Flip Book.
What is it and How does it work.
A Flip Book is an simple animation technique that uses persistence of vision to create the illusion of movement between still images.
drawings are layered on top of each other and flipped through at a fast pace showing each picture one after another giving the illusion of movement.
it is created by using a flip book which is a book made of empty pages the drawings are put on and once the drawing are done it is ready to be used.
Advantages.

- can be complicated but dont have to be
Disadvantages.
- Some amount of artistic ability is needed to make good animations
- time consuming as each single picture needs to be drawn
- difficult to create consistent pictures that look alike (Artistic ability)
- animations can only reach a certain limit for quality
History.
