Digital 2D animation is a form of animation that is created using digital technology. The animation is created in two dimensions, meaning that the characters and objects are not in 3D space. This type of animation is typically created using software such as Flash, Toon Boom, and Adobe Animate. The process of creating digital 2D animation involves drawing and painting the frames of the animation, and then arranging them in a specific order to create the illusion of movement. This can be done by hand, using a graphics tablet and stylus, or using a mouse. Digital 2D animation is often used in television, film, and video games, and can also be used to create interactive animations on the web. Additionally, it is a widely used method in explainer videos, and instructional videos.
