The Tricks to create SketchUp Animation

SketchUp is not only a tool to create 3D designing. With the help of it you can add movement or transformation to the object. You can view the angle from different scenes in the SketchUp. It is the series of scenes that are displayed in a succession to give a hands free tour of the model. SketchUp supports both single video animation file export (in the form of an Audio Video Interleave or AVI on Microsoft Windows and QuickTime on Mac OS X) and multiple image file export.

Though SketchUp only can create an animation but standard is not world class. It will be a blessing for us if we get a plug in which we can create scene base animation not only to the camera but to groups and components. Now the Proper Animation is here to meet the demand of real time animation in SketchUp. This plug in is very easy to figure out and use. The script’s premise is that objects in your model – groups and components – can each have multiple positions. You have to assign each position to build an animation. The animation involves using SketchUp’s already existing Scenes feature. The most praising aspect of the Proper Animation is that it automatically connects positions to scenes.

The first thing you need to do is download and install the plugin. Its developer is MorisDov; you can find it on his site. Proper Animation also comes bundled with its own tutorial PDF. If you're looking for even more encouragement/inspiration/support, you can check out the plugin's SketchUcation thread. In this way you will have a super quality animation within SketchUp.
