Disney's Twelve Principles of Animation

12. Appeal

makes the caracter charismatic

11. Solid Drawings

gives characters volume and weight

10. Exaggeration

presenting reality in an wilder, more extreme form

9. Timing

correct timing gives the impression that objects obey the laws of physics

8. Secondary Action

gives more life to the scene and supports the main action

7. Arcs

almost all natural movements follow an arc pattern

6. Slow-In and Slow-Out

creates the illusion that objects need time to accelerate and slow down

5. Follow Through and Overlapping Action

used to give the impression that the drawn object follows the laws of physics

4. Straight Ahead and Pose to Pose

Pose to Pose means starting with a few keyframes, and filling the intervals later

Straight Ahead means drawing the entire scene frame by frame from begginning to end

3. Staging

Johnston and Thomas defined staging as "the presentation of any idea so that it is completely and unmistakably clear"

2. Anticipation

prepares the viewer for an upcoming action

1. Squash and Stretch

gives sense of weight and flexibility to drawn objects
