During my research about the trends in animation in the year 2021 I've ran across some that I tried myself in my first year of college and the first one is camera tracking compositing and it basically means that you add camera points to your video and animation and it will give you that amazing effect of 3D movements. But, in my experience I can't say it's easy because you really need to know what you are doing and where to place the camera points to give you the best effect. One of the other trendy animation styles is the mixed media which consist of a lot animation and things like photos and real objects and stuff. And in my opinion, it’s the most popular trend in the past few years because it made explanations and videos a lot easier to understand and compress a lot of information in one video that is filled with the drawings, animation and other types of mixed media. And some of the reasons why people like animation is that it has nice imaginary and visually pleasing scenes and sometimes it can be realistic and has an amazing effect and through it you can represent good stories and strong characters and more important everything an animation film has to fit together to make it perfect so if your animation is it connected you won't be able to reach the viewer's heart. Also, animation is important because you will be able to tell the stories unique eight emotions and ideas to perceive all type of people such as kids up to grownups and adults and it has a way to connect people throughout the world in a way that sometimes writing and life actions films cannot. Moreover, another type that is pretty famous trend is illustrations in animation because it's more flexible and you can create any character or any prop from your mind easily because actors need a budget and they can't do all the stuff that illustrations can and you can prove a point easier with illustrations instead of real humans and you can move it easily and play around with it and can apply other animation trends easily on illustrations.
