ANIMATION CAMERA
A motion picture camera specially adapted for frame-by-frame shooting animation or stop motion, also called a rostrum camera. It consists of a camera body with lens and film magazines, a stand that allows the camera to be raised and lowered, and a table, often with both top and underneath lighting. The artwork to be photographed is placed on this table.
Some manufacturers of animation cameras:
- Acme (USA)
- Crass (Germany)
- Neilson-Hordell (UK)
- Oxberry (USA)
- Sickles (USA)
- Double M (USA)
- A.I.A. Productions (USA)
Since most animation is now produced digitally, new animation cameras are not widely manufactured. Video cameras and scanners have taken their place.
