ABSTRACT:
An animation recording process is particularly adapted to videotape recorders of the type having a control panel display, multifunction soft keys, and are microprocessor controlled. Rapid recording of large pluralities of still images is effected using the animation "cel" recording concept wherein a selected cel is recorded as a selectable repetition of a single still image is recorded without interruption between frames or fields of the cel, i.e., without recueing the transport. Using the cel concept further allows the determination of not only the subsequent cel edit entry point, but also of the subsequent cel edit exit point, whereby pre-programming the points allows automating the recording of an animated program with a minimum of operator attention.
