Helicopter - Motion Path and Graph Editor

This course explores the fundamentals of motion path animation in 3D, using a helicopter takeoff sequence as the central project to demonstrate how to design smooth, realistic trajectories and control object orientation. Students will gain practical experience applying motion paths to characters and vehicles, while also learning to troubleshoot common flipping issues that occur when objects follow complex paths. By the end of the lesson, participants will understand how to diagnose orientation problems, apply corrective techniques, and refine their animation workflows to achieve polished, professional results. Learn how to refine animation using the Graph Editor.
