LONDON — (BUSINESS WIRE) — November 10, 2014 — Growing consumption of computer animated content is prompting a CAGR of 15.09 percent from 2014-2018 in the Global Animation and Design Software Market, says research firm TechNavio.

Audiences worldwide are demanding better, more immersive virtual experiences from movies and video games. As a result, production houses have started relying on advanced 3D technology, which is driving huge demand for animation software worldwide.

About the Report

A new report from TechNavio emphasizes a growing need for animation software from both professional production houses as well as individuals.

The animation industry has evolved over time, inspiring many individuals to take up animation as a hobby or leisure activity. Many software vendors have identified this trend and have started creating basic animation software for non-professional individual users.

“Though open-source softwares are easily available on the internet, they lack many features, and do not provide users with a complete experience. This presents a great opportunity for vendors to provide simple, tailor-made animation software to individuals,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.

“Customized animation software helps vendors stand out from the competition, increase their revenues and locate alternative revenue streams.”
