfolds, Jack battles it out with the invading Zentraedi alien armada utilizing his versatile Veritech Fighter, a giant transformable mechanized robot that can convert into a high-flying jet fighter, a 40-foot tall humanoid robot, or a hybrid unit that combines elements of both. downloads.gamezone.com /demos/d4914.htm   (145 words)

The Animatrix - The Second Renaissance Part I - Anime In this dreary-colored, cel-shaded vision from Mahiro Maeda, we get to look into the Zion Archives as historical footage of how mankind went from a happy existence to being dominated by the machines. The Second Renaissance Part I is the second animation on the Animatrix DVD, although really in a chronological sense it should be the first. Before I get into the actual story on this one, I have to say that this short was VERY heavy on the symbolism and relating the Matrix to modern day atrocities and violence. www.bellaonline.com /articles/art10532.asp   (145 words)

1UP: Bandai Delivers PS2 Cowboy Bebop Details The 3D characters are drawn in a cel-shaded style reminiscent of Capcom's PS2 Jojo's Bizarre Adventure game, contrasting with slightly more realistic environments, although the animation is curiously reminiscent of Bandai's recent PS2 Lupin the 3rd game. Bebop postulates a near future in which humanity has migrated away from Earth, moving to locales around the nearer planets of the solar system. While the Bebop TV series built towards a rather operatic conclusion, the game seems to be based on its more mundane moments. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_zd1up/is_200403/ai_ziff123199   (425 words)
