ABSTRACT:
There is provided a system and method for a computerized animation system comprising a series of images stored in a memory storage structure. These images are comprised of picture elements, and the memory storage structures comprise a plurality of bit planes, which are further divided into at least two storage structures. A first storage structure is used for storing operator-modified image information in a vector representation, and a second storage structure is used to store a raster representation of the operator-modified image information. The system can display multiple images from the second storage structure to facilitate the creation of additional images.
