develop animation and graphics

palette has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi all
Does perl provide any modules through which we can develop animation games, graphics. Since I am interested in animation and i am been working in perl I would like to know is there any modules which support animation. How well Perl language is suitable to develop animation/ graphics softwares like 3dsMax,photoshop. I think Perl must be using some API's that will call C's library function or so. Can anyone throw some light on this subject.

Thankyou.

For 2D graphics, check also ImageMagick. It can generate animated images in common formats (GIF, MNG, etc.).	[reply]
