Character and Narractive: Producing a 3D animation

In 3D animation there are more things to do than there is to do in 2D animation, such as when you create a character in 3D you then have to model the character, then rig it, then make controllerst for it so that you can then move it later, and then animated it. Where as in 2D you jsy draw a character and then you will be able to animated the character straight after. Also in 3D animation you have to think about what the character is doing so that you can rig it correctly, because if you don't you fill find your character going through things like when they put there hand down on a table, the hand might go through it. Texturing a 3D character is harder to do as well because you have to have to unfold the skin of the character so that it turns 2D and then add texture to that in photoshop. but you'll have to think about texturing the unfolded skin because it will look a bit deformed. Not many people can make a 3D character becauase you need to develope the skill for it and forsome that has taken many years, but for others they just hire someone else to do it for them.
