Animation is a method to manipulate or represent animated figures to appear as moving objects. Photos are drawn or painted by hand on translucent celluloid sheets, which are to be photographed and used on screen in conventional animation method. The majority of today's animations are created using computer-generated imagery (CGI) and the software used to create such effects are called animation software. Digital animation can be very complex and varied. Majority of the animation can be either 3D animation or 2D computer animation, which are widely used for stylistic purposes, low latency, or faster real-time renderings. Stop motion animation is used to create two- and three-dimensional models such as paper cutouts, puppets, and clay figures.
