Part 1 What is Unity Used for?

Unity is a software tool friendly to all the game developers out there. This tool is used by the large community of game developers to power and create their game development projects. And, the software is more of a professional means and not a simple pared-down ‘game builder .’Unity also offers one of the most significant inbuilt features like rendering, physics, and collision detection. Thus, one of the powerful aspects of Unity is that game developers need not go out of the box and create everything from scratch. Instead, they are available with the physics engine required to develop games quickly. Another robust feature of Unity is that it includes an excellent ‘Asset Store’ where developers can upload their creations and showcase them to the whole community. So, that’s Unity and its uses in a broader scope!

Before we take you through the next section, it’s important to mention that Unity is also known as cross-platform IDE, where IDE stands for ‘integrated development environment.’ So, it can be called more of an interface with access to all the tools and resources required to develop games.

Apart from the game development, Unity is known for other excellent usage purposes as:

● Simulations

● Animation

● Architectural Visualization

● Previsualization for Film

● Interactive Experiences

Among these features only, we’ll describe Unity stop animation from looping in detail.

Part 2 How to Stop Animation Playing in Loop in Unity?

As we said, we’ll describe to you the most accessible definition of how to stop Animation in Unity. Thus, there are simple steps that we’d like to define firsthand before explaining the whole procedure with an image-centric step-by-step guide.

So, those simple steps to stop motion animation in After Effects in the loop also go like below:

Step 1 Go to the Project tab and select Animation.

Step 2 Open the Inspector tab.

Step 3 Uncheck the checkbox Loop Time, and you’re good to go!

We’ll describe the same, i.e., Unity stop animation from looping through the step guide below.

In this guide, we’ll explain right from applying the Animation so that you’d understand better. So, let’s begin without any further ado!

01Step 1 Delete animation folder

We have already created an animation folder in the folder named as own Animation, so click that folder, click the animation folder, and then another folder along with as shown below. Hold the Shift key and click another folder. Then, right-click the Delete tab as depicted below.

Similarly, you can also delete the Animation if you wish.

02Step 2 Create an animation for the subject

Now, you may have different subjects. We’re creating Animation on Mobile Joystick for reference, as shown below.

Now, hit the Create tab on the Unity panel below. Then, proceed to save your Animation in the folder you’ve already created for the same.

03Step 3 Give positions to the animation

Firstly, hit the red-icon button used for recording, as shown below.

Give the position on the left side after you click the button. And, then, clicking almost near to 3you can give the position to the right-hand side as shown below.

Now, the animation has been set. You can see the animation from left to right if you click the Play button. So, here, you can see the results of infinite loop animation, which won’t stop.

You can follow two ways to stop this Animation in Unity from looping, and we’ll describe both methods below.

04Step 4 Stop animation Unity Way 1

Go to the animation folder where you’ve created the animation and click the New Animation icon as shown below.

Now, you have to uncheck the Loop Time tab on the top-right corner of the Unity panel.

05Step 5 Stop animation Unity Way 2

Alternatively, you can click the Animator tab on the top of the Unity panel and double-tap the New Animation button. Then, it will also delete or uncheck the loop time, as shown below.

These were all the steps to stop animation Unity.

Part 3 How to Smooth an Animation in Unity?

After done with Unity stop animation, it’s time to smooth your Unity animation. Again, we will describe it simply if you’re used to the Unity platform and then with a step guide with respective screenshots.

So, stay tuned until the end to reveal the easy steps of smoothing an animation in Unity.

Select the Dopesheet at the bottom of the animation window. Then, you need to switch to the ‘Curves’ view once you create your Animation in the Dopesheet. These animation curves help you accelerate and decelerate animations so that the movement and other things can stop and start smoothly.

So, let’s begin with the step guide tutorial on the same as follows:

For reference, take an example of a metronome object imported from Blender to Unity. Here, we’ve grouped all the pendulum objects under one rotation so that when we move the pendulum, it pivots to the correct point, as shown below.

01Add the animator

So, the first step begins with adding the Animator component to the parent object. You can do this by clicking the Add Component tab on the Unity panel’s left side, searching for Animator, and clicking the Animator.

You will also need a controller to control the animations. Go to your animation folder, right-click, and select Create> Animator Controller tab.

Let’s call or give it a name metronome animator as shown below.

Then, you need to drag this into your animator component. Again, you need to go to your animations folder, right-click, select Create> Animations tab.

