Which of these is NOT a common technique used in logo design?
-
Color psychology
-
Negative space
-
Mascot design
-
3D rendering
D
Correct answer
Explanation
3D rendering is not a common technique used in logo design. Logos are typically designed in 2D, using vector graphics or raster images.

Which of the following is not a common cinematography technique used in Indian animation films?
-
Motion capture
-
Rotoscoping
-
Cel animation
-
3D animation
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Motion capture is a technique used to record the movements of actors and then transfer them to a digital model. This technique is not commonly used in Indian animation films, as it is expensive and time-consuming.
Which of the following is a common animation technique used in Indian animation films?
-
Cel animation
-
3D animation
-
Motion capture
-
Rotoscoping
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Cel animation is a traditional animation technique in which animators draw each frame of the animation on a transparent sheet of plastic called a cel. This technique is often used in Indian animation films to create a hand-drawn look.
