Overview of this book

Adobe Character Animator is a power app for non-animators that provides easy rigging and easy-to- understand tools that enable you to create entertainment or business videos in no time. This guide to Character Animator gives you a comprehensive overview of the app, helping you learn the entire process—from importing a character designed in Adobe Photoshop to animating a sequence. Complete with background art, multiple character rigs and Character Animator project files, this book will show you how to animate a scene in Character Animator from start to finish. Starting with a character PSD from another artist, you’ll organize and condense the file to prepare it for rigging and animation. From there, you’ll systematically rig the character while exploring advanced behaviors and triggers to animate a complex scene that takes advantage of the app’s best features. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to create appealing animations in Character Animator for any purpose.

Summary

After some refining and polishing, our rig is now closer than ever to being ready for animation. Sometimes, going back to the PSD file multiple times is required if additions are needed or errors need correcting. Depending on your needs, you can choose to animate eyelids or jaws. Head turns add yet another dimension to your project.

Up next, we will look at how to use preset animation to help speed up the production workflow of your project.
