Following on from Creating CSS Animations, i have decided to release the exporter script used to create the animated orange test guy.
As the title implies, the exporter script runs in Blender. Simply construct a 2D scene using planes, add in an animation track, run the script and click Export. It’s as simple as that!
Each plane is exported as a HTML DIV. If present, any Ipos will be exported as CSS keyframes.
The exporter even supports parenting, so you can build up complex hierarchies of elements which can easily be transformed in an animation, or even javascript.
Note that currently the exporter only supports Webkit-based browsers (i.e. Chrome, Safari, MobileSafari). It also has limited support for Firefox (sans animations).
For the curious, there are 3 examples:
As for the actual exporter script, it’s available on github.
Happy animating!
EDIT: For those of you who for whatever reason want a video demonstration, there’s a video of it in action on youtube.
