Why Direct Animation?

Until recently every individual picture, or frame, has had to be manually adjusted over and over. This has been a painstaking and time consuming process, and it is very difficult for the animator to have any perspective of what the end result will look like. Objects with physically complex motion (such as helicopters, airplanes or cars) are extremely difficult to animate with results look anything like real life.
 
Craft Director Studio calculate and simulate the physical movements of different objects, creating a key-frame for every frame automatically the whole time. All the animator has to do is steer the object with a joystick (or any other input device). It basically works like a computer game.
