3D, Animation and Game Development

Animation is the process of creating the illusion of movement by displaying a rapid sequence of images, whether hand-drawn, computer-generated, or stop-motion. Animators work in film, television, video games, and advertising, using software like Adobe Animate, Toon Boom, Blender, or Maya to bring characters and scenes to life. The field spans 2D, 3D, and motion graphics disciplines, requiring skills in drawing, timing, and storytelling.