Now, give this a name pendulum full swing.

02Open the animator tab

Now, open the animator tab, drag this pendulum swing animation to that panel, and double-tap the yellow-colored New Animation button.

03Create an animation

With the game object selected, the animated metronome pendulum, in this case, we’d like to animate the X component of the rotation. So, you need to click Add Property> Transform> Rotation tab and click the + sign on its right, as shown below.

Now, click the plus sign automatically to set two keyframes, one at the beginning and one at the end. Now, click on end select all, and then delete for now.

04Add keyframes to rotate the pendulum

With the first set of keyframes and the pendulum all way to the right, go halfway and change the rotation to the left on the left panel of Unity. Then, add another keyframe.

05Slow down the animation

As you can observe, the Animation of this pendulum is in a straight line and feels unnatural to the eyes. Thus, we’re required to smooth this Animation now! For this purpose, go to the Curves; you can see the pink properties of rotation as going from one side to another.

Now, you need to adjust these pink curves. Start by adding a key to one of its sides, as shown below. After that, it is all on you how slow or fasts you want these values to be.

Here, you’re all done smoothing the animation in Unity after learning the stop-animation Unity tutorial.

You can even stop motion animation on Photoshop with the above tutorial.

There has been an advancement in the cartoon since the last publication made by “Paste” (a 5,800-word short story by Henry James). However, traditional cable networks have created exciting and new worlds and characters. Various streaming platforms like YouTube have allowed different creators to draw cartoon videos and publish them as they want. It has long been said that cartoons are specifically made for kids to enjoy on Saturday morning, but this is no longer the case as adults now enjoy watching cartoons in their free time.

Have you ever thought, “I want to draw myself as a cartoon“ and turn it into animation? Then you must get inspired. Cartoons now range from more complex characters.

Part 1 Do You Remember the Very Popular Simpsons?

The Simpsons is an American animated cartoonist Matt Groening created for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The Simpsons began in 1987 as a short cartoon shot on The Tracey Ullman Show and received acclamation throughout its early seasons in the 1990s, which are generally considered a “golden age.”

The popular cartoon series is a satirical depiction of American life epitomized by the Simpson family, consisting of Bart, Homer, Lisa, Marge, and Maggie. In addition, the show is set to run on television, and the human condition and the fictional town of Springfield parody American culture and society.

However, the Simpsons is a combined production by 20th Television and Gracie Films. Also, on March 3, 2021, the series got renewed for seasons 33 and 34, with 22 episodes for each. Thus, increasing the number of episodes from 706 to 750. Furthermore, its thirty-third (33rd) season came on September 26, 2021.

Before now, the Simpsons was the longest-running American animated cartoon series, an American sitcom, and American scripted primetime television series awarded in terms of seasons and number of episodes.

However, here are the ten best cartoon shows that have existed since the Simpsons:

01Futurama

This popular cartoon series, first released on March 28, 1999, is a cartoon series about utopian or dystopian. The central concept of this series is that it dares to imagine a future that’s pretty similar to the present using a bunch of crazy technology and space travel. Aside from being pretty, it is also hilarious.

02The Critic

This cartoon series was first created in 1994 by the Simpson’s writers Al Jean and Mike Reiss. This cartoon has ramped up its predecessor’s non sequitur and sight-gag humor featuring Jon Lovitz’s Jay Sherman, an unfortunate portmanteau of Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert.

03Bojack Horseman

Bojack Horseman is a dumb cartoon character series first created on August 22, 2014. However, four (4) days later, the series was renewed for a second season, released on July 17, 2015. It is often a searing portrait of addiction, failure, depression, etc., as humans talk to a horse.

04Family Guy

Family Guy, the snoopy cartoon series, was first created on January 31, 1999, which goes for anything for a laugh style. However, you might not like the Griffin family or the other residents of Quahog, but you have to admit that the show stumbles on a great joke.

05South Park

South Park debuted with “Cartman Gets an Anal Probe, “ first created on August 13, 1997. Although it started with some cheap animations, it has become one of the iconic animated shows.

06Batman: The Animated Series

The Batman animated cartoon series, created on September 5, 1992, is a favorite for many people, although it is more comedy than an animated drama.

07Gravity Falls

This cartoon animated series was first created on June 15, 2012, and is a mystery story about a few kids with a supernatural bend.

08Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

This popular cartoon animated series was first created in 1983 by cartoonists Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. This cartoon series is the definitive version, brightly colored and fun and fluffy.

