Computer animation/(n.)/電腦動畫

解釋：Computer animation (or CGI animation) is the art of creating moving images with the use of computers. It is a subfield of computer graphics and animation. Increasingly it is created by means of 3D computer graphics, though 2D computer graphics are still widely used for stylistic, low bandwidth, and faster real-time rendering needs. Sometimes the target of the animation is the computer itself, but sometimes the target is another medium, such as film. It is also referred to as CGI (computer-generated imagery or computer-generated imaging)

中文翻譯：電腦動畫（Computer Animation），又稱電腦繪圖技術，是通過使用電腦製作動畫的藝術。它是電腦圖形學和動畫的子領域。它越來越多的藉助於三維電腦圖形學，雖然二維電腦圖形學仍然被廣泛使用著。有時動畫最後使用的地方就是電腦本身，有時候則是另外的媒體，譬如電影。(Source：Google翻譯)
