Character Animation

Maga Animation Studio has always had a special attention for Character Animation. CGI, 2d digital or traditional, digital cut-out or stopmotion, we've experimented it all and still have a great deal of fun doing it!

GIVING LIFE TO OUR CHARACTERS IS OUR NUMBER ONE PASSION.

We mainly work with CG animation, improving our pipeline and tools, to let our animators concentrate on the most important thing: giving life to characters just as they imagined it in their own heads. Our technical directors constantly update their rigging tecniques but also specific tools for animators, such as fast selections and clip and pose managers.

Our CG animator's approach relies first of all on a great deal of research for references and on the attitude of our characters, also implying drawn tests for character pose studies. The main steps are the building a layout for main timing and staging, achieving a blocking to define key poses and actual timing and finally refining the animation including lip sync and all the little extras that make the difference.
