Repeat Steps 3 and 4 with the other parts of the body, which consist of duplicating, erasing and redrawing the different parts of the character. You can do this by using the pen tool if you only have a mouse, and then merging the shapes with the body layer (Cmd/Ctrl+E), or with the brush tool if you have a drawing tablet.
Step 04 – Redraw Joints of the BodyĬarefully redraw the neck and the shoulder of your character. Make sure to leave space for the neck of the character. Now create another duplicate of the Original Character layer (Cmd/Ctrl+J), rename it as “Body” and delete everything except for the body. I typically like to hide the other layers to see my progress clearly. Rename this layer as “Original Character” Step 02 – Create the Headĭuplicate the character layer (Cmd/Ctrl+J), and delete every part of the character except for the face. From there, you can import the character provided or use one of your own. Step 01 – Get StartedĬreate a new document (Cmd/Ctrl+N) at 1920×1267 pixels, then add the background. To make your life easier, I will provide the animation presets as well. Once you have the character ready for animation, you can move it in any way you want, and you can use it to create other animations as well. All of this will be accomplished by first preparing the character in Photoshop, adding cell shading for a dramatic effect, and easily animating it in CrazyTalk Animator 3. This will be depicted with the character being tired, breathing heavily and showing different emotions on his face letting us know that he is thinking and considering options to take down his adversary.
We will work on creating a dramatic scene of a warrior having a hard time against his enemy.
Well, in this tutorial you will learn how to take an image of a character (it can be the one provided or one of your own), split it into the different body parts, create a rig and animate it easily using CrazyTalk Animator 3. Maybe something to use for a video game, app or for a dramatic scene. Have you ever wondered how you can create a simple animation with cool characters?
