Computer animation is created by two-dimensional or three-dimensional computer graphics. Two-dimensional computer animation is used for fast rendering and for low-bandwidth animation. In the cartoon, the computer to be used and the film that is the image generated by the computer are considered. This is a concern especially when making a movie. To create movement in a model, the photo is placed on the computer monitor screen used and then changed to a slightly offset image that looks the same as before. This method is used to make movies to project movement that is an illusion of how it is with reality.
All computer-animated objects use different computer programs for the detailed representation of the characters in the film. A big challenge for animators is to render a realistic image of humans using computer animation. Computer animated movies today are mostly animal or fantasy models and sometimes cartoon-like humans. There are many attempts at computer generated movies to make human characters look real. This can be seen in movies like “The Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.” But due to the complexity of replicating the human body, movement, and biomechanics, simulating real humans is still a big problem.
It was planned to make a software program in which the artist will create a sequence on film showing a photo of a realistic human model, going through some believable movements. Clothing and physical attributes of a real human being, such as hair, are included when making the realistic human photo. The animator’s goal is also to put a complex but natural looking background and, if possible, they aim to create realistic characters that blend together and form a realistic whole. The artists try to do this in such a way that people watching do not think that a movie is computer generated or made with the participation of the actors acting in front of the camera. This plan to simulate real human characters will definitely not happen in the near future. However, a concept like making people realistic may influence the film industry and computer animation for future developments.
Computer and television game animators are making animations using photorealistic design with a high level of detail. The quality of computer animation used to make movies would take many years to achieve if only a personal computer was used. To make photorealistic design possible, high-quality and powerful computer workstations are used. The workstations used to make computer animations are specialized in rendering the images to obtain a smooth and realistic output of the cartoon.
