Part 1 What’s 3D Text Animation?

Before anything else, let’s talk about text animation. Specifically, 3D Text Animation. The text that you’re reading now, is 2D Text. It’s static, and it lacks depth. It’s just letters on a screen. Meanwhile, 3D Text is usually built for motion, and thus, it has volume and depth — it’s almost tangible. Here’s what that looks like:

As you can see, even without actually moving, in the text shown in the image above, the potential for motion is there — it looks alive.

Now, you’ll see 3D text like this often in movies or promotions. Usually in the form of extravagant title cards or 3D text logo animation. They’re eye-catching, and because they’re 3D, you can play with them as much as you want to really add drama to your creations.

Part 2 How Do I Make 3D Text in After Effects?

As promised, this next section will teach you how to create 3D Text Animation in Adobe After Effects, which is a VFX and motion graphics software used by many animators to bring life to their text. You’ll notice that the following tutorial is really more about introducing the tools that you can use in order to create 3D Text Animation:

01Step 1. Add Your Text

The first thing that you have to do, of course, is to add your text! To do this, go to the ‘Tools’ panel, select the Type tool, and then select the ‘Composition’ panel. The composition is where you type your text!

With After Effects, you also have the following options:

● Change Text Font

● Adjust Text Size

● Adjust Text Color

● Shift Justification (Left, Middle, right)

And so on! Once you’re done with your text composition, it will be generated by After Effects into a layer that you can adjust as needed in the next steps.

01Step 2. Use Animation Presets

With your text now in a layer that you can add animations to… you’ve practically done a third of the job! Or even more than that if you decide to use the animation presets that are provided by After Effects.

These can be found by selecting ‘Browse Presets…’ on the ‘Animation’ tab (shown in the image below.) All you need to apply them is to drag and drop them onto your text layer.

Note: The first keyframe of this built-in text animation will be applied at the location of the Current Time Indicator (CTI), so make sure that you’ve adjusted that accordingly.

01Step 3. Per-Character Animation

If you’d like to personalize your text animation, After Effects does also give you the option to animate per character (or, per letter, in this case.)

This will give you more control over how you decided to animate your text. Of course, it does mean that it is slightly more complicated as well.

● To animate text per layer, select ‘animate’ on that layer and choose a parameter to start working on animations for.

● You’ll be able to previous (or scrub) through your animations in order to see if they are doing what you need them to do.

● You can also remove applied parameters in order to re-work your animation.

01Step 4. Add Graphic Elements to Text

If you really want to make your 3D Animation Text pop, Adobe After Effects also offers the tools needed to add Graphic Elements to your composition — which can be found at the top-most toolbar!

Part 3 The Best 10 Amazing 3D Text Animation Templates

Now, as promised, we’re also going to be introducing a couple of 3D text animation templates that you can try out for your own projects! Each template will have a link that you can go to in order to see what it looks like, as well as an explanation on how you can use it for your projects in the future!

01Real 3D Light Bulb Kit

The first Text Animation Template on our list is the “Logo Light Bulb” 3D Animation from Envato Elements. This one literally glows people! Making it perfect for a quirky, and yet still very impressive Title Card or Logo. Its design is very realistic, and you can also control how it flickers! For example, turning the bulbs on certain characters first, or turning them all off at once in the end.

023D Text Reveal

This next 3D Animation template is also from Envato Market. And, just like the first, it makes for quite the dramatic Title Card or Logo. With this template, your Text can literally zoom in to view while looking its best and sparkiest in High-Chrome.

033D Metallic Text Animation

Our next pick, the 3D Metallic text animation is another great one for those who are looking for something flashy — something that gives off the impression of being impressive right from the gate. Compared to the previous text animation template, this one has a more rugged kind of appearance. Perfect for those looking to promote something more fun rather than professional.

043D Text Box Animation Pack

The next one is a little less ‘impressive’ — in the sense that it isn’t as in your face as the other 3D animation templates that we’ve introduced thus far. And that’s exactly why the 3D Text Box Animation Pack deserves to be on this list! Its 3D spinning text (after effects) elements are very usable — in that it can work for a variety of individuals and styles. It has a more professional look as well. Making it perfect for corporations.

