MotionBuilder

Experience a new nonlinear editing paradigm for virtual production that moves beyond video and audio. Autodesk® MotionBuilder® real-time 3D character animation software builds on emerging techniques embraced by some of the entertainment industry’s most successful studios. You can acquire, aggregate, and refine data with greater reliability and precision; create, edit, and play back complex character animation in a highly responsive, interactive environment; and work with a display optimized for the individual requirements of both animators and directors. These capabilities make MotionBuilder ideal for high-volume film and game animation, previsualization, motion Capture, and performance animation.
