CSE 459 - PreProduction

 

BASIC ANIMATION            home  previous


These set of exercises go through step-by-step the process of animation.  As you progress through these tutorials, they will become less and less detailed as it will be assumed that you started with the first tutorial and worked your way to the end.

If you are unfamiliar with the term of "setting keys" or you need a refresher course, it is recommended that you go through number 1 and 2.
