Could anyone advise me on creating 3D maps animation with QGIS software? When I using ArcGIS, it can be achieved by using ArcScene. But I'm not yet find the equivalent function in QGIS. Is any ArcScene equivalent in QGIS that equal to did this?
There is a plug-in for QGIS. Have a look at

As far as I know, in QGIS you are able to do 3D maps (with QGIS2threejs plugin) and 2D animations (with TimeManager plugin, as described here http://anitagraser.com/2011/11/20/nice-animations-with-time-managers-offset-feature/). But there is not a plugin for doing a 3D animation. However, there are some opensource projects that would be interesting for that:
1. Blender, a 3D modeller which you can use importing your data from QGIS. You can find an example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX8BeuiXWeU
2. Horao, which is a visualisation tool for 3D GIS data: http://oslandia.github.io/horao/index.html
3. OpenWebGlobe, which allows you to create your own virtual globe applications running in the web browser. http://www.openwebglobe.org
I would use the first option, combining QGIS + Blender, which would give you many possibilities, although it may be difficult at the beginning.
