Animation

Animation is a simulation of motion created by displaying a series of pictures, or frames. It is different from video in that independent images are put together to form the illusion of continuous motion. Video takes continuous motion and breaks it up into a set of frames. This category deals with the use of computers in generating various forms of animation.