053D Text & Logo Boxes

This next one, the 3D Text & Logo Boxes pack is particularly perfect for 3D logos. The pack gives you several options for box size as well as text parameters. So, you can design your animated 3D Logo however you want and use it for future projects to give them even more dimension than before.

06The Light Bulb Kit

Our next pick, which is the ‘Light Bulb Kit’ also from Envato, is very similar to the first item on our list — in that it features text lit up by lightbulbs. However, it lends an extra bit of photo-realism to it. Less sparkle and more grain — which may exactly be what you want for your new title card or logo.

073D Text Templates

The 3D Text Templates is a very bright and pop-y template that is perfect for creating eye-catching promotions and advertisements. It’s very simple to use, which, again, maybe exactly what you want. Literally, the template will ask you to choose your own text and change the colors to suit that of your own brand, then you’re done!

083D Text Shapes Logo Reveal

The ‘3D Text Shapes Logo Reveal’ template is a pack of 3D text animations that you can use in order to add a little spin to your logo reveals (quite literally, in some cases!) It has a lot of personality to it, and a certain tech-y or science-y feel that would make it perfect for anyone looking for something more technical.

09Bold Titles

The ‘Bold Titles’ template is very loud and proud. But it has a bit of a retro-vibe to it as well. Making it stand out from some of the more minimalistic modern text animation styles that you see these days.

1010. Wave 3D Logo & Text

Looking for something simple and professional? Then the ‘Wave 3D Logo & Text’ template may just be the one for you. We put it last on this list, but it’s actually quite a strong contender. One that just about anyone (for just about any type of project they’re working on), should be able to get some use out of.

Key Takeaways from This Episode

● 3D Text Animation is the practice of bringing text to life! It gives dimension, depth, and, even, movement into what are usually very static properties!

● You see a lot of 3D Text Animation in big pictures these days. And you can start creating your own with the use of Adobe After Effects — a VFX and Motion Graphics Software that a lot of professionals use for their own text animation.

● Of course, if you don’t have the kind of time to create your own 3D Text Animations from scratch, you can always use templates instead! There are hundreds (if not thousands) of them available out there. It should be simple enough to find one that fits the kind of vibe you’re looking for.

● SECRET TIP! If you’re looking for an all-in-one kind of solution, you might want to consider Filmora Pro. It’s a video editor, first and foremost, but that’s not all it is — you can be using it today to start creating your own 3D Text Animations!

Our next pick, which is the ‘Light Bulb Kit’ also from Envato, is very similar to the first item on our list — in that it features text lit up by lightbulbs. However, it lends an extra bit of photo-realism to it. Less sparkle and more grain — which may exactly be what you want for your new title card or logo.

073D Text Templates

The 3D Text Templates is a very bright and pop-y template that is perfect for creating eye-catching promotions and advertisements. It’s very simple to use, which, again, maybe exactly what you want.

The ‘3D Text Shapes Logo Reveal’ template is a pack of 3D text animations that you can use in order to add a little spin to your logo reveals (quite literally, in some cases!) It has a lot of personality to it, and a certain tech-y or science-y feel that would make it perfect for anyone looking for something more technical.

09Bold Titles

The ‘Bold Titles’ template is very loud and proud. But it has a bit of a retro-vibe to it as well. Making it stand out from some of the more minimalistic modern text animation styles that you see these days.

1010. Wave 3D Logo & Text

Looking for something simple and professional? Then the ‘Wave 3D Logo & Text’ template may just be the one for you. We put it last on this list, but it’s actually quite a strong contender. One that just about anyone (for just about any type of project they’re working on), should be able to get some use out of.

Have a look at this realistic 3D recreation of Stitch’s character. Isn’t it scary?

10 Popeye (Popeye – The Sailor Man)

Popeye – The Sailor Man is another famous cartoon series. Popeye is the main protagonist of this series. He has a girlfriend named Olive Oyl. This series depicts the love triangle between Popeye, Olive, and Bluto. He is an uneducated sailor man who gets energy by eating spinach. He often comes up with non-realistic solutions to different problems and helps the police by investigating different cases. He has a versatile tobacco smoking pipe that sometimes acts as a whistle, and he even intakes the spinach through his pipe.

