Character Animation

3D, Animation and Game Development

Character animation is the process of bringing characters to life through movement, expression, and timing in film, television, video games, and other visual media. Animators use techniques like keyframing, motion capture, and principles such as squash-and-stretch and anticipation (rooted in classical Disney animation) to convey personality and emotion. It's a specialized skill within the broader animation industry, practiced using software like Autodesk Maya, Blender, or Toon Boom.
