Explanation of animation terms! ! !

1. ova

The so-called ova is the abbreviation of Original Video Animation. To put it bluntly, it is a video tape! ! Foreigners don’t have such a thing as VCD! ! ! Therefore, many anime are sold in the form of video tapes. Generally, it will not be shown on TV or in theaters, unless it is to expand publicity or the product itself is very popular! ! !

2. Theatrical version

It can be seen literally that it is a cartoon shown in the cinema! ! ! There are two sources for the theatrical version. First, when a certain TV work is particularly popular, the production staff begins to plan to make an animated film based on the theme. This category is often created in a separate genre based on the plot itself, but there are also cases where the TV version of "Gundam 08ms Squad The Movie" is condensed and shown. Secondly, just like making an ordinary movie, it does not necessarily have to be a TV animation, an original script can be used as well. Such as Miyazaki Jun's anime movies!

3. TV version

Everyone on earth knows this~~~~! It’s the animation that airs on TV! ! Japanese animation is usually produced and broadcast at the same time~~

4. Original work

For example, the original painter of "Dragon Ball" is Akira Toriyama, so the original work often refers to the original author of the comic. However, there are also animations adapted from novels, so his original work is the author of the novel.

8. CV

Character Voice voice actor (don’t say you know what a voice actor is). There are also some animations with "CAST" subtitles at the end.

9. Painted ュソテ

Specially designed to deal with sub-mirrors. To divide the animation into a mirror, you first roughly draw the animation expression method on paper, including character movement, camera movement, and perspective changes, and add relevant text explanations.

10. Layout

18. Animation: Make up the continuous actions between the original paintings. Animators are usually newcomers, but they are the origin of the animation industry, from animation -> original painting -> animation supervision.... Those who have worked their way up are the strongest. However, because it is the most basic level of work and the hard work pays little, fewer and fewer people are willing to do it....

Cartoons played late at night are often early in the morning. Unlike the cartoons that are broadcast at 7:00 and 8:00 p.m., late-night animations have a clear adult tendency. But the adults here are by no means “that kind” as you imagine! ! It is made for an older audience.

So it is often relatively profound, dull and rational. Such as "LAIN", "NOIR" and "HELLSING". Of course, there are also a few parts that are more or less related to "bloody", "violent", and "pornographic" and are moved to late night.

25. Number of frames
