Chapter 13. Animation for Architectural Visualization

From the beginning of the book until now, we have only worked with static images. But Blender can offer us a lot more than static images, if we start to work with its animation features. Showing a project with an animation makes a very strong impression on any person, especially for selling purposes. And Blender can offer us an extra feature, which no other 3D package can—interactive animations. Yes! With the integrated Blender Game Engine, we can create interactive animations. This enables the people who have to validate your project walk into all environments, and have a full virtual experience of your project.

This is a great feature and tool for anyone working with architectural projects. Additionally, we have the standard features in Blender to work with linear animations. So, let's get started with the animation basics and go further into how to make small movies of your projects.
