Frame by Frame Animation Research



Above is an example of Frame By Frame animation that I found on YouTube. As might be able to make out, below the main frame we can see many frames underneath and each frame contains the horse in a slightly different position. When the animation is played back it runs as a sequence, this sequence happens to be a running cycle. 

But unlike Pose to Pose animation there are no keyframes meaning that if an animator is animating this sequence there is no filling in the gaps, the animator will just animate from beginning to end until the shot/scene changes. Although the animation is simple in that there is no back drop, it clearly demonstrates what frame by frame animation is as we can clearly tell what we're looking at.