In the cartoon films, he looks funny, but this 3D recreation of his character is a bit scary.

We certainly have a couple of recommendations to offer to you. There’s a surprisingly large amount of both caricature photo maker apps and online caricature maker tools.

Today, we’ll be focusing on the apps, to keep things easily accessible. And, in the end, we’ve even included a quick step-by-step guide on how to make a caricature of a photo.

In this article

01 [The 10 Best Makers to Turn Photos to Caricature Effects](#Part 1)

02 [How to Draw a Caricature — Step by Step Guide](#Part 2)

Part 1 The 10 Best Makers to Turn Photos to Caricature Effects

As promised, part one of this article is devoted to a list of the 10 best caricature maker apps that we can find. We’ll be focusing on the Apple App Store, in this case, but it’s important to note that most of these are available on the Google play store as well. (A link to the app has been provided for your convenience as well.)

011. MomentCam Cartoons & Stickers

The first of the caricature maker apps on our list is ‘MomentCam Cartoon & Stickers’ — this app is part of another tool called ‘Avatar Maker Bundle’, but it can be used on its own to create caricature versions of yourself that you can use to express emotions (an avatar, if you will).

This app was made primarily to help the user to create an avatar that matches their look (with accessorization features to complete the set). However, you can interact with other members of the community to create multiple avatars if you wish. Or, you can share your caricature pictures on social media.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/momentcam-cartoons-stickers/id687624831

02Color Cartoon Caricature Maker

This next caricature maker app uses a more realistic style akin to what is usually used for a political caricature of famous individuals and politicians. It’s called ‘Color Cartoon Caricature Maker’ and, while not as extensive in its features as the previous app, it can be used to turn an image completely into a caricature (which means that it can be used for photographs with more than one person or focus.)

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/color-cartoon-caricature-maker/id1448093448

03PicMagic- Cartoon Photo Editor

Up next, we have ‘Pic Magic’ which is better described as a ‘cartoon photo editor’ but still works as a serviceable caricature maker if all you’re looking for is a subtle enhancement of features (unlike what was shown in the political caricature maker we showed previously.)

Much like the second app, while it’s more suitable for enhancing the features of one person, it does work for group pictures as well.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/picmagic-cartoon-photo-editor/id1491645007

04Photic - Cartoon Yourself AI

This next app, called ‘Photic’ is much like our previously listed app, PicMagic. As you can see from the image provided, it can make a caricature of a photo but in a subtle way that is undeniably more of a ‘cartoony’ style than what you might be looking for. Keep that in mind.

The best part of it is that you can use it along with iMessage — making it very easy to share your finished caricature pictures with friends and family. The downside? It is best used for solo picture caricature-like only.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/photic-cartoon-yourself-ai/id1484108330

05ToonApp Cartoon Photo Editor

‘ToonApp’ is the next caricature maker on our list. As you can see from the image provided, the style of caricature is a lot more realistic here. Very similar to what you normally see of western comics (which only subtly changes the features of a person to look more rendered.) The best part of this app? Well, unlike some of the other options on this list, it works great for group pictures.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/toonapp-cartoon-photo-editor/id1540719743

06Voilà AI Artist Cartoon Photo

This next app is very similar to the previous one we introduced. It’s called ‘Voilà AI Artist Cartoon Photo’ and the main difference between it and the ToonApp app that we introduced earlier is that it uses a different caricature style. Not unlike what you see from 3D animations — which is a mix of realism and cartoony.

This tool, much like a lot of other alternatives, is best used for selfies.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/voil%C3%A0-ai-artist-cartoon-photo/id1558421405

07Caricature Hyper Face Morph

Now we go back to what most people usually consider ‘caricature’ with the ‘Caricature Hyper Face Morph’ app. This app, as you can see from the image below, allows you to morph a photograph into something more exaggerated (turning it into a true-to-form caricature; like what you would see in political caricature segments in newspapers or old animated short films.)

