How do you animate fabric moving in the wind?
In this fabric animation tutorial, professional animator Edward Kurchevsky breaks down the fundamentals of how to animate cloth step by step. Using a dummy from Baldur’s Gate 3, he demonstrates how a cape reacts to wind and how animators create believable cloth motion.
You’ll learn how to:
-Understand how wind affects objects
-Show direction and different wind speeds
-Match fabric movement to the wind’s force and direction
-Consider the shape and structure of fabric as it moves
-Animate fabric independently from the character’s motion
Edward also explains common beginner mistakes and shares practical tips that can help you improve your fabric animation.
