2d/3D Game Animator
1 day ago
2d/3D animators bring an imagined universe and its characters to life. Everything within frame has scope, weight, and meaning. Animators need to be able to visualize new worlds into being.
The movements and trajectories created by an animator are inputted into the relevant software as mathematical equations which are then rendered via a graphics processing unit that outputs the final animation in what's called a 'playblast'. This is then reviewed by supervisors, directors, and clients for approval.
Role & responsibilities of a 2d/ 3d animator in film and games:
- 'Breathing life' into 2d/3D rigged models
- Researching visual style, genre, and technologies to produce each individual project
- Identifying key scenes and sequences
- Transforming storyboards into animated sequences
- Managing files, animation libraries, and updating procedures documentation
- Integrating sound and syncing dialogue