It works for group photographs surprisingly well as well. With the AI recognizing and applying the ‘morph’ effect to everyone.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/caricature-hyper-face-morph-from-photos-camera-shots/id587429629

08Face Caricature

The next caricature maker on our list is the app called ‘Face Caricature.’ The best part of this app, undoubtedly, is the fact that it offers several ‘caricature’ styles that you can choose from. So, you aren’t stuck with just one cartoon style. It’s better for selfies, however — it doesn’t work as well as a group picture caricature maker.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/face-caricature-cartoon-photo/id1007143753

09Cartoon Caricature Face Camera

This is a camera tool that you can use in order to take photographs and turn them into caricatures. There are several caricature art styles for you to choose from, which are always fun. Plus, it offers easy save-and-share features. As a final note, this app works best as a selfie app.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/cartoon-caricature-face-camera/id1424277519

10Face Distortion - Screw Up Your Face

Though this app isn’t exactly a ‘caricature maker‘ it does work like one. It’s just a matter of finding the right distortive effect to mimic the look of an actual caricature sketch. The best part about it is that it’s basically a custom caricature maker — one that allows you to control exactly what features are exaggerated.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/face-distortion-screw-up-your-face/id1188623179

Part 2 How to Draw a Caricature — Step by Step Guide

Now for our promised tutorial. Here, we introduce a quick and easy way to draw caricatures. Take it more as an overview of what exactly caricatures are and how you can create them by following a specific set of steps. Ah, but of course, just to make sure that you are getting something out of it, we’ve also included a recommendation for a tool that you can use in order to step up your caricature creation.

Step 1: Get a Reference Photo.

Any good caricature starts with a good reference photo. If you’re not familiar with the term, a reference photo is basically any photograph that you use in order to draw inspiration from.

When making a caricature, that usually means finding a portrait (like the one below) that you can directly refer to when making your caricature sketch.

Step 2: Exaggerate Features.

What is the point of caricatures? Well, it all comes down to the exaggeration of features. Whether that’s enlarging the person’s head to be half the size of a person or distorting the features of their face to make one more prominent than another. There’s an endless number of ways you can go about doing it.

Just remember, when making a caricature sketch, there are no such things as rules. While you do have a reference photo in front of you, you don’t have to draw it exactly as you see it. Make the eyes farther apart, exaggerate the lift of the eyebrows, give them a teeny tiny nose, etc., etc..

Just let your imagination run wild.

Step 3: Find a Reliable Tool.

And, finally, if you really want to take your caricatures to the next level, consider animating them. That is the main point of caricatures, after all.

And, if you’re going to go about doing such a thing, make sure that you have a reliable tool on your side. For example, having something like Wondershare Filmora Video Editor , a video editor that has an endless amount of presets and effects that you can choose from, may prove to be exactly what you need to get to the next stage of your caricature creation.

● Photo to Caricature is now possible in an instant with the use of a caricature maker app. These tools render an existing photograph with the use of filters and effects to create a caricature sketch worthy of any artist’s skill.

● There’s a lot of these caricature makers for you to choose from as well. Proven by the fact that we were able to easily find at least ten — all of which you can use (some in different ways) to transform your photographs into caricature works.

● Of course, if you want to take the traditional route and draw caricatures yourself, that’s possible too. Just remember the three tips that we outlined above: get a reference, exaggerate, and use good tools.

We’ll be focusing on the Apple App Store, in this case, but it’s important to note that most of these are available on the Google play store as well. (A link to the app has been provided for your convenience as well.)

011. MomentCam Cartoons & Stickers

The first of the caricature maker apps on our list is ‘MomentCam Cartoon & Stickers’ — this app is part of another tool called ‘Avatar Maker Bundle’, but it can be used on its own to create caricature versions of yourself that you can use to express emotions (an avatar, if you will).

This app was made primarily to help the user to create an avatar that matches their look (with accessorization features to complete the set). However, you can interact with other members of the community to create multiple avatars if you wish. Or, you can share your caricature pictures on social media.

02Color Cartoon Caricature Maker

This next caricature maker app uses a more realistic style akin to what is usually used for a political caricature of famous individuals and politicians. It’s called ‘Color Cartoon Caricature Maker’ and, while not as extensive in its features as the previous app, it can be used to turn an image completely into a caricature (which means that it can be used for photographs with more than one person or focus.)

