The revenue of the global 3D animation software market to grow at a CAGR of 17.89% over the period 2014-2019.

Computer animation is the process of creating animated images and videos with the help of computer graphics. 3D animation is a type of computer animation and includes a combination of modeling, animating, and rendering techniques. Animators model the object, animate it in a 3D environment, and then render the image for the final output. Many 3D animation software products are available in the market and are used to develop 3D images, 3D designs, 3D computer graphics, and 3D video games.

This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global 3D animation software market for the period 2015-2019. To calculate the market size, the report takes into account the revenue generated through the sales of 3D animation software. It also presents the geographical segmentation of the market along with the key leading countries. The report covers the market segmentation based on end-user segments of 3D animation software.

Hybrid animation is a combination of 2D and 3D animation and lends an artistic and realistic bend to 3D computer-generated objects. Currently, technological limitations prevent animators from producing effective combinations of 3D objects with 2D animations. However, emerging technologies such as non-photorealistic tools and toon shading will trigger the usage of hybrid animation, enhancing the overall picture and visual effects. This technology is widely used in computer games as it retains the 2D look despite the inclusion of 3D.

According to the report, the increased demand for 3D games has led the gaming industry to become the largest end-user in the global market. Currently, 3D animation software products perform complex animations and provide accurate visual animation effects in 3D. The growing market for 3D games and their popularity among children and adults will foster the market growth.

Further, the report states that widespread piracy has had a considerable impact on the market growth.
