# How to: Animate a 3D Rotation Using Rotation3DAnimation
The following example shows how to make a 3D object rotate while it "wobbles" by using <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Rotation3DAnimation> to animate the <xref:System.Windows.Media.Media3D.RotateTransform3D.Rotation%2A> property of the <xref:System.Windows.Media.Media3D.RotateTransform3D> object applied to the 3D object.
