i literally never comment on RUclips videos but the fact that someone taught me the basics of audition that i started learning a few hours ago and a complete in-depth tutorial about Character animator in an organized-well explained 2H video made me appreciate how much dedication and time you've put in this so Thank you mister.
This is a whole semester of school work curated into 1 hour of high quality real-world best practice. A graphic designer can become an decent animator after watching this course. Thanks for this and all the amazing content on your channel.
I just had to stop the video in the middle and comment that this is one of the clearest videos describing Adobe software that I've ever witnessed. Just amazing. I came here to learn about one application but learned so much about others. Thank you so much!!
I literally only today learned that this software existed, and I feel so much more confident in understanding what it can and cannot do after watching this video. thank you for the work you put into it
I really like these type of long videos explaining everything, your content and character animator are the things got me into animations and stuff. You're the best teacher for this software.
This video is my Character Animator bible! I'm working on my first character & first animation and I replay this video hundreds of times. Great job and thanks so much for putting it together.
they do a lot of work at Disney, but they also have many teams working on it at once so it takes less time. still takes a while but less time than one guy doing it alone. many hands make light work as the amish say.
I owe a lot to this video, Few years back i stumbled upon it and started animating, Now I am a successful animator , though I use a different Adobe software now but this video will always stay close to my heart!
Inspirational and I learnt a lot! I went from it being a normal Tuesday night to "OMG I WANT TO MAKE AN ANIMATED VIDEO". Love seeing the whole process including script writing etc. Great video.
I have come back to this video for your useful tips so many times . Can't say enough how thankful I am, Dave. Not sure if you're still developing CH as I've seen less and less new videos of yours recently. Wish you all the best, buddy.
This has to be THE definitive tutorial on Character Animator on all of Al Gore's internet. I will remain immensely appreciative. Thank you for your service, hard work, attention to detail and dedication. Thank you.
Looking back on how I completely tried to animate everything from scratch using Macromedia Flash and seeing this masterpiece is like a secret recipe. Loving the vid! Cheers!
Dave - You are amazing!!! I get so much from all of your tutorials, but this one in particular is always something I find myself wondering 'how do others do this, what is best practice' Not only that, but all of your little hints and tips... I learnt more in this in 10 minutes than I have watching hours of after effects and premiere pro tutorials! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
I am just speechless!! this was freaking amazing, seriously. I have been an architect for 12 years and decided to career shift because I think animating is my passion. This video is out of this world. I can't thank you enough, u're very talented and approachable. U make is look so easy and i hope i come to find it effortless as u do in this video one day.
I am about to start creating my first character and I can't thank you enough for your tutorials.. please never stop doing what you do because you are videos are valuable
I saw this tutorial and got motivated to create one of my first videos on the channel. It took me about 5-6 hours and the result was pretty good compared to the time taken. I couldn't get started before. I wanted to learn everything in Animate and After Effects to have the perfect video. But this got me started. YOU got me started. I am so happy right now. Finally, after 2 years of just planning stories and music I am finally getting some work done. I have decided to bind myself under a time limit to make projects now. Had I not seen your video, I wouldn't have known that this is possible. YOUR hard work is helping SO MANY other people to work harder. It is just wonderful to see how a single person can affect so many people at once. I believe I am only going to move forward from here. I am never going to forget that I got started here. By you. Thank you and have a good day :')
Thank you so much for this! I've been using Animate, Premiere Pro, and Photoshop for many years but I don't know After Effects and am just learning Character Animator and trying to figure out the most efficient workflow to incorporate the CA stuff into my videos. I've been animating since I was a kid and I am so glad to not have to manually do lip sync anymore. Amazing.
Working on an animated short to pitch a show I wrote in film school so I really appreciate this. Finally, a video that's coherent. Finding beginner Adobe videos on youtube is damn near impossible. THANK YOU!
I would search for fire png sequences or spritesheets online. The ones I use a lot were by a company called POW studios, not sure if they're still around anymore.
Dave! Just wanted to thank you for this (and all your tutorials). I use performance capture in character animator in my own cartoons and honestly I wouldn't have had a clue how to do that without your help. Thank you!
@@okaysamuraiWell, you've definitely helped me! I honestly don't think I'd be making what I do without your help (or I would be it would take me A LOT longer). 😀
Bro, for a very long time, I haven't felt so much love directed into me like in your tutorial, thank you very much. BIG LOVE ! World needs more awesome dudes like you !
