Hello! My question has to do with your work in videogames. I have little experience in the field so I was wondering how does animation and the actual games code come together to form a final product? I recently started learning c++ and so I familar with the coding side but im unclear as to when the two areas meet. Does a single program like Unreal Engine just throw the animation ontop of a skeleton of code?

Thanks!

Wow thanks for that answer! That sounds incredibly interesting. Still a bit confused on what the code for the mesh would actually look like but im sure there are examples online I could find. One more quick question, I've heard that c++ is a good language for game development but would you suggest someone master c++ or something newer such as python for game development? Specifically computer and console games not mobile games

Thank you for your answer, im trying to learn Unreal Engine 4 at the moment but theres alot to dive into initially so it's taking a minute.

Ah ok I've never heard python referred to as a scripting language but then again I am mostly in the c++ circle at my university. Thanks for the info!
