The Teacher Toolbox

Kids and adults love 3d animation but the price of modern 3d software prohibits us mere mortals from experimenting with it.

Whenever I run workshop, Anim8or (a free 3d program) is often the most popular piece. It allows you to manipulate 3d shapes to create your own environments and if you wish to get a little more techo you can make small snippets of animated film.

Here is a little character my 8 year old son knocked up with the program.

Today I’ve added a very rough ‘Anim8or - QUICK START GUIDE‘ to my website to help you on your way to making the next Shrek, Happy Feet etc.

cheers
