onionskining
Onionskinning is a technique used in animation and drawing to view multiple frames or layers simultaneously, facilitating the creation of smooth, consistent motion. This method involves overlaying semi-transparent images or transparent sheets, allowing artists to compare the current drawing with previous or subsequent frames. The term derives from the layered appearance resembling the thin, translucent skin of an onion.
In traditional animation, onionskinning is achieved by placing multiple sheets of acetate or tracing paper over
Onionskinning is fundamental to both hand-drawn and computer-generated animation, enhancing the animator's ability to visualize motion
Overall, onionskinning improves accuracy in frame-by-frame animation, reduces errors, and streamlines the workflow. Its continued use
