The focus of this research is to explore an alternative means of computer animation by allowing two-dimensional vector models to be viewed with directional variations. By doing this, the animated model is composed of 2D shapes but can be viewed from multiple angles like a 3D object without having the structural limitations and complex rendering of a 3D mesh.
