Character Animator This may or may not include texturing and animating the character, but you will still need to be familiar with the entire animation process in order to generate a character that will move naturally after bones are added. Much like a traditional cel animator from the 2D animation world, the 3D character animator must be thoroughly familiar with, and have a gut sense for, creature locomotion and human expression. After an actor is mo-capped, the character animator applies the movement to the game character, hand-repairing and enhancing the action to look realistic and natural. www.videogametimes.com /character-animator.html   (1675 words)
