Similar to a virtual photography studio, Poser allows the user to load figures, props, lighting and cameras for both still and animated renderings. Poser is a 3D rendering software package for the posing, animating and rendering of 3D poly-mesh human and animal figures. By enabling beginners to produce basic animations and digital images, along with the extensive availability of third-party digital 3D models, it has attained much popularity. Poser is optimized for the 3D modeling of human figures.
Creating a fully digitized version of whoever it is in your imagination may take some dedication and time, however.Poser (and Poser Pro) is a 3D computer graphics program distributed by Bondware.
Even with no prior 3D modeling experience, it’s relatively simple to adapt, pose, and animate any of the many included templates. Whether you want to make animated movies or video game avatars or need digital crash-test dummies or animated crime scene reenactments, you can’t beat Poser 9 for out-of-the-box ease of use. Unfortunately, if you’re really hardcore and want a 64-bit version of Poser, you’ll have to upgrade to Poser Pro 2012 ($500). You can import BVH Motion, 3D Studio, PXF, Lightwave, or Wavefront Objects files into Poser 9 and export all of these plus RIB, VRML, COLLADA and various image file (PNG, TIF, BMP, TGA, JPG, PSD), so even if you’re not a fan of Poser 9, the manipulative content alone (imported into a different 3D animating program like Blender, Maya, or 3DS Max) may make it worth the money. If you are so inclined, PoserPython bridges the gap, where you can write your own scripts to automate tasks or record complex actions and run them in the Poser scripts menu. Blender, the open source alternative, favors keyboard shortcuts and in-your-face Python scripting code. Poser 9 focuses on ease of use and control via the mouse and interface elements such as menus, buttons, and dials. It will seem familiar to anyone who’s used a PC in the last five years.īoth Poser 9 and Blender use Python, but the ways the programs allow you to interact with the source code make the two very different. That said, compared to Blender (which is free), Poser 9’s user interface is attractive, fast, and easy to learn. The scale option, for example, seemed persnickety. Other controls are drag-and-drop, and it can be tricky to get the exact effect you want without practice. Using the sliders with a mouse lets you modify an avatar with high precision, but the most precise controls let you key in numeric values I just wish you could do that without having to open each slider’s advanced settings. You control most of Poser’s features with wheel-like sliders.
