Video description
In this SolidWorks Animation training course, expert author Matt Perez will teach you the tools and techniques needed to animate in SolidWorks. This course is designed for users that already have a fundamental understanding of SolidWorks.
You will start by learning about the motion manager and animation wizard, then jump into learning about point to point animation, including keypoint creation and interpolation methods. Matt will then teach you about kinematic animation, like how to add motors and position manually. This video tutorial will cover how to animate lights and cameras, edit animations, and animate material. Finally, you will learn how to render and save your animations.
