中 / Naka
... The middle or "in"
割る / Wa ru
... To separate or divide or split
中割り (Naka wari)
Supplementing the drawing between genga and genga is called naka-wari in Japan.
In the West it means the same thing as in-between.
タップ割り (Tap wari)
Tap wari, refers to the technique of NAKAWARI using a tool called a tap and tap-holes. I can say that All Nakawari are done by Tap wari.
That's how much Tap wari is important!
線割り (Sen wari) and デッサン割り (Dessin wari) are kind of technique of NAKAWARI. Let's see Sen wari first.
線割り (Sen wari)
Here is Genga.
The first and second genga's impressions are similar. In such cases, sen wari.
We do completion with lines between lines, is used. This is sen wari.
Sen wari is not just drawing between lines, but one must also think about what these lines mean.
Effects like explosion, water splash, smoke, and so on... You can do Nakarawi of them by sen wari.
デッサン割り (Dessin wari)
This is one of NAKAWARI you use when you can't use sen wari, in which the animator completes the drawing that is not drawn in genga with an awareness of space and three-dimensionality. ( It is similar to break down in western?).
This includes walking, running, turning around, and wave or flag animations.
I used dessin wari at where MEE rises his arm
真ん中割り (Man naka wari)
This is to split at just the middle.
均等割り (Kintou wari)
一発割り (Ippatsu wari)
This is to finish NAKAWARI in a single stroke.
(I think maybe it's not the same meaning "straight ahead", but very similar)
In the case of complex Genga, there is a method where a rough sketch is drawn first and then
do clenan-up is done, but this means that the animation is completed in one time without a
rough sketch. The closer the line drawings are to genga, the easier it is.
This is not ippatsu wari. I couldn't draw NAKAWARI without rough drawing in this case. (This is quite difficult to do ippatsu wari with genag that you have to do dessin wari. Mostly impossible)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
原画 (Genga) = Key frame
原画マン (Genga man) = Key animator (Including Layouts/timesheets/rough-gen process)
動画 (Douga) = In-between
動画マン (Douga man) = Animators who are doing in-between (including to fix low quality images/Douga-chief)
ツメ指示 (Tsume shiji)
This is.
Douga man do Nakawari along this tsumesiji basically.
中割り動画 (Nakawari Douga)
Probably this is much complicated terminology to understand for foreign people.
Sometimes Japanese Anime terminology names change on each process. Like this. We also call クリンナップ 原トレ/Gen tore（原画トレス/Genga trace）
That's why timesheet separates names to Genga and Douga. That's why timesheet separates names to Genga and Douga.
Genga that has been cleaning-up (Genga tracing) becomes Douga, and NAKAWARI douga is Douga that has been NAKAWARI.
