Hello, my name is Austin and my OBP presentation topic was on the evolution of animation from cave paintings to CGI. Animation in the stone age. I guarantee some of you have heard or attempted animation before. And animation actually dates back much farther than you think. All the way back to caveman when they were still learning how to paint and um just art in general. This is a spinning bowl made by the Shakata clan later in 3000 BC with um which was the first ever animation of five frames of a deer jumping. Now you may be wondering where did the caveman get these art supplies and where did it come from? Well, it came from the ancient pink paint pigments which can be broken down into dyes like matter which can then be broken down into and perarin which each date back all the way to threshold 3 of the or project 13.5 billion years ago in what new chemical elements and then there's charcoal which could be broken down into carbon which could then be broken down into six protons six neutrons and six electrons all the way back to threshold one the big bang of the or project then there was um the um medieval animation, the magic lantern. In6003, the Dutch scientist Christian Hughes found out that if you were to place a piece of paper over a light source, over a piece of glass, under a piece of glass, it would create a projector of sorts, allowing one to, as shown in the photo, display their um photos and work as a slideshow of sorts onto the walls. There was then the spinning animation, the Zotro. In 1834, the British physician John Arden Paris um created the Zotro. Think of it this way as throwing a baseball. You have your arm wound back. You have you about to throw the ball and you throwing the ball and your arm coming down. Break it into 25 or so pieces and put it on a board. You would then be able to spin the board and it would show your animation of you throwing the baseball. There was then in 1868 the English printer John Spawn Lette created the kenograph which he patented later in the year as the moving picture book. It was uh the kinograph is now more commonly known today as the flip book where this was one of the first anim flip books of a horse. The praxinoscope. The prainoscope has been referred to many times as an upgraded version of the Zotrope as for you have your images on the side like the Zotrope and you'd have mirrors on the inside where when you were to spin the outside the images would spin allowing you to see the animation inside of the mirrors. It was created in 1877 by Charles Amir Ginhard. This was one of the first digital animations ever by John Whitney who partnered up with Saul Bass. It was created in the late 1850s and was the first computer animation. John Whitney's partner Saul Bass also took up digital animation creating Vertigo. Vertigo was used as a 3minute long opening segment and a spy movie later in the 1950s which was one of the first animations to ever be publicly displayed on television. Animation later split animation later split up um throughout the world with mainstream companies such as Disney and Pixar allowing uh entertainment throughout the world. Uh places such as Japan taking over anime and companies such as Blender and Procreate allowing the modern everyday man to allow allowing them to um do animation and draw. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. [Music] really. So, you mentioned like the zoat trope. I've seen like other things do it. Isn't there like where you flash the like strobe light on it or something? that was used for some forms of the zorotrope, but the just the normal zorotrope could be used like that. But it was some people did use stro lights with it. Roman, how long does it take people to make a flip book? Uh, it depends on what type of flip book you're doing. Like if you're going for just stickman, it doesn't take that long. But uh some flip books have taken like a year to make, especially some of the first flip books when they were still discovering how to do it. Eden, um did do you make books? Miss Heather, where do you see what's kind of the future of animation? Where's it going? Uh, animation right now, I think it'll stay the same for a while, but eventually become like a thing in everyday life, especially with AI now getting more advanced every day with them now knowing how to draw. Um, what made you like choose your topic? Uh, I really like art and I've attempted animation before and I thought it would be a pretty interesting topic to choose. Oh, what's your favorite like animation style? Uh, I really like anime, but I also I just like animation in general. I like a lot of, but probably anime is my favorite. All right. Well, Austin, generally I will have questions for you, but people ask my questions about why you chose your topic and I was going to ask you about the future of human animation and AI, but you folded that into one of your answers. So, Owen has one. So, after Owens, we'll close out. What are the chemical elements of animation? I already wrote that down. pink paint pigment being broken down into um dioic matter which break down into alpha and fiberin back to threshold three and charcoal breaking down into carbon down to six neutrons six protons and six electrons in the big bang are threshold one awesome let's give it up [Music]