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/color-cartoon-caricature-maker/id1448093448

03PicMagic- Cartoon Photo Editor

Up next, we have ‘Pic Magic’ which is better described as a ‘cartoon photo editor’ but still works as a serviceable caricature maker if all you’re looking for is a subtle enhancement of features (unlike what was shown in the political caricature maker we showed previously.)

Much like the second app, while it’s more suitable for enhancing the features of one person, it does work for group pictures as well.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/picmagic-cartoon-photo-editor/id1491645007

04Photic - Cartoon Yourself AI

This next app, called ‘Photic’ is much like our previously listed app, PicMagic. As you can see from the image provided, it can make a caricature of a photo but in a subtle way that is undeniably more of a ‘cartoony’ style than what you might be looking for. Keep that in mind.

The best part of it is that you can use it along with iMessage — making it very easy to share your finished caricature pictures with friends and family. The downside? It is best used for solo picture caricature-like only.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/photic-cartoon-yourself-ai/id1484108330

05ToonApp Cartoon Photo Editor

‘ToonApp’ is the next caricature maker on our list. As you can see from the image provided, the style of caricature is a lot more realistic here. Very similar to what you normally see of western comics (which only subtly changes the features of a person to look more rendered.) The best part of this app? Well, unlike some of the other options on this list, it works great for group pictures.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/toonapp-cartoon-photo-editor/id1540719743

06Voilà AI Artist Cartoon Photo

This next app is very similar to the previous one we introduced. It’s called ‘Voilà AI Artist Cartoon Photo’ and the main difference between it and the ToonApp app that we introduced earlier is that it uses a different caricature style. Not unlike what you see from 3D animations — which is a mix of realism and cartoony.

This tool, much like a lot of other alternatives, is best used for selfies.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/voil%C3%A0-ai-artist-cartoon-photo/id1558421405

07Caricature Hyper Face Morph

Now we go back to what most people usually consider ‘caricature’ with the ‘Caricature Hyper Face Morph’ app. This app, as you can see from the image below, allows you to morph a photograph into something more exaggerated (turning it into a true-to-form caricature; like what you would see in political caricature segments in newspapers or old animated short films.)

It works for group photographs surprisingly well as well. With the AI recognizing and applying the ‘morph’ effect to everyone.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/caricature-hyper-face-morph-from-photos-camera-shots/id587429629

08Face Caricature

The next caricature maker on our list is the app called ‘Face Caricature.’ The best part of this app, undoubtedly, is the fact that it offers several ‘caricature’ styles that you can choose from. So, you aren’t stuck with just one cartoon style. It’s better for selfies, however — it doesn’t work as well as a group picture caricature maker.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/face-caricature-cartoon-photo/id1007143753

09Cartoon Caricature Face Camera

This is a camera tool that you can use in order to take photographs and turn them into caricatures. There are several caricature art styles for you to choose from, which are always fun. Plus, it offers easy save-and-share features. As a final note, this app works best as a selfie app.

URL: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/cartoon-caricature-face-camera/id1424277519

10Face Distortion - Screw Up Your Face

Though this app isn’t exactly a ‘caricature maker‘ it does work like one. It’s just a matter of finding the right distortive effect to mimic the look of an actual caricature sketch. The best part about it is that it’s basically a custom caricature maker — one that allows you to control exactly what features are exaggerated.

Part 2 How to Draw a Caricature — Step by Step Guide

Now for our promised tutorial. Here, we introduce a quick and easy way to draw caricatures. Take it more as an overview of what exactly caricatures are and how you can create them by following a specific set of steps. Ah, but of course, just to make sure that you are getting something out of it, we’ve also included a recommendation for a tool that you can use in order to step up your caricature creation.

Step 1: Get a Reference Photo.

Any good caricature starts with a good reference photo. If you’re not familiar with the term, a reference photo is basically any photograph that you use in order to draw inspiration from.

When making a caricature, that usually means finding a portrait (like the one below) that you can directly refer to when making your caricature sketch.

