# Animation Generation 💃

Creating realistic animations is one of the **most challenging tasks in game development.**

Usually, animation is **either made by hand** (but labor-intensive) or using **expansive motion capture technology.** Fortunately, we are starting to see some AI tools **that generate animation based on a text prompt and some that extract animations from a video.**

## Generate Animation with Unity Muse Animate 🔒💸

With Muse Animate, you can **generate animations based on text-prompt directly on your Unity project 🤯.**

We're going to use it in an upcoming unit 🔥.

## Do motion capture without expansive tools with [Plask.AI](http://plask.ai/) 🔒💸

With [Plask.AI](http://plask.ai/) you **simply capture a video with your phone, import it to the website and you can extract and edit the animations.**
