Norman McLaren demonstrates the basics of animated tempo, showing a simple disc moving from A to B at progressively slower speeds.

A master animator's crystal-clear lesson in the building block of all animation: timing.

The first part of this series by Norman McLaren deals only with tempo. It starts by showing the disc travelling in one move (1/24 of a second) from A to B, and progressively demonstrates slower and slower tempos.
