Abstract

A method for accelerating 3D animation production, the method comprising: inputting a text string command; analyzing grammar of the text string command to find out the subject, the verb and the object or the quantity and object, through a main program. Then, the main program deliveries order to a subprogram which controlling the subject, to execute judgment and treatment of the action and behavior of the subject.
