Animated graphics: GIF
The format supports
up to 8 bits per pixel of each image, this allows a single image to have a
colour palette of 256 colours which are chose from a 24 bit RGB colour space.
GIF’s use a compression of a LZW which is a compression type without losing
much of the images quality, also GIF’s are relatively small files and do not
take up much memory even though they are animated
A GIF (Graphical Interchange Format) it is a Bitmap image
format that was introduced in 1987 and is vastly used over the World Wide Web.
GIF are useful as not only are they animated with a number of images together in a sequence surprisingly they take up little memory, and can be played on most internet browser, however the speed that they play is all down to the speed that your internet is.
I have used quite a few GIFs in my work, however i now have been asked to create one, the way i have done this is using Adobe Flash, and once i had completed creating it i converted it to be a GIF.
