===how far are we away from animation?===
I can make animation even now, but it is time-consuming (in meanings of computer processor time), typical frame rate for animation is 25 frames per 1 sec. So even 10 sec long animation will means 250 frames (pictures), i.e. about 3-4 hours on my not weak computer plus 1-2 hours of pre and post processing. It doesn't worth to do.
