Content Discussion

this is an excerpt from an email discussion between zelgadis (>>> and >) and oho (>> and last answer): >>> Some content of the page is disputable. I.e.: >> sure ;-) >>> ** "Chances are that for several reasons a 3D animations is much more >>> time-consuming than a comparable 2D animation. " >> chances are... >Still, very disputable. ^___^ I love disputes ;-) Seriously: it is just what came into my mind in one day, I am open to changes! I think being a bit inconvenient and insubordinate is a good thing. Please tell me when I'm getting to exaggerated, ok? >>> ** The classification of "Types Of Animation" is weird. I figured out >>> that it come from Wikipedia article, but they talk about "animation >>> techniques" - probably there's a little difference. >> I looked in several places. I found this to be weird on one hand but the most comprehensive on the other hand. >> I will rename that to technologies, good point! >ok. >>> ** "Why Do 2D Animation?" Do we really need to motivate choice of 2D >>> animation over 3D? >> yes. newbies to animation need some help on where to start. Otherwise they would tend to 3D ("3 is more than 2" kind of reasons). >> I would have found it very helpful a few years ago to get this kind of short hints on where the differences are. > They are just different. Choice of technology >>> depend on expected result. Maybe just point to the differences? >> tried to do that... what did I miss? Any help appreciated. > Maybe just rename "Why Do 2D Animation?" to something else? I like it... it doesn't say 3D is bad, it just answers the question "why should I do 2D when I can do 3D?" Other ideas?
