WHAT IS 2D ANIMATION?
2D animation is simply making objects move in a two dimensional space. These objects vary from stills, like photographs or logos to more complex objects, like 3D graphics.
We can use the latest versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, Freehand, After Affects, Motion, Live-type Maya, in-design Aperture, Shake and Flash.
Flip book.
A flip book is a collection of combined pictures intended to be flipped over to give the illusion of movement and create an animated sequence from a simple small book without machine.
Cell animation
A traditional form of animation used in the production of cartoons or animated movies where each frame of the scene is drawn by hand. A full-length feature film produced using cell animation would often require a million or more drawings to complete.
Roto-scoping
Rotoscoping is a technique that allows you to create animation that mimics live action video. For example, a live actor may be filmed doing a series of actions, and the animator would have the digital character mimic the actions of the human actor for a realistic animated scene.
Drawn-on-film animation is exactly what it sounds like, animation that's drawn directly on the film reel, using a number of tools, techniques, and methods.
Photographic stills can be used to produce a 2D animation.
2D animation Digital -
Formats - Common bitmap formats;
Vector Graphics - Vector-based graphics are those 2D or 3D graphics you can scale to any size without losing image quality.
You can use Application software such as after effects, flash and director.

The Phenakitoscope was created by Joseph Plateau in 1832. In the same year it was also invented by various other people. Plateau was inspired by Micheal Faraday's wheel. the Faraday wheel consisted of two wheels spun in the opposite direction Plateau adapted this idea and created the Phenakitoscope.
Zoetrope
The zoetrope is a mechanical optical device invented in 1834 by William George Horner, a British mathematician. It became a popular Victorian parlor toy until it was replaced by modern film technology. In modern times, zoetropes have been displayed in public transportation stations in Brooklyn, New York; New Jersey; and Washington, D.C.