Thank you so much... your voice is so soothing and captivating. yOur instructions, wording and steps are all so clear and comprehensive. We can tell you are passionate making this video to teach us.. thank you so much. You deserve 1 billion views.. xo
Hey I tried downloading this character 'Dave' but its not working as I have 1.5 verison, can you please share this puppet file for version 1.5 It will be a great help.. Love from India..Learning a lot by you and seriously this is the video because of which I will be starting my new channel...
Unfortunately this character only works with more recent features. You're 2 versions behind (we're currently on 2.1) so I would recommend finding a way to upgrade if possible.
THIS is the absolute best tutorial on this around. I JUST started messing with this late last night. I started drawing a character today and it is already in Character Animator and ready to go. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge/wisdom. I have wanted to animate since I was a little kid, and it has always daunted me until now. I just uploaded my first video for my art history class- and it’s because of you. Thank you so much
*snaps out of trance* Wha... What happened? *realizes 2 hours have passed & it's 3 in the morning* I have no regrets :D Thanks for the polished video, I learned more about The Adobe Suite in 2 hours than in 2 years xD Liked & subscribed, continue doing what you're doing man!
I'm deeply grateful to you for the effort and work that you dedicate to others, including myself, so we can move forward and continue learning to, at the same time, contribute to making this a better world. Thanks, thanks, thanks.
This is a great video to show my client when I drop a price tag on them and they say "It's just a simple video. It shouldn't take you too long, right?" LOL... Great video man. Your workflow is exactly like mine. Glad to know I am working like a Samurai!
This is such a useful tutorial thank you so much for this! I've been playing around with the Dave character, but for some reason I can't seem to get IK rigging to work. I place all of the joints in the correct locations, but when I add the IK behaviour it's not picking up any of the handles, do you know why this might be?
It should just work...I would watch the updated Limb IK video first: ruclips.net/video/e85HGSAS80g/видео.html. If it persists, please post a screenshot, video, or File > Export > Puppet (.puppet file) to adobe.com/go/chfeedback for more help.
I've been watching tutorials basically since youtube day one and I'm watching a few per day. This video is one of the best I've ever watched! Thanks a lot for providing such awesome material for free! Very well prepared and done. Excellent stuff.
Dave! I can honestly say I have learned more and drawn more inspiration from your videos than I did during my entire time in university. I studied TV production, but felt like I had no real focus or drive, and therefore never got what I probably could have from the learning experience. after graduating, I almost stopped creating stuff all together. This was back in 2018. Now, 2 years later, I have just finished rigging my first puppet which I created from scratch, with the hopes of making my very own animated series. This simply would not be the case if your videos didn't exist. Thank you for making me want to truly create art again. You are my sherpa, up the mountain of CH. Love from ya boi, Dave xxx
Hi Dave. Thank you so much for all the tutorials. I wish every piece of software had someone like you. I downloaded your Dave Character and love it. But there are some things that I cannot figure out: - In it right arm, the elbow is tagged as "Left Elbow" - Even though Limb IK is applied to both the arms, they can be stretched to abnormal lengths Thank you so much, Tony.
Ok, fixed version is up. Now I remember - I made this character before Limb IK was fully bakes, and I had to trick it into making two left arms essentially to bend the way I wanted it to. The new one should work better I hope!
@@okaysamurai Thank you so much Dave. Mr. OkaySamurai (whichever name you prefer :D ) Keep being an inspiration to all of us. I bet you cannot fully know how much impact your work has on others. Thank you Dave.
An excellent tutorial that explains the entire animation pipeline using Character Animator and After Effects. It's worth it to watch every second of this... multiple times. Thank you for sharing your process!
You have no idea how helpful you are to people like me just starting out! Your commitment to this video is absolutely amazing and as much as I have a lot of experience with photoshop just subtle things like bringing in a character animator project into after effects rather than rendering an alpha and bringing it in is immensely helpful. The depth you have gone to is perfect and I will definitely be bookmarking this lesson and keep coming back to it. You're he best dude!!!
I do wonder if you could do a video on your actual setup though. I know you showed us your microphone but what kind of Mac do you use, what web cam, etc. Just to get an idea on what the best setup is. Even to the level of how you light yourself while recording.
