Question

Looking for templates that are little more complex.

I am currently looking for some more complex templates for puppets.  I want to study a few and then build a brand new character for this.

I watched all the videos (thanks Okay Samuri) for all the tutorials.  But having viewed them all I really want to work on a more complex character.

Where can I find some detailed puppets with more behaviors and actions?  Learning hands on is something that I love!

Kenn.

For those who did not view the Tech Wednesday lecture...... here is a link to see the project that I was working!

Thank you all so much for the useful info!  And of course to Dave.... his tutorials are the best!  Easy to follow and really make it simple to create using Character Animator.

I am currently working on a new character (of me actually).  Building an animated CV/Resume as I think in today's world that will be very interesting as compared to the typical CV.

I have already drawn a bunch of new, more accurate phonemes, but don't know how to add them so that they work so that they work

Accidentally logged in under my old Adobe ID.....  that is why it looks different in the comment above.

Also interested in finding examples of other mouths.

The two puppet links that we've shared are https://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-6029 (official adobe pack) and  http://adobe.ly/297v7Wg (okaysamurai puppet pack). There should be a range of simple and more complex characters there, and several mouths. I'd also recommend digging into the "Incidental Assets" folder of the "Start Here" project - Andrew and Funkenstein are definitely among the most complex puppets we've seen and they have a lot of advanced features.

In the last Tips episode I talked more about making custom mouths, and the new Red Monster mouth I made is available here: Adobe Creative Cloud .

Hope that helps a little!

I am doing a lecture on Adobe Character Animator for the Adobe Community Professionals program next week for Tech Wednesday.  I have designed a character.

Well the space monkey has a rocket pack.  Any idea on how I can add flames from his booster?  Something similar to what the Cyberman (the worker that turns into the blue iron man) had on his feet (the audio was a little messed up on that part of that video).  If you like I can send you a screen shot of the character or the entire character.  Right now I am about to build the hands and tail.  All the rest is finished.  Might make a second leg with feet facing down when he flies (this would trigger with the flames).
