Character Animation

Welcome to this section!!!! Character animation is one of my favorite sections that I teach. I looked up at one point in my career and realized that I wasn't really teaching animation effective. I then began to really do my due diligence in researching this section. I began to teach it that year and this section of lessons significantly changed my class!!!


We have never looked back since then. In fact I am looking to do more of this type of training with every passing year. Enjoy these lessons they are great

The File you need

This is a character made and distributed by Ramtin for free on the internet. It has been professionally rigged and gives you the features that beginning animators need. Animating is not nearly as difficult as it can be if you are using a substandard sub-quality rig
