Creating images that move the learner


Tata Interactive Systems (TIS) has been successful in merging traditional Cel Animation techniques with the latest technologies to create spectacular Web content for our clients. We have used 3D animation in our products to create sequences that are difficult to represent in real life through videos. Our approach has helped learners to visualize sequences and manipulate objects in a realistic setting more effectively—thus enhancing the learning. The entire 3D experience is also more credible and immersive than its 2D counterpart, thus creating a more engaging experience for the learners.

The key to creating state-of-the-art animation lies in establishing and maintaining a team of core specialists who continue to evolve methods and processes to keep pace with the changing requirements of the medium. Our animators specialize in creating animations for the Web using tools like Macromedia Flash and 3D Studio, optimizing the content for delivery over low-bandwidth connections without losing on the quality of animations. 

The animation team in TIS has 30 trained specialists with professional studio experience in conceptualization, storyboarding, character design, modeling, staging, lighting, and camerawork.
