Computer animation has been considered for many years as a new media for advertising and special effects in films.

For these areas, interactive animation has become a key issue. Tackling the challenge of creating human motion through a computer, this book examines specific techniques such as cloth, hair and facial animation, and the co-ordination of animated objects.
