th

11. This was the first widespread animation device that created a fluid illusion of motion.
a. Phenakistoscope b. Thaumatrope c. Zoetrope d. Praxinoscope
12. It was an animation device, the successor to the zoetrope. It was invented in France in 1877 by Charles-Émile Reynaud. Like the zoetrope, it
used a strip of pictures placed around the inner surface of a spinning cylinder
a. Phenakistoscope b. Thaumatrope c. Zoetrope d. Praxinoscope
13. It is considered as the classic projector which uses simple lamp and translucent oil painting which projects larger image on a flat surface.
a. Lightbox b. Magic Lantern c. Zoetrope d. Praxinoscope
14. It is considered as the most important of the 12 principles in animation
a. The Squash and Stretch b. Anticipation c. Staging d. Straight ahead action and pose to pose
15. This helps to prepare the viewer for what’s about to happen. When applied, it has the effect of making the object’s action more realistic.
a. Staging b. Arc c. Timing d. Anticipation
16. In this principle, you should use motion to guide the viewer’s eye and draw attention to what’s important within the scene.
a. Timing b. Staging c. Anticipation d. Arc
17. With this technique, you draw the beginning frame, the end frame, and a few key frames in-between. This technique gives you a bit more
control within the scene and allows you to increase the dramatic effect of the motion
a. Straight ahead action b. Follow through and c. Slow in and Slow out d. Arc
and pose to pose overlapping action
18. When the main body of the character stops all other parts continue to catch up to the main mass of the character, such as arms, long hair,
 clothing, coat tails or a dress, floppy ears or a long tail (these follow the path of action)
a. Anticipation b. Arc c. Follow through and overlapping action d. Secondary Action
19. As action starts, we have more drawings near the starting pose, one or two in the middle, and more drawings near the next pose. Fewer
drawings make the action faster and more drawings make the action slower. It softens the action, making it more life-like. This will give more
snap to the scene.
a. Exaggeration b. Slow in & Slow out c. Appeal d. Timing
20. All actions, with few exceptions, follow an arc or slightly circular path. This is especially true of the human figure and the action of animals. This
gives animation a more natural action and better flow.
a. Arc b. Slow in and Slow out c. Timing d. Secondary Action
21. This action adds to and enriches the main action and adds more dimension to the character animation, supplementing and/or re-enforcing the
main action.
a. Slow in and out b. Timing c. Secondary Action d. Arc
22. It is not extreme distortion of a drawing or extremely broad, violent action all the time. It’s like a caricature of facial features, expressions, poses,
attitudes and actions.
a. Appeal b. Exaggeration c. Staging d. Anticipation
23. All characters have to have appeal whether they are heroic, villainous, comic or cute. This principle includes an easy to read design, clear
