Abstract

Generating animation content can be tedious and result in ''messed-up'' code. We present a Java API that can be used for generating AnimalScript-based animations. It was designed to be extendable to other output formats, such as SVG or other scripting languages. Apart from describing the use of the API, we also show a concrete example that was generated using the API to illustrate the API's expressiveness.
