Animation

🎮 Animation and Gaming

Animation is the process of creating the illusion of movement by displaying a sequence of images or frames. These images can be drawn, computer-generated, or real-life photographs (as in stop-motion).

When shown quickly—typically 24 to 60 frames per second—our brains perceive them as smooth motion.