Step 2: Exaggerate Features.

What is the point of caricatures? Well, it all comes down to the exaggeration of features. Whether that’s enlarging the person’s head to be half the size of a person or distorting the features of their face to make one more prominent than another. There’s an endless number of ways you can go about doing it.

Just remember, when making a caricature sketch, there are no such things as rules. While you do have a reference photo in front of you, you don’t have to draw it exactly as you see it. Make the eyes farther apart, exaggerate the lift of the eyebrows, give them a teeny tiny nose, etc., etc..

Just let your imagination run wild.

Step 3: Find a Reliable Tool.

And, finally, if you really want to take your caricatures to the next level, consider animating them. That is the main point of caricatures, after all.

And, if you’re going to go about doing such a thing, make sure that you have a reliable tool on your side. For example, having something like Wondershare Filmora Video Editor , a video editor that has an endless amount of presets and effects that you can choose from, may prove to be exactly what you need to get to the next stage of your caricature creation.

Before you delve into the profession of creating 3d cartoon filters, you need to understand or decide if creating animated characters is something you would like to do. It’s not going to be smooth as you will get frustrated at some point, you will get confused, and it will be challenging, but in the end, it is rewarding because it is an expression of your mind coming to life. You are the one to breathe life into your characters who represent your imaginations. You will also have to infuse a great deal of your creativity to create beautiful and exciting characters for others to enjoy. Meanwhile, let’s first understand what 3d animations mean.

Becoming a 3d animator is not a feat you can achieve in a short time. It is not days, weeks, months, or even years. Like any other profession, a professional 3d animator must have put in a great deal of work, mixed with a lot of passion and love for what he is doing. To become successful as a 3d animator, you must love what you are doing or be ready to put in the work.

This article will expose what you should learn to create beautiful 3d animation cartoons, including what to expect as a 3d animator.

In this article

02 [Differences between 2d animation and 3d animation](#Part 2)

03 [A roaster of 8 best 3d animation software.](#Part 3)

04 [Top 3 3d animation making mistakes to avoid](#Part 4)

Part 1 What Is 3D Animation And The Process of 3D Animation?

animation is a term that describes the art of creating 3-dimensional images and placing them in a digital environment. It is a process that uses motion to bring objects, characters, etc., to life.

It is also known as computer-generated imagery, and it is currently the most common animation type for feature films.

Various software and programs are designed specifically for 3d animations and allow the animators to bring the objects to life.

The process of 3d animation happens in three(3) stages;

● Modeling

● Layout and animation

● Rendering

Modeling in 3d animation involves generating the objects or characters either by using a modeling tool or using a real thing. The real object is scanned directly into the computer, where other processes follow. You have total control over your character and how you want them to appear by modeling. You decide the weight, specifications, feel, etc. However, scanning objects save a lot of time. You must add texture before modeling your character or reviewing it before moving to the following layout and animation.

Layout and animation stage: A layout is determined when the generated objects move to this stage. It involves creating a set/scene where the objects can position. Layout first happens before animation does. After adding the objects and characters, they get animated using animation variables. After this, you use motion capture or keyframing to give life to the models in the scenes.

Rendering: Rendering is using software or programs. It is not something to do using just your computer. These tools can generate the scenes into the finished image according to the client’s requirements or set goals.

Creating cartoon background images or any other form of animations is a process that requires a lot of planning and work, which sums up a lot of time. To learn 3d animation, you must be ready to give in ample time as it is a profession that requires some time to handle.

The process listed above also shows the creativity requirement required to succeed in the 3d animation industry. To think that you must create the scenes, which is the layout stage, means you have to be creative in your imagination. If you then decide to model your character from scratch using modeling tools. That also requires another job of thinking and extracting a lot of your creative juices.

Part 2 What is the difference between 2d animation and 3d animation?

Anyone can decide to learn animation with no plan in mind or understanding of what the profession involves. animation is different from 2d animation, and if you want to learn animation, you need to understand the distinction between these two.

animation can have a lot of creative possibilities, whereas 3d animation has a lot of natural abilities. The visual style of both types of animation is explicitly different.

