Abstract

A method for producing an animation sequence on a graphic display driven by a computer, including defining an object (70) that includes a geometrical description of an animated character (76, 78) and characteristics of social behaviour (74) of the character and animating an image of the character responsive to the characteristics (88). The character is programmed with a predetermined response, such as a rule governing motion of the character, to a sensitivity condition occurring externally to the object. The geometrical description of the object includes a geometrical skeleton characterized by a hierarchy of sub-objects connected by joints, the rule governing motion defines motions of the joints.
