Question

Accepted Answer

Animation is a technique of creating moving images by displaying a series of pictures or frames quickly, giving the illusion of continuous motion. 2D animation creates motion in a two-dimensional space using flat images with only height and width, is simpler and quicker to create, and is used in cartoons like Tom and Jerry. 3D animation creates motion in a three-dimensional space where objects have height, width, and depth, looks more realistic, is more complex and time-consuming to create, and is used in movies like Frozen and Toy Story.
