How to categorize 10 animation styles?

[Bas V breugel]

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this, but gonna give it a try.

I’m planning to make a sort of showreel or montage that shows 10 different animation categories. So far I have narrowed it down to the most used in this list. ;

01 Character | (Explainer video)

02 Type | (Kinetic type, Title intro/outro)

03 Visual effects | (Greenscreen, explosions/fluids/particulars, motiontracked fx)

04 3D | (Products, exploded views)

05 Photo | (2/D, collage)

06 Abstract | (shapes, textures)

07 Interface UX | (apps, dashboard car startup)

08 Frame by frame |

09 Stopmotion | (Pinokkio movie)

10 AI ? | (software automated generated)

Any ideas or examples?

Some of those can be truncated to a single example.

Frame by frame and Stop-motion for instance.

Not sure what you mean by Character (Explainer Video).
Are you referring to PowToons?

I would not put that together.

Hi Eric,

I see ‘Frame by frame’ as animating in Photoshop exporting to AE. Stopmotion more clay puppets or real live studio recording.

Characters animation is maybe a broad term.. I mean animations like Dekay and Motion Markus.
