Once you have the basics of 3D modeling down, it's time to learn the real power of 3ds Max! In this beginner-friendly tutorial, we start with very basic animation techniques like animating moving objects, and progress into more advanced operations like animating modifiers, physics and cloth simulations, and using path and position constraints. This crash-course is meant to blast your way through the learning curve, so you can start creating your own animations in no time! You'll be surprised how easy animating with 3ds Max really is!

After this crash course, you'll have the foundation you'll need to animate just about anything. In future tutorials, we will go in-depth on character animation, using motion-capture files, and more procedural workflows for really advanced animations! But first.. the basics!
