Video Transcript

"We're making a flip book; we've just drawn our first and our last frames which we'll call key frames. These are the most important poses in an animation. Next, we're going to make our first in between frame and in between is just an average of two other points. So in this case our in between, between 1 and 90 is going to be 45. So, we take our first and last frames, frame 1 and 90, put them on a light table so we can see through them. Add a blank card on top. And then, looking straight through three frames, the first one being blank, we can trace the lines from 1 and 90. This takes some time."
