Is Saturn's moon, Titan, located near the asteroid belt around Saturn?
I'm curious as I am creating a 3d animation, and I don't want to represent Titan incorrectly, could I have a link or explanation to it's position near Saturn?

There is no "asteroid belt" around Saturn. The asteroid belt is between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. If you mean the _rings_ of Saturn, Titan is located in the same plane as the rings, but outside them.

Titan has a semi major axis of around 1.2 million kms from Saturn.
Saturn's rings stretch out to around 140,000 kms from the planet.
So Titan has a tight, steady orbit which is tidally locked to the planet at the plane of its equator.
Captured? I don't think so.
