Movement-"Run Lola Run"

Discuss the central differences between animation and live-action movies.

Animation and live-action movies have a few central differences. Animation is a display of 2-D or 3-D sequenced images that create a moving illusion of the characters and settings. The most common way to present these 2-D or 3-D images is by motion picture or video programming. In the movie Run Lola Run, animation and live-action film was created. In the beginning of the movie it showed Lola running out of her apartment in real life then the film changes to an animation of her running down steps. I like how this director incorporated animation into this film because it caused the scene to become faster and more thrilling.



Live-action refers to cinematography but not animation. The main characters stay real life but there may be a few animated objects in the scene. You see this happen in the movie sometimes when she is running.

Some people mistaken animation and live-action movies to be the same but it is not. Animation movies are all animation 3-D images. Live-action movies have some animation but a lot of real life people. I like these kind of movies because it shows real imagination and creativity that attracts viewers.
