Abstract
With the latest computer animation software tools, making objects move is becoming easier and easier. But making those objects look alive, look like they are thinking, is never that easy. Computer animation software tools will never do that for you. To make characters come alive takes a knowledge of traditional animation principles and acting, regardless of the animation medium. Remember, computers don't animate...people do.