09Doug

This cartoon animated series was first created on March 26, 1999, by Jim Jinkins and produced by Jumbo Pictures. It was one of the first animated shows on Nickelodeon before moving to Disney pictures. However, this show is creative and down-to-earth at the same time.

10Hey Arnold

This cartoon animated series came in on October 7, 1996. This show was the second after the first wave of the Nickelodeon show. It was the best of the bunch, and I liked the evolved version of “Doug.”

Part 1 What’s Text Motion?

Alright, first of all, let’s answer the big question! Text Motion, what is it and why should you be adding it to your projects ASAP? Well, in regards to the former, the answer is simple: text motion graphics is literally text animation that you can add to your projects to give it an extra bit of life and make it more show-stealing!

In regards to the latter, the answer is in its description! After all, why wouldn’t you want your projects to be able to capture more attention?

Have a look at the screenshot above that we included of an example project on the video editor, Wondershare Filmora . As you can see, we inserted text in motion at the very start. And despite being a still screenshot of said text motion graphics, the preview is eye-catching even when paused!

This is the kind of project that you can do yourself with the right templates and the right video editor. We’ve got your back on the first in the list coming up. And, as for the second, we recommend that you try out Filmora! It is, as you can see, quite an expansive software.

Part 2 10 Best Text Motion After Effects

Alright, now let’s move on to our promised Text Motion Graphics After Effects and Text Motion Graphics Premiere Pro templates. We’ve tried our best to pick a variety out for you so that you can have a good selection to choose from! You should also take the time to explore the different platforms where these templates are offered in case you end up needing a different look!

01Clean and Elegant Corporate Identity – Text Reveal (Mogrt)

The first on this list is the ‘Clean and Elegant Corporate Identity — Text Reveal’ by Mogrt. The title is quite explanatory in and of itself, but just in case you’re confused, it’s a template that was designed for professionals and brands to establish their corporate identity. The font is very modern in design, and it comes with several flare variations so that the reveal works out in the way that you want it to.

Other aspects, like the shadow blur, opacity, particle size (for the reveal), and text glossiness are also adjustable and can be changed at will based on your standards.

02Multipurpose Clean 3D Text to Title

The next text motion template is the ‘Multipurpose Clean 3D Text to Title’ also created by Mogrt. This one is text motion graphics that you can use for Premiere Pro and, with proper customization, and be used for just about anything that you want! It’s a very multi-purpose kind of graphic, one that you can maybe sneak in as an advert or for announcing celebrations or anniversaries!

As a final note, if you want to use this graphic as text motion for after effects , it is available for that as well!

03Simple Motion Text | Premiere Pro

This next template, the ‘Simple Motion Text’ graphic, is one that is available for both Premiere Pro and After Effects (though the link we’ve provided is for the Premiere Pro version!) As the name implies, the animation is quite simple, which may be exactly what you want, in any case. It certainly makes it very versatile (especially as you can change font style and color as you will). Making it the perfect template for a beginner that’s just starting out and doesn’t want anything too complicated.

0430 Glitch Text Presets For Premiere Pro | Mogrt

This next template, the ‘30 Glitch Text Presets’ by Mogrt is a Premiere Pro exclusive! It’s also quite fun in its particulars. As a template, it’s not as versatile as the one that we introduced previously, since the ‘glitch’ effect gives off quite the unique vibes, but that doesn’t make it any less potent at catching the eyes of your audience!

The best part, in this case, is that it comes with 30 pre-sets, all with fitting glitch sound effects (included in the pack) that you can use. Of course, there are other customization functions as well, including font style, color, transparency, and so on.

05Comic Bubbles MOGRT

Again, this next templated, called ‘Comic Bubbles’, kind of has its own unique vibe, making it inflexible in some ways but also more fun if that’s the kind of look that you’re looking for. Which, in this case, are literal ‘Comic’ text bubbles, like you would see in your old 90s comic (loud, pop-y, and with lots of bright colors!) The only difference from that to this is that these comic text bubbles move, allowing you to create ‘punchy’ text in between animated projects.

For your reference, there are 80 different comic bubbles included in the pack. All of which are easy to customize and will allow you to adjust colors, text, and transition effects (have a look at the video that we’ve linked if you want to see it in action!)

