What is Norman?

Hi, I'm artist and coder James Paterson.

Norman is the beginnings of an animation tool I’ve always wanted. It was built using JavaScript, it runs in a web browser using WebVR, and it lets me animate naturally in 3D using VR controllers.

Check out the project site. Watch an animated short made entirely with Norman. Watch the making of Norman. To use Norman in its current form you’ll need an Oculus Rift, and to clone/run the code locally. A more comprehensive, user-friendly experience is in the works.

You can also view & play with Norman animations at the top of normanvr.com using a viewer created by Dan Motzenbecker. Check out Dan's viewer source code here.

A huge thanks to Google Creative Lab for helping me carve out the time and space to work on this!

A proper README with instructions is coming soon, but for now... A bunch of GIFS!
