so amazing! thanks!!

I've been employing many different ways to set up character rigs ranging from Daniel Geis's approach to using 2.5D layers precomped, to false paralaxing as well as DUIK....I like having a million ways to do this technique. I feel like it needs to be more public. I was really surprised to find out peopl struggling with this problem.

Thank you!

This tutorial was great, but are you able to do a full 360 head turn and maybe a full body turn.

Hey man! awesome tutorial! Would you consider making a follow-up which covers solving the same problem with hand rigs? I've seen plenty of tutorials of how to rig a hand but they never go a hand being viewed from a single angle. Thanks again :)

Nice.

Great>.< Helpful

Thanks, bro. This helped :)

glad to hear it!

This is pretty cool, i mean you could take this even further by fully changing the angle. How would you make them look up and down?

It would be similar to how I made the eyes blink. You just have to pull them out of the main head turn rig and then you have control over their scale and position again.

great tut dude, I wonder if you could help me, at the point where you are manipulating the anchor points for the head shape, how are there so few points? mine seems to have hundreds and it also separates the skin and outlines into two groups (I have only just started with illustrator but my layers are basically the same as yours)

Basically I only have a few points because that's how I built it in Illustrator. I knew I would be manipulating the face in AE so I specifically made the head with as few points as possible. You can delete anchor points manually in both AE and Illustrator, but if you are in Illustrator you can also go to Object > Path > Simplify... and you can use this to remove anchor points as well. As for the skin and outline, in Illustrator my head is literally just the one shape with both a fill and a stroke on it. If you build it this way, once you bring it into AE and turn it into a shape, it should remain one shape with a fill and stroke. If you have a fill (skin) in AE and you want the stroke to be in the same group, just click on the stroke of that group and add one, then delete your other stroke with no fill. I hope this helps!

thanks man, yeah I was using the brush to create the face and then filling the object, so i moved on to using the ellipse tool and it has less anchor points and is one shape in AE, success! Thanks again.

Awesome, glad I could help! Happy animating

so i made a 2d character in photoshop and sent it into after effects to rig, i have also finished the lip sync, but nowI want to use the 3D camera, but when i make my character 3D everything goes out of order and i don't know what to do, i want to zoom and pan

Hmmmm, yea that is tough. Changing things to 3D after a rig can often break things or throw them out of wack. AE also acts a little wonky when you have some layers 3D and others not. If it were me I would probably just start from scratch again and start by making all layers 3D. It shouldn't take you as long to rig it a second time since you've done it once, and it will be less of a headache than trying to reposition things now.

Why do so little animators make their face shapes in Animate CC? Why Illustrator?

Does this work on feet?

I've never tried it myself but in theory it could work the exact same way
