Using Animate, it would faster, and you can always export Animated GIFS from there too.
I think its better used for a puppet that you will use over and over again, and when you want to bring life to a character by having him talk and syncing his mouth movements. Character Animator is great but it takes a while to organize everything in Photoshop and then to rig it in Ch. Sounds like Animate might be your best bet. And without a lot of the frames it will look clunky. Because your next step would be to make those PNGs into an animated PNG and then import that into Captivate. Seems like an awfully lot of work to have the characters walk across the stage. So there was no need to mask anything, you probably just needed to turn off the background layer in photoshop and save! So character animator puppets have transparent backgrounds by default.
My intentions are to give each user the option to pick the animals in the order that they prefer… So, how do set it up for each animal image sequence to play in one slide after the appropriate match is made please? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I want the horse image sequence to play after the users made a match with the horse source image and drop target. I am am looking for some guidance on the next step, which would probably be adding some JavaScript. Then Media Encoder exported over 100 PNG, but I will probably only use 20 – 25 of them in the my Captivate activity.

Then I exported it with the alpha channel option and resaved it as a PDF sequence in Media Encoder. I had to go back to the original file in Photoshop and add in a layer mask, which updated automatically in Character Animator because of dynamic syncing. I was able to get the horse exported from Character Animator with a transparent background.

Join me October 4th to learn how to make your own Character in Photoshop, that can be animated in Character Animator, and imported into Captivate to Make YOUR eLearning Come Alive …. I added some transitions, adjusted some timing, added background audio… and exported…Īnd the final RESULT – is below (video 4)! I created a mask in Premiere, so it looks like the monkey is behind me, and then used motion tracking to match the the mask so it is always hiding portions of the monkey. Then I imported Video 1, Video 2, and Video 3 into Premiere to composite them all together. I also used a Character from Character Animator and made it come alive with my performance, and exported (video 3). Then I imported the monkey Photoshop file into Character Animator where I was able to rig it up and make it come ALIVE with my own performances, and mouth movements via my web cam, and mic. Make it Come Alive with Adobe Character Animator So I took a Picture of a stuffed Monkey I have, brought it into Photo, dropped out the background, and cut it up to separate pieces(head, eyes, body, arms, legs, etc.) SO I video taped myself I paused and made believe Chloe(one of the Characters) was talking as I looked down at her (I didn’t want to redo my take anymore, so the looking down is a bit off – but ehh), and then I also planned ahead to turn to look at the monkey character behind my back. I thought it would add some flavor to a boring introduction about my experience, if I add some Animated Characters. My topic is “ Make Your eLearning Come Alive with Animated Characters” so I thought it would be a good idea to have some characters help introduce my topic! Selecting a region changes the language and/or content on name is Mark, and I’M SPEAKING at the Adobe Learning Summit 2018 in Las Vegas, October 4th.Īdobe asked us to create a little video introducing ourselves and our topic. Setup instructions for use with a specific behavior are described in the behavior-specific subsections in Behaviors in Character Animator. This document covers the basic layer structure and naming guidelines. Use both the methods as appropriate for your workflows. You can start by auto-rigging in Photoshop or Illustrator and then make more changes and refine movements in Character Animator. If you prefer, you can use the Puppet panel to assemble a puppet from individual layers and identify how layers are controlled using the Behavior tools.
The following section describes the necessary structure and naming of elements in a Photoshop or Illustrator file for automatic rigging to work. External inputs give added expression to two-dimensional artwork. The external inputs, such as face tracking, body tracking, audio analysis, mouse clicks, and keypresses, in Character Animator can then control the puppet.
Behavior is automatically rigged when a puppet is created from the artwork. When the layers in a Photoshop or Illustrator file are structured and named in a specific way, tags are auto-assigned to the layers for the character features they represent (chest, head, eyes, mouth, and so on).