3d animation is a more intensive technical process than the various stages mentioned earlier. It would most likely involve different specialists to handle them to get a more professional output. However, 2d animation consists of drawing the characters frame by frame.

animated cartoons are in The Simpsons, Pinocchio, the Lion king, etc.

animations are like the ones Dreamworks, Pixar, produce. They include the avengers, the bad guys, etc.

Part 3 A Roaster Of 8 Best 3D Animation Software

Several 3D animation software exists in the market, both free and paid. If you are a animation creator or love animation for fun, you can use the free software to make your videos, cartoon photos, 3d cartoon faces, etc.

With many animation software available in the market, you can only fully trust a few.

Here’s a roaster of 8 best 3D animation software you could use to create the cartoon monsters you’ve always been curious about;

● Filmora

● Blender

● Maya

● Wings 3d

● Adobe Animate

● Cinema 4d

Part 4 Top Three (3) 3d Animation Making Mistakes To Avoid

As we initially mentioned, 3d animation requires an intensive technical process. It is a skill that you need to hone over the years by paying attention to detail, being highly creative, and daring to succeed.

Here are 3 mistakes you must avoid during the animation process;

● Forgetting the ‘why’ factor

● Over-animating a scene

● Not giving your viewers time to take it in

Forgetting the why: In a animation cartoon, every move, walking step, and smile is essential. Every character represented in your cartoon background is there for a specific reason.

You would be making a mistake that will affect the result if you lose focus on this reason. Your viewers won’t find your cartoon believable if the moves and acting don’t add up.

Your characters don’t just move because they want to move. Something must have spurred the motion or reaction. It could be for what happened to them, what they heard, or saw another character did in the scene. Do not neglect the why of the act.

While animating, focus on why and keep revisiting until all your characters and objects are knitted closely together.

Over-animating a scene: This is another mistake animators should avoid. If you animate your characters, everything may be a mess if you animate the background and foreground. Simplicity is how to get this thing, keep it simple and focused.

Do not have much going on in each scene but only where you need the attention of your viewers. Animators that do this end up confusing their viewers with no direction.

You can use camera effects such as depth of field to make your audience focus on the point you are trying to make in the particular scene.

Not giving your viewers time to take it in: This is another 3d animation making a mistake you should be careful of. Not giving your viewers time to process the happenings on the scene before the next.

This can be avoided by timing and measuring cuts such that any animation at the start of a new scene is timed to enable the viewers to take it in. You can ask for third-party criticism on your work to find out how your animation is received and see pointers to mistakes such as this. The third party could be your colleague or friend.

Note: You can easily avoid any error or mistake or modify your 3D animation with the help of the Wondershare Filmora video editor. That will provide a solid base for featuring 3D animation.

● Ending Thoughts →

● 3D animation refers to using motion to breathe life into inanimate objects, and they can create animated videos and animation cartoons.

● 3D animation is highly technical, unlike 2d animation

● You can avoid the above 3d mistakes if you remain objective and open, and ready to accept constructive criticism.

● Becoming an animator is a fun thing to do, and it allows you to be free to express your creativity while entertaining other people entirely.

● Before you start learning 3d animation and create cartoon photos, ensure that you have read through all that we have explained here to have good information about what you are going into.

Before you delve into the profession of creating 3d cartoon filters, you need to understand or decide if creating animated characters is something you would like to do. It’s not going to be smooth as you will get frustrated at some point, you will get confused, and it will be challenging, but in the end, it is rewarding because it is an expression of your mind coming to life. You are the one to breathe life into your characters who represent your imaginations. You will also have to infuse a great deal of your creativity to create beautiful and exciting characters for others to enjoy. Meanwhile, let’s first understand what 3d animations mean.

Becoming a 3d animator is not a feat you can achieve in a short time. It is not days, weeks, months, or even years. Like any other profession, a professional 3d animator must have put in a great deal of work, mixed with a lot of passion and love for what he is doing. To become successful as a 3d animator, you must love what you are doing or be ready to put in the work.

This article will expose what you should learn to create beautiful 3d animation cartoons, including what to expect as a 3d animator.

