REA (Rapid Eye Animation)

REA (Rapid Eye Animation) is a technique used in digital editing and film production that involves quickly animating or visualizing scenes, characters, or effects to preview how they will look. It enables filmmakers, editors, and artists to see a fast, rough approximation of complex sequences without final details, aiding in decision-making and planning. Think of it as a swift, high-energy sketching process that helps visualize ideas and improve coordination before detailed work begins. REA improves efficiency and creativity by providing immediate visual feedback in early production stages.
