CHAPTER 05: ANIMATION


Part 1: Key Team Quiz

1. An object seen by the human eye remains chemically mapped on the retina for a brief time
after viewing. This phenomenon is called _______________.
2. The human mind needs to conceptually complete a perceived action. This phenomenon is
called _______________.
3. To make an object travel across the screen while it changes its shape, just change the shape
and also move or _______________ it a few pixels for each frame.
4. The animation technique made famous by Disney involves showing a different image for each
frame. This technique is called _______________ animation.
5. The first and last frames of an action are called _______________.
6. The series of frames in between the first and last frames in an action are drawn in a process
called _______________.
7. In computer animation terminology, _______________ usually refers to special methods that
allow images to blend or otherwise mix their colors to produce special transparencies, inversions,
and effects.
8. The study of the movement and motion of structures that have joints is called
_______________. 9. The effect in which one image transforms into another is known as
_______________.

into cells

c. meta-articulation
d. cyber-motion

window = pyglet.window.Window()
label = pyglet.text.Label("Hello Pyglet Applications", font_name="Times New Roman",
font_size=35,
x=window.width /2, y = window.height/2,
anchor_x='center', anchor_y='center')
@window.event
def on_draw():
window.clear()
label.draw()

pyglet.app.run()

- Adding GIF image and application: Use your animation file

import pyglet

animation = pyglet.image.load_animation('unnamed.gif') 4
animSprite = pyglet.sprite.Sprite(animation)

w = animSprite.width
h = animSprite.height

window = pyglet.window.Window(width=w, height=h)

r,g,b,alpha = 0.5,0.5,0.8,0.5

pyglet.gl.glClearColor(r,g,b,alpha)

@window.event
def on_draw():
window.clear()
animSprite.draw()

pyglet.app.run()

player = pyglet.media.Player()
source = pyglet.media.load(vidPath)

player.queue(MediaLoad)
player.play()

@window.event
def on_draw():
if player.source and player.source.video_format:
player.get_texture().blit(50,50)

pyglet.app.run()

- Playing MP3: Use your mp3 file

import pyglet
5
music = pyglet.resource.media(‘guitar.mp3’, streaming=False)
music.play()

pyglet.app.run()