06Smoke To Text Reveal (Mogrt)

This next template, ‘Smoke to Text Reveal’ is another one that serves a very particular need. To help with visualization, the text motion graphics are at first obscured by smoke before it bubbles up into a crisp, modern text reveal! It’s perfect for those looking for underwater-themed text motion graphics. Or those who want to serve a hint of mystery with the smoke effect.

This is Text Motion Graphics - Premiere Pro. And the best part about it is that you can customize the text and the background at will — allowing you to truly make the template your own and make the most out of the smoke-to-reveal effect.

07Text Messages Toolkit

Want to appeal to the Gen Z audience? Then, the ‘text messages toolkit’ might be a fun text motion graphics for you to try. As you can perhaps surmise from the name, it’s a template that you can use in order to create ‘text message’ interactions. It’s customizable too! You can change the text box color, size, transparency, and just have a ball pimping it out of that’s what you want.

08Large Text Title Block

With the ‘large text title block’ template, you have the flexibility of the naturally more modern and minimalistic design, allowing you to use it for a wide variety of different projects. It works especially well for advertisements, if you’re wondering about potential uses, or as transition graphics between text to video!

09Blueprint Titles

Want something that’s a little quirkier? Or, perhaps, instructional? Then the ‘Blueprint Titles’ template is one that you can consider. As you can perhaps guess from the name, it allows you to create text motion graphics in a style that is similar to the kind of blueprints you usually see when working with design or architecture.

10Dynamic Minimalism

Sometimes, simple really is best! And, this next template, the ‘Dynamic Minimalism’ text motion after effects and text motion graphics premiere pro template is one that you might want in your arsenal just for the sake of your simpler projects! The kit comes with 30 different animations, as well as other customization functions that you can play around with to add a little personality to what are otherwise very minimalistic designs.

You can change the text box color, size, transparency, and just have a ball pimping it out of that’s what you want.

08Large Text Title Block

With the ‘large text title block’ template, you have the flexibility of the naturally more modern and minimalistic design, allowing you to use it for a wide variety of different projects. It works especially well for advertisements, if you’re wondering about potential uses, or as transition graphics between text to video!

09Blueprint Titles

Want something that’s a little quirkier? Or, perhaps, instructional? Then the ‘Blueprint Titles’ template is one that you can consider. As you can perhaps guess from the name, it allows you to create text motion graphics in a style that is similar to the kind of blueprints you usually see when working with design or architecture.

10Dynamic Minimalism

Sometimes, simple really is best! And, this next template, the ‘Dynamic Minimalism’ text motion after effects and text motion graphics premiere pro template is one that you might want in your arsenal just for the sake of your simpler projects!

03 [Tutorials for Making Great Text Motion](#Part 3)

Part 1 What’s Text Motion?

Alright, first of all, let’s answer the big question! Text Motion, what is it and why should you be adding it to your projects ASAP? Well, in regards to the former, the answer is simple: text motion graphics is literally text animation that you can add to your projects to give it an extra bit of life and make it more show-stealing!

In regards to the latter, the answer is in its description! After all, why wouldn’t you want your projects to be able to capture more attention?

Have a look at the screenshot above that we included of an example project on the video editor, Wondershare Filmora . As you can see, we inserted text in motion at the very start. And despite being a still screenshot of said text motion graphics, the preview is eye-catching even when paused!

This is the kind of project that you can do yourself with the right templates and the right video editor. We’ve got your back on the first in the list coming up. And, as for the second, we recommend that you try out Filmora! It is, as you can see, quite an expansive software. One that will allow you to truly make the most of the text motion graphics you’ll be able to create at the end of this article.

Part 2 10 Best Text Motion After Effects

Alright, now let’s move on to our promised Text Motion Graphics After Effects and Text Motion Graphics Premiere Pro templates. We’ve tried our best to pick a variety out for you so that you can have a good selection to choose from! You should also take the time to explore the different platforms where these templates are offered in case you end up needing a different look!

01Clean and Elegant Corporate Identity – Text Reveal (Mogrt)

The first on this list is the ‘Clean and Elegant Corporate Identity — Text Reveal’ by Mogrt. The title is quite explanatory in and of itself, but just in case you’re confused, it’s a template that was designed for professionals and brands to establish their corporate identity. The font is very modern in design, and it comes with several flare variations so that the reveal works out in the way that you want it to.

Other aspects, like the shadow blur, opacity, particle size (for the reveal), and text glossiness are also adjustable and can be changed at will based on your standards.

