Road Trip Animation

Day 64

In this sketch, I worked with my students to teach how to use adobe character animator using one of their pre-made rigs. Throughout the process, I break down how to customize the character, add accessories to the rig and then control the character using several methods.

I incorporated all methods into this animation. The first is using the built-in camera function and tracking to control the rig. This also included voice/audio recording and lip-sync. The second was to manually move the character using a mouse. The third was to use the built-in control buttons provided with premade positions. Lastly, I went over how to apply keyframes to create simple parallax illusions.
