Playlist

animating-smThis series deals with animating in Strata Design 3D CX. We will animate the taxiing of the plane, controlling the trajectory and aligning the plane to its path. We insist in the use of shapes for organizing our animations.

This is the starting model file

The video shows:

  • Handling the plane rotation in a new shape
  • Keyframing the position of the plane
  • Creating the plane taxiing path
  • Aligning the plane to the path

We now need to make the camera follow the plane.