Thanks! I'm using a MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2016), use the built-in webcam, and either the AT2020 I show in this video or a CAD u37 usb mic. We try to make CH work as best it can without needing extra expensive equipment, but I do think that getting a better dedicated microphone is a good idea for any computer audio stuff. For lighting I'd say most of the time I'm just using the normal office lighting or natural light from an open window in my home office, but every once in a while I just pivot and shine a desk lamp at my face, nothing fancy there. Other than that, I have some cheap headphones and a mouse from Amazon and that's kind of it!
Okay Samurai I have tried lighting the wall in front of me and reflect the light which works pretty well. But I do get a lot of natural light but I must say your face tracking looks a lot better. Suppose it’s just trial and error. Anyway I look forward to looking through all your videos. What you do is great!
This was basically a perfect video. You don't talk to slow, you don't drone on about stuff that doesn't matter, and you don't skip important stuff. All I want to know is who are the 63 dizzy bastards who saw all of this and were like "Nope. This is trash. I hate it so much I'm going to downvote it". You did piss me off though because I just spent ages learning the basics of Animate and now it seems that I should've been learning After Effects and Character Animator instead. Gah!
Hey hey, I finally put out my first animation show here on RUclips. Thank you so so so much for teaching me how to make my own character!!! If you can I would love for you to see it 😍😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm planning to add these manually. Because the video is so long, RUclips's automatic detection doesn't work, and because it's unscripted I don't have text to easily copy and paste. But I will be doing this within the next week - you're not the only one wanting this!
@@okaysamurai use rev.com - don't do it manually! Sure, it'll cost $100 at almost two hours but adding subs manually for a 2-hour video is a day-long job
I've used rev for a bunch of our videos and they transcription is spot on. You just send them the linknto the video and they'll send you the .srt file the same day
'if you can remember that earlier in the tutorial - I think that was 5hrs ago' so worth every minute Dave. Thank you for creating this awesome tutorial. 45:34 Night fall, Dave keeps giving!
full comprehensive video, it realy cleared my mind on how animation works. great video for the biginners to get thier hands on the required tols and learn the main chunk of them as well. super imressed super grateful stay blessed keep up the good work
@Okay Samurai, Please consider adding scripting ability in this software. May be, if we are able to do something like Walk(2s) Trigger("smile") Trigger("wow") will be great.
Hey Dave, brilliant video. I’m new to character animator and this is just what I needed to get started. One or two places went a bit fast for me but I’ll just slow the video down at these. I’m really looking forward to going through some of your other videos. Many thanks. 👍🏻😎
i literally never comment on RUclips videos but the fact that someone taught me the basics of audition that i started learning a few hours ago and a complete in-depth tutorial about Character animator in an organized-well explained 2H video made me appreciate how much dedication and time you've put in this so Thank you mister.

New Animation Channel 1000 Subscribers Need. Please Guys Help me in this.
RUclips is full of videos and tutorials but the way of teaching only a few ppl know how to deliver the idea ... You are a PRO .. Thank you
My God, so much work for such simple animation. Imagine the pain Disney goes through to do what they do.
Yes - they are incredible and an inspiration for sure.
And think...some time ago, artists would hand draw and color each frame for the entire film.
@@garthzader even longer time ago there wasn't even colors. that's why old photos are black and white. so sad.
they do a lot of work at Disney, but they also have many teams working on it at once so it takes less time. still takes a while but less time than one guy doing it alone. many hands make light work as the amish say.

everytime time i say "i wanna know how to do something (like the eyebrows for example)" he just addresses it this is awesomely amazing!
Working to complete my masters in technical communication and want to be ADOBE certified next... this channel made me so happy I cried. Thank you.

Now, this is awesome. I have to change up my Friday night plans for sure!
Wow. It is crazy that you can do *all* of this (build out characters, facial mocap animation, video export, etc.) within Adobe. Very cool.
This was a lot, but a great place for me to start. Thank you for your dedicated work. I am excited to get started!
Hey Dave, brilliant video. I’m new to character animator and this is just what I needed to get started. One or two places went a bit fast for me but I’ll just slow the video down at these. I’m really looking forward to going through some of your other videos. Many thanks. 👍🏻😎
