Research Abstract	In this reserch, we introduce a simple and highly efficient technique of generating motion with emotion using the motion warp algorithm. The motion warp algorithm has 2 control functions: attitude-control and enhancement function. These functions control both pose and motion. We have implemented the proposed technique as a plug-in system for animators in character animation production. The proposed system allows to easily and efficiently add emotional features to an existing motion that are created by both keyframe and motion capture