02Multipurpose Clean 3D Text to Title

The next text motion template is the ‘Multipurpose Clean 3D Text to Title’ also created by Mogrt. This one is text motion graphics that you can use for Premiere Pro and, with proper customization, and be used for just about anything that you want! It’s a very multi-purpose kind of graphic, one that you can maybe sneak in as an advert or for announcing celebrations or anniversaries!

As a final note, if you want to use this graphic as text motion for after effects , it is available for that as well!

03Simple Motion Text | Premiere Pro

This next template, the ‘Simple Motion Text’ graphic, is one that is available for both Premiere Pro and After Effects (though the link we’ve provided is for the Premiere Pro version!) As the name implies, the animation is quite simple, which may be exactly what you want, in any case. It certainly makes it very versatile (especially as you can change font style and color as you will). Making it the perfect template for a beginner that’s just starting out and doesn’t want anything too complicated.

0430 Glitch Text Presets For Premiere Pro | Mogrt

This next template, the ‘30 Glitch Text Presets’ by Mogrt is a Premiere Pro exclusive! It’s also quite fun in its particulars. As a template, it’s not as versatile as the one that we introduced previously, since the ‘glitch’ effect gives off quite the unique vibes, but that doesn’t make it any less potent at catching the eyes of your audience!

The best part, in this case, is that it comes with 30 pre-sets, all with fitting glitch sound effects (included in the pack) that you can use. Of course, there are other customization functions as well, including font style, color, transparency, and so on.

05Comic Bubbles MOGRT

Again, this next templated, called ‘Comic Bubbles’, kind of has its own unique vibe, making it inflexible in some ways but also more fun if that’s the kind of look that you’re looking for. Which, in this case, are literal ‘Comic’ text bubbles, like you would see in your old 90s comic (loud, pop-y, and with lots of bright colors!) The only difference from that to this is that these comic text bubbles move, allowing you to create ‘punchy’ text in between animated projects.

For your reference, there are 80 different comic bubbles included in the pack. All of which are easy to customize and will allow you to adjust colors, text, and transition effects (have a look at the video that we’ve linked if you want to see it in action!)

06Smoke To Text Reveal (Mogrt)

This next template, ‘Smoke to Text Reveal’ is another one that serves a very particular need. To help with visualization, the text motion graphics are at first obscured by smoke before it bubbles up into a crisp, modern text reveal! It’s perfect for those looking for underwater-themed text motion graphics. Or those who want to serve a hint of mystery with the smoke effect.

This is Text Motion Graphics - Premiere Pro. And the best part about it is that you can customize the text and the background at will — allowing you to truly make the template your own and make the most out of the smoke-to-reveal effect.

As you can perhaps guess from the name, it allows you to create text motion graphics in a style that is similar to the kind of blueprints you usually see when working with design or architecture.

10Dynamic Minimalism

Sometimes, simple really is best! And, this next template, the ‘Dynamic Minimalism’ text motion after effects and text motion graphics premiere pro template is one that you might want in your arsenal just for the sake of your simpler projects!

This was a question one of my friends asked me recently on the subject of animate rigging

To help them out (as well as other animation rigging beginners) I decided to compile some of the most popular tips on the subject in this article!

In this article

01 [The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need to Know About Rigging in Animation](#Part 1)

02 [How Do You Animate Rigging?](#Part 2)

Part 1 The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need to Know About Rigging in Animation

Before anything else, we’ve prepared a bit of an OVERVIEW on rigging in animation. This will cover most of the basic, need-to-know stuff to nudge you in the right direction and help the tips we’ve prepared to settle in more easily.

01What is Rigging in Animation

Rigging in animation is a technique used by animators to—quite literally—‘rig’ up a statistic digital character to act or move.

Even more simply, it’s a way of bringing literal life to your character models by introducing them to motion. The ‘rig’ in this case, is usually made as a sort of one-size-fits-all kind of tool, which you can use in order to create pre-made skeletal animations that replicate motions like walking, running, jumping, etc., and apply onto static characters. You can use animation software, like Maya in order to get this done!

02An Introduction to 2D Animation Rigging

2D animation is a more back-breaking kind of process. It’s what you see in a lot of older animations — where every frame needs to be drawn in order to allow for the illusion of motion in characters. This is how classics, like Mickey Mouse, are usually produced!

