Zoetropes and a Modern animation video

Today I learnt how to make and use a Zoeatrope. There are three parts to a Zoetrope and that is the base, Drumb and strip. The base holds the drumb and the drumb holds a strip with watever is goint to be animated. When you spin the drum you have to look through the slits at the top to see the image move. Zeotropes are really fun to play around with and were discovered in the Victorian times.

Here is a video briefly explaining and demonstrating a Zoetrope
