A Flash animation or Flash cartoon is an animated film which is created using Adobe Flash animation software and often distributed in the . swf file format. It can be created in Flash or with other programs capable of writing . swf files. The term Flash animation not only refers to the file format but to a certain kind of movement and visual style which, in many circles, is seen as simplistic or unpolished.

  • A Flash animation or Flash cartoon is an animated film which is created using Adobe Flash animation software and often distributed in the . swf file format. It can be created in Flash or with other programs capable of writing . swf files. The term Flash animation not only refers to the file format but to a certain kind of movement and visual style which, in many circles, is seen as simplistic or unpolished. However, with dozens of Flash animated television series, countless more Flash animated television commercials, and award-winning online shorts in circulation, Flash animation is enjoying a renaissance. In the late 1990s, when for most Internet users, bandwidth was still at 56 kbit/s, many Flash animation artists employed limited animation or cutout animation when creating projects intended for web distribution. This allowed artists to release shorts and interactive experiences well under 1 MB, which could stream both audio and high-end animation. One example is the first episode of The Goddamn George Liquor Program released in 1999, rendered at only 628kB. Some hallmarks of poorly-produced Flash animation are jerky natural movements (seen in walk-cycles and gestures), auto-tweened character movements, lip-sync without interpolation, and abrupt changes from front to profile view. Although Flash is able to integrate bitmaps and other raster-based art, as well as video, most Flash films are created using only vector-based drawings which often result in a somewhat clean graphic appearance. Flash animations are typically distributed by way of the World Wide Web, in which case they are often referred to as Internet cartoons, online cartoons, or webtoons. Web Flash animations may be interactive and are often created in a series. A Flash animation is distinguished from a Webcomic, which is a comic strip distributed via the Web, rather than an animated cartoon.
  • Une animation flash est un animation réalisée à l'aide du logiciel Adobe Flash ou à partir d'un script ActionScript compilé grâce à différents compilateurs. L'animation peut être interactive et est lue à partir du navigateur grâce au plugin flash player.
  • Il termine Animazione flash, o Flash animation, o anche Flash cartoon, indica un file creato mediante il software Adobe Flash (o simili), di tipo ShockWave Flash, con estensione . swf. Si tratta, in sostanza, di un cartone animato che può essere realizzato sia in grafica raster (rappresentando i singoli frame poi visualizzati in rapida successione), sia mediante grafica vettoriale. L'animazione può diventare anche interattiva, se alle immagini si aggiungono oggetti con codice scritto in ActionScript, linguaggio di scripting event-driven incluso nel software. Nonostante i limiti di fruibilità nel caso di connessioni alla rete con Modem a 56 Kbps, questa tecnica si è diffusa molto nel Web sia per la realizzazione di siti, sia per la produzione di cartoni animati amatoriali pubblicati on-line (i cosiddetti web cartoons) e, grazie alla sua economicità, è alla base di serie televisive, spot pubblicitari, lungometraggi e cortometraggi animati. Tra i software in grado di produrre file in formato . swf, si possono elencare Toufee, KoolMoves, Express Animator e Anime Studio. In una accezione più ampia, il termine Flash Animation non include soltanto i file con estensione . swf, ma anche tutti quei cartoni animati che presentano caratteristiche quali colorazione a tinte unite, movimenti non puliti o realizzati in maniera sbrigativa.
