Description:
Pixel art is when you intentionally pixelate your art to give it a ‘game like’ feel will give it retro vibes. The style itself tends to have a restricted colour scheme, and the animations sometimes have a lower frame rate and jolty frame changes. There are two ways of really animating pixel art, and that is either through frame by frame animation, or through rigging the elements together. Both of these give very different outcomes. It's possibly worth having a look at video game sprite sheets to get a good idea of how characters or objects are animated.
This is a great resource for having a look at sprite sheets within video games.
Use: Use this style when you want to emulate a video game. Or something on a television which would have retro vibes. This kind of style will appeal for ages 5-35, basically anyone who was born in or after the 1980’s.
