Difference Between 2D Animation and 3D Animation
The difference between 2d animation and 3d animation are thus detailed below:
Visual Experience: In terms of the visual experience, 2D animation is comparatively unrealistic and deals in a 2-dimensional space, only catering to length and width.
In 3D, the visuals created are defined in 3-dimensions- Length, Width, and Height. This gives them a realistic feel and helps create depth perception within 3D animation.
Platform: 2D animation is done using traditional drawing methods. Artists either sketch using a pencil or digitally draw out their characters and their movement frame by frame.
On the other hand, 3D animation is completely done using computer software. It involves several steps that we’ve discussed above, such as modeling, rigging, and texturing.
Use Cases: 2D animation is used in cartoons, but in the 21stcentury makes up the vast majority of social media video content such as infotainment videos, product demos, explainer videos, and animated whiteboard videos.
3D animation is a high-end art and is utilized for movies, cartoons, and more prominently in video games that rely on creating realistic visual experiences.
Transformation
Transformation is the process of modifying and re-positioning the existing graphics by using rules. We have different types of transformations such as Translation, Scaling, Rotation, Reflection, etc. When we modify 2D objects or apply a transformation on 2D objects, it is called 2D transformation.
Transformation is used to change the size, shape, position, orientation, etc of the object. We will see about 2d transformation and types of 2d transformation in details.
