Dynamic animation lets you create realistic motion using the rules of physics to simulate natural forces.You can modify an animation sequence on layers without permanently altering the original, or simply organize your keyframe animation onto layers. Layered animation lets you create and blend animation on separate layers.For example, you can use the captured motion of a horse to animate the skeleton of a quadruped model. Motion capture animation lets you use imported motion capture data to apply realistic motion to the characters in your scene.For example, when you assign a car model to a motion path that follows a road in your scene, the car follows the road when you play the animation. When you attach an object to a motion path, it follows the curve during its animation.
