what is 3d animation?
407583
The aspect of 3d animation is to take a cartoon into the third dimension, giving it more life and extended visuals. 3D animation is usually comprised using 3d software such as 3ds max or Maya on a computer. Movies such as Toy Story or Finding Nemo are just two examples of fantastic 3d animation. There are many cartoons as well that utilize 3d animation, such as Jimmy Nutron on Nick Jr. Hope that helps.

If you mean Animated Movie Videos (AMV), then I suggest using Maya by Autodesk (after its acquisition to Alias)\n\nMaya, used in most films today, is named for the Sanskrit word meaning "Illusion" and is a popular, proprietary integrated 3D software suite, evolved from Alias PowerAnimator. Maya comes in two main versions, Maya Complete (the less powerful package) and Maya Unlimited. Maya Unlimited is now priced similarly to other proprietary 3D programs, but used to be considerably more expensive. Maya Personal Learning Edition (PLE) is available for non-commercial use, and is available at no cost though.\n\nhttp://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=6902573

You should use macromedia flash for this project. Id the animation simple or complicated? Flash may take some time for you to get familiar with, and the software is expensive to purchase, but this is the tool for the job.

"Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is the use of a wide range of computer-based tools that assist engineers, architects and other design professionals in their design activities. It is the main geometry authoring tool within the Product Lifecycle Management process and involves both software and sometimes special-purpose hardware. Current packages range from 2D vector based drafting systems to 3D parametric surface and solid design modellers."\n\n"Multimedia is the use of several different media (e.g. text, audio, graphics, animation, video) to convey information. Multimedia also refers to the use of computer technology to create, store, and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is also a pleonasm as media is the plural of medium, hence it is a double plural."\n\n"Animation is the optical illusion of motion created by the consecutive display of images of static elements. In film and video production, this refers to techniques by which each frame of a film or movie is produced individually. These frames may be generated by computers, or by photographing a drawn or painted image, or by repeatedly making small changes to a model unit"

While this is not truly an area of expertise for me, the open-source project, "Blender3D," ( http://www.blender.org ) has some great resources along this line.  Blender3D was once a commercial product, competing with the likes of SoftImage and 3D Studio Max.  However, the product was dropped into the open-source community and development has taken off like never before, which included documentation such as what you may be looking for.

software engineer is a pretty broad term.  Animation is pretty specific.  The BEST thing to be is flexible.  I think all engineer should have strong skills in web technologies since it is definitely the area with the most opportunity.
