While browsing web pages what attracts you the most the lengthy content or images and videos? Well according to sources more than content, images and videos attract the viewers. Thus making all businesses and organizations opting for attaching videos and images to their website which explains their services and products in more precise manner.

The process of 3D Animation is long and goes through pre-production, production to post production. It requires time, people and software to create 3d animation. There are various processes to be followed to create 3d animation. They are 

Story and editing 

All directors and writers frame an idea like what the video is going to be. Then story boarders turn script into images. Editing is required throughout from story board to final when the video is completed and delivered. 

3D Artist

Rigging and skinning 

Riggers allow animators to create movements and expressions for models and characters. 

Surfacing 

At this stage life is given to the characters that adding details to it. It is nothing but what is called as texturing.
