3D AI Animation Course:
This course guides you through animating a 3D character using AI powered Mocap & Text-To-Motion tools. Plus shows an advanced method to clean up the animation.
Plus swap the character with an image reference, create a quick 3D environment and animate a camera.
Plus a new module creating a full 3D character from an image reference is being added this week. (*early November)
Extra content coming very soon...
Skill Level: Semi-Advanced
The course is accessible for all, though familiarity with 3D tools and compositing techniques (i.e. After Effects, & Blender) would be beneficial to work through the course and use the skills learnt in wider productions.
Limitations:
- The course concentrates on designing and animating a humanoid character mixing 3D and AI tools.
- The course creates a single scene, but the skills taught can be applied to much larger productions. With character consistency being acheived.

Jon Draper
Hey! I'm Jon Draper, an animator and AI studio consultant with a passion for bringing characters to life and telling stories. My journey kicked off in the UK, where I studied illustration and animation. Where my 3D degree film snagged a Royal Television award - which was nice!
Over the past 20+ years, I've been on a wild ride through the world of animation. I've dabbled in everything from 2D to 3D, film, mastering After Effects, VFX, and video editing along the way. In 2013, I took the plunge, moved to the coast and started Stormy Studio. We've had a blast working with global companies and picking up some shiny awards too!
Having tinkered with coding projects over the years, in 2022 I took a keen interest in AI, I eventually launched aianimation.com, a hub for creatives that's grown to over 4,500 users. I also run a YouTube channel where I geek out about AI animation and share tools and techniques.
From traditional hand-drawn animation to cutting-edge AI, I love pushing the boundaries of what's possible in this field. It's been an incredible journey, and I'm excited to see where this blend of creativity and technology takes us next!
