C. Traditional Animation
Movies and television shows made with traditional animation are also called cartoons. Teams
of artists create them one picture at a time.
Thousands of drawings are needed for only a few minutes of animation. Each drawing is a bit
different from the one before it. For example, to show a character walking, the first drawing
might show the character with both feet on the ground. The next drawing might show the knee
with a tiny bend and the foot slightly off the ground. In the third drawing, the knee might be bent
more and the foot might be a little farther off the ground, and so on.
To save work and time, artists paint or draw the moving parts of a scene on sheets of clear
plastic film. They place a drawing of the parts of the scene that do not move under the clear film.
In this way they do not need to redraw the background in every picture.
Then filmmakers use a special camera to take a picture of each drawing on its background.
Each of these pictures is called a frame. The camera records the frames one after another on long
strips of film. To make the images move smoothly, twenty-four frames are needed for every
second of film.
Filmmakers can also create animation with figures made of clay or other materials. Instead of
drawing thousands of images, they take many photographs of figures set up in a scene. They
move the figures slightly between each photograph.
25. According to the text, a few minutes of animated movies are made from of drawings.
A. one B. some C. not so many D. thousands
26. The example mentioned in the text is about a character .
A. drawing B. walking C. bending D. running
27. The artists might use to save time and not to redraw the background.
A. photos B. sheets of paper C. clear plastic film D. special camera
28. How many frames are needed for every second of film?
A. 24 B. 42 C. 14 D. 40
