Tom and Jerry: A Nutcracker Tale is an example of what type of motion picture that makes the illusion of motion and change by the rapid succession of sequential images that minimally differ from each other?
Tom and Jerry: A Nutcracker Tale Tom and Jerry: A Nutcracker Tale is a 2007 animated holiday themed fantasy comedy direct-to-video film starring "Tom and Jerry" produced by Warner Bros. Animation and directed by Spike Brandt and Tony Cervone. It is loosely based on the story "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" by E. T. A. Hoffmann, with Jerry in the role of the Nutcracker, while Tom played one of the King Mouse's (who, in this version, is replaced with a cat) henchmen.
Flipped image A flipped image or reversed image, the more formal term, is a static or moving image that is generated by a mirror-reversal of an original across a horizontal axis (a "flopped" image is mirrored across the vertical axis). Many printmaking techniques produce images where the printed copy is reversed from the image made on the printing plate, so in a print copying another image, or a real scene or object, unless the artist deliberately creates the plate as a mirror-image of his subject, the finished print will be a mirror image of it. Many print makers developed the skill of reversing images when making printing plates, but many prints, especially early ones, have images that are reversed.
