It’s Technology Tuesday and we wanted to touch on how we bring our characters to life. To animate a character you need to create “controls” that will allow you to add movement. These controls are like strings on a marionette. In terms of controls, the most complex character DreamWorks Animation has is the Hideous Zippleback from How To Train Your Dragon, which has a jaw-dropping 3,557 controls on his body! Hiccup by comparison has 868.