Part 1 What Is 3D Animation And The Process of 3D Animation?

animation is a term that describes the art of creating 3-dimensional images and placing them in a digital environment. It is a process that uses motion to bring objects, characters, etc., to life.

It is also known as computer-generated imagery, and it is currently the most common animation type for feature films.

Various software and programs are designed specifically for 3d animations and allow the animators to bring the objects to life.

The process of 3d animation happens in three(3) stages;

● Modeling

● Layout and animation

● Rendering

Modeling in 3d animation involves generating the objects or characters either by using a modeling tool or using a real thing. The real object is scanned directly into the computer, where other processes follow. You have total control over your character and how you want them to appear by modeling. You decide the weight, specifications, feel, etc. However, scanning objects save a lot of time. You must add texture before modeling your character or reviewing it before moving to the following layout and animation.

Layout and animation stage: A layout is determined when the generated objects move to this stage. It involves creating a set/scene where the objects can position. Layout first happens before animation does. After adding the objects and characters, they get animated using animation variables. After this, you use motion capture or keyframing to give life to the models in the scenes.

Rendering: Rendering is using software or programs. It is not something to do using just your computer. These tools can generate the scenes into the finished image according to the client’s requirements or set goals.

Creating cartoon background images or any other form of animations is a process that requires a lot of planning and work, which sums up a lot of time. To learn 3d animation, you must be ready to give in ample time as it is a profession that requires some time to handle.

The process listed above also shows the creativity requirement required to succeed in the 3d animation industry. To think that you must create the scenes, which is the layout stage, means you have to be creative in your imagination. If you then decide to model your character from scratch using modeling tools. That also requires another job of thinking and extracting a lot of your creative juices.

Part 2 What is the difference between 2d animation and 3d animation?

Anyone can decide to learn animation with no plan in mind or understanding of what the profession involves. animation is different from 2d animation, and if you want to learn animation, you need to understand the distinction between these two.

animation can have a lot of creative possibilities, whereas 3d animation has a lot of natural abilities. The visual style of both types of animation is explicitly different.

3d animation is a more intensive technical process than the various stages mentioned earlier. It would most likely involve different specialists to handle them to get a more professional output. However, 2d animation consists of drawing the characters frame by frame.

animated cartoons are in The Simpsons, Pinocchio, the Lion king, etc.

animations are like the ones Dreamworks, Pixar, produce. They include the avengers, the bad guys, etc.

Part 3 A Roaster Of 8 Best 3D Animation Software

Part 4 Top Three (3) 3d Animation Making Mistakes To Avoid

As we initially mentioned, 3d animation requires an intensive technical process. It is a skill that you need to hone over the years by paying attention to detail, being highly creative, and daring to succeed.

Here are 3 mistakes you must avoid during the animation process;

● Forgetting the ‘why’ factor

● Over-animating a scene

● Not giving your viewers time to take it in

Forgetting the why: In a animation cartoon, every move, walking step, and smile is essential. Every character represented in your cartoon background is there for a specific reason.

You would be making a mistake that will affect the result if you lose focus on this reason. Your viewers won’t find your cartoon believable if the moves and acting don’t add up.

Your characters don’t just move because they want to move. Something must have spurred the motion or reaction. It could be for what happened to them, what they heard, or saw another character did in the scene. Do not neglect the why of the act.

While animating, focus on why and keep revisiting until all your characters and objects are knitted closely together.

Over-animating a scene: This is another mistake animators should avoid. If you animate your characters, everything may be a mess if you animate the background and foreground. Simplicity is how to get this thing, keep it simple and focused.

Do not have much going on in each scene but only where you need the attention of your viewers. Animators that do this end up confusing their viewers with no direction.

You can use camera effects such as depth of field to make your audience focus on the point you are trying to make in the particular scene.

Not giving your viewers time to take it in: This is another 3d animation making a mistake you should be careful of. Not giving your viewers time to process the happenings on the scene before the next.

This can be avoided by timing and measuring cuts such that any animation at the start of a new scene is timed to enable the viewers to take it in. You can ask for third-party criticism on your work to find out how your animation is received and see pointers to mistakes such as this. The third party could be your colleague or friend.
