12 Basic Principles of Animation

Squash and Stretch

This gives weight and flexibility to an object or subject. As the point details, the object or subject squashes and stretches to create a sense of realism with muscles or bouncing balls or a number of other things. It is important in realistic animation that the volume of the object or subject doesn't change.

Anticipation

Anticipation is used to prepare the audience for an action, and to make the action appear more realistic. Before a ballet dancer jumps off the ground, she must first bend her knees in preparation and before a clarinetist blows into his instrument, he must first breath in. The technique can also be used for less physical actions, such as a character looking off-screen to anticipate someones arrival, or attention focusing on an object that a character is about to pick up.

Slogans and Advertising

So toady we talked about different types of advertising with slogans as our main point of focus.

Three slogans that I find that stick in my mind are:

"Oh what a feeling, Toyota!"

"Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline."

"McDonald's, I'm Lovin' it!"

The reason why I like these slogans is because they are all catchy, memorable and try to sell their company 's produce in a positive light.

The Toyota slogan is memorable because it uses a little bit of alliteration within the "Oh" and "Toyota". It also puts the produce in a positive light with "Oh what a feeling".

The Maybelline  slogan is memorable because it uses repetition within the "maybe". It also puts the produce in a positive light by implying that it will give the wear a naturally beautiful complexion with "Maybe she's born with it".

The McDonald's slogan is memorable because it is short and because the company is able to pump out tones of McDonald's adds a day, allowing the slogan to stick in people's minds. It also puts the produce in a positive light by telling the possible customers that the food is good with "I'm lovin' it".
