We propose a system for producing 3D animations using miniature models. Our system enables users to interact with 3D objects and/or camera by direct manipulation of miniature models and enhances miniature models power of expression using projection-mapping technology. That is, users can control all 3D objects including camera in six dimension during the recording process. Using robots to reflect user-determined movements, the system also supports the production of repetitive step-by-step animation in which several objects move simultaneously. We developed a prototype on the basis of our approach and identified several flaws in the prototype.
