Status: Lost

3D Choreographer was a 3D animation tool created in 1992 by AniCom Inc. It is perhaps most notable for being the software used to animate the infamous Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa.

Features

3D Choreographer was sold as a tool for anyone of any skill level to easily create 3D animations. Users can place actors (humans, animals, dinosaurs, objects and more) and set a path for them to move and act. Users can also import a picture of their head to place on top of actors.

History

3D Choreographer was created in 1992 by Jeffrey Freedman. It was consistently updated with new features until around 2006. 3dchor.com went down in 2009.

Availability

The software cost $199 to purchase through 3dchor.com. However, the full version has not been backed up anywhere. A non-interactive demo from 1994 was found on a cracked shareware CD-ROM.
