Using physics-based approach, it allows for creating expressive and realistic animations for movies and video games. Unlike other animation software, character rig in Cascadeur includes physical objects. When you animate your character, you animate the movements of rigid bodies as well. Then, our tools use this information to calculate, visualize and, if necessary, improve the physical characteristics of the pose or animation of the character. This greatly simplifies the animation process and makes it possible to create complex action scenes without relying on motion capture and with no stuntmen involved. We also aim to make Cascadeur as convenient and user-friendly as possible, so it will be easy to use even if you are not a professional animator.
