Character animation involves more than the principles of animation
and the mechanics of motion. As an animator, you've just been asked
to animate a scene where a character arrives to work, late. While
you know how to animate the character's movements, how should the
character enter into the scene? Does the character enter slowly?
Quickly? Doggedly determined? Hesitantly? Is he frustrated, or
merely apathetic? What is the larger context for the character
being late? The answers to these questions can certainly affect how
to animate you character. Unique, believeable characters that
think, feel and captivate your audience are ones that involve
emotion, performance, personality, acting and story. Successful
