Thanks Dave I've been doing my shorts using desktop and the long way. I'll try and automate it properly now to improve my workflow with my next character update. Also are you hiring?

@okaysamurai 7 дней назад

Not hiring currently, but I'd make a post about it if that ever changed in the future!

Hello David, your channel is so interesting !!! I want to animate an image, is that possible with this software? And I'd like to use Stan's voice from South Park for talking, is that doable? Thanks!

@okaysamurai 7 дней назад

Yes, both are doable with Character Animator on the desktop. You would need to break it into layers in Photoshop or Illustrator, and rig and animate it in Character Animator. You can import any voice to do the lip sync, so if you had an audio clip of Stan you could import that and do the same Timeline > Compute Lip Sync Take From Scene Audio command I do here.

Hi Dave I like to play acoustic guitar and electric guitar in every cool music and I learn to play acoustic guitar and electric guitar in RU-vid video about acoustic guitar lesson and electric guitar lesson in some channels in RU-vid. My favorite instrument that I play is acoustic guitar, electric guitar and vocal.

If can use Firefly to change the appearance of a character that will be great!

@planesmart75001 12 дней назад

I have one issue. i have my lip sync working great. Then I wanted to change the audio file. The new audio file is longer than the old one. I stretched everything out. Now when the animation is run, the lip sync stops where the old audio file ended. The new lip sync works but only up to where the old one ended. I tried everything I knew, and I still cannot get the lipsync to go the full distance.

@okaysamurai 7 дней назад

I think you would need to recompute the longer lip sync with Timeline > Compute Lip Sync. But if you made changes to the existing sync and only want the end, split the audio file (Edit > Split) so you separate out the end, mute the audio track you've already done, and try the compute command to get the new lip sync duration. You may also need to select your scene in the project panel and make the duration longer in the right properties.

@okaysamurai 4 дня назад

Yep! Check out this Fresco tutorial which talks about importing a character drawn in another program: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eOUkhY7vhc4.htmlsi=WyVabA72py-NTzGz

@prosperityokechukwu1503 4 дня назад

Are my comments been deleted here or what? I have been asking how to group puppets in the timeline

@okaysamurai 4 дня назад

Not sure about comments, I only delete spam and non-constructive comments. There is no puppet grouping per se, but you can add two puppets to a timeline and then drop that timeline in another timeline, but you won't be able to do much with it. Typically I would recommend doing this kind of stuff in After Effects with imported CH recordings.

@@okaysamurai ok thank u how can we do pencil draw illustration on character animator? Like I have a graphics tablet and a pen and I want to make a cartoon teacher drawing on the board. But I've been so puzzled on what to do. We only have draggable no pen effect

@okaysamurai 3 дня назад

For that I would watch the Fresco tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eOUkhY7vhc4.htmlsi=BhozS6X-jsYhP8do. You can follow those same guidelines for any digital illustration. You could also draw with a physical pencil and paper and scan, but digital artwork is going to be easier to organize and rig.
