two old ways of animation are: THAUMATROPE(1824) a thamatrope is a piece of card atached to two peices of string the card has diferent images on each side but the images are related i.e a bird and a bird cage the string is then spun and makes the images seem to merge together and move.
FLIP BOOK(1868) flip books were another step to bring us closer to modern day animation they way they work is the same image is drawn on every page but slighty diferent so that wen we flip the pages together reallyfast we get the images moving .
the two contemapary forms of animation are: 2D animation is whearwhear figures are created using 2d bitmap graphics to create and edit charecters it uses computer added methods of old versions of animation.
3D animation is whear it uses advanced rendering to create textures etc to create the feeling that u are actually in the animation.
The diferences beetween early and contempory animation is tht technolagy has changed so much that we are able to use more advanced ways of animition and produce so much higher qaulity in the animation itself there is also more funding for animations.
My favroute animation is avatar purley for the fact tht the cameras used in avatar were developed for that film it is the best animation i have ever seen .