03An Introduction to 3D Animation Rigging

3D animation, as you can probably guess, is a more modern animation style. You see it in a lot of big blockbuster animated movies these days! Even Disney has since moved onto this style, whereas they were staunch supporters of 2D animation in previous decades. Now, a lot of their major productions, including titles such as “Tangled”, “Frozen”, and “Moana” are 3D animated.

In any case, this is more like what we described earlier — where skeletal ‘rigs’ are applied to static 3D character models to make them move.

04Key 3D Rigging Terms to Get You Moving

Finally, to make sure that you’re headed in the right direction, here’s a list of some of the more important 3D rigging terms that you’ll need to know:

Joints|Bones: This is pretty straightforward, but the Joints or the Bones, in this case, refers to the pieces of the skeletal rig that is used to create movement.

Driven Keys: Driven keys are there to help rigging artists make the movement appear more natural faster. It consists of two parts, the driver (which controls the animation) and the driven (the parts controlled by the driver).

Blend Shapes: This is an animation tool that riggers used mainly for facial animation (like lip-syncing). Basically, it allows them to blend or morph an existing shape to give it motion.

Inverse Kinematics: This is a method of animation that separates a part from the whole. Like how an animator can create motion in the wrist, for example, as a separate entity from the arm.

Forward Kinematics: Opposite of the previous style, this one is a method that follows a hierarchical progression.

Control Curves: This is a way of manipulating multiple joins in a rig in order to create one flowing movement.

Constraint: A way of limiting the positioning of a model or a joint.

Deformers: A way of enhancing rigs to produce a more organic model.

Skinning: This is the process of adding the 3D mesh to the joints.

Weight Planning: This is the process of planning how the weight of an object will affect its 3D mesh and the movement of its joints.

Facial Rigging: This is the process of setting up facial animation, similar to how you set up skeletal animation, but far more complex.

Part 2 How Do You Animate Rigging?

Now, onto actually talking about how you can start animate rigging. This section will guide you through the process in a way that should hopefully help you while in the process of learning about animation in general.

01How to Rig a Simple Character

This has been broken down into four distinct stages to make things as simple as possible! It won’t be discussing the tools you use, as there are plenty of tools you can use for animation, just the general process:

Step 1: Design Your Character

Before you even think about animation, you should start with designing your character (or characters.) This will give you a good basis on what kind of animation rigging you’ll need to work on for that character.

For example, for a humanoid character, a general skeletal rigging might be okay. However, for a creature or monster, their joints might be in different areas or they might even have additional joints regular human rigs don’t have!

So, start with a foundation that you can work from to make things easier on yourself.

Step 2: Start With Rigging Points!

When you have your character design ready, it’s time to start rigging joints! It’s best to start with the joints and leave the more finicky parts later. Basically, it’s always easier to start with the parts that can create big movements first!

Working on things layer by layer should help make things easier for you as well.

Step 3: Connect The Layers!

It’s time to put everything together to create smooth movement! Depending on what tool you’re using, this is usually just as easy as dragging things into place.

Step 4: Timing Your Animation

With the rig in place, the next thing you have to worry about is frame timing. Timing is important for ensuring that there is no break in character motions

02Beginners Tutorial on Shape Rigging

This one is a little more complicated, and should be improved more by trial and error, but here are a couple of tips that you can follow along with while exploring blend shapes in animation:

Master your sculpting tools first and foremost! The more familiar you are with the shapes that your tools can create, the better!

Symmetrical modeling is one way of making the process go a lot faster! Take advantage of this option to highlight components that you need to be affected in the same way and at the same time.

If symmetrical modeling is not working for you, independent modeling is a great way of making things appear more organic.

03How Auto Rig Mapping Works

Auto-rigging is the use of pre-made rigs in order to simplify the process. The tool automatically maps the areas where the characters and the rig are given the same symbol names and snaps them together to create joints for a motion to be applied.

04How Visual Rig Mapping Works

Visual mapping is a lot more complicated the auto-rig mapping, so it’s not something you want to jump into immediately. However, it is a must for animation riggers that work with unique character models. The process usually goes as follows:

Manually make connections starting with the joints.

Applying the skeleton to the rig to complete bones and connections.

Motion can then be added to the timeline.

05Finalizing Your Animated Rig

To finish us off, let’s talk about how you go about publishing your finished product! Of course, even after you have your complex rig completed, there are still other matters to think about in terms of making sure that the video is of quality!

Key Takeaways from This Episode

● Start off on the right footing by learning the basics of animation! These days, there are more options than ever, with the modern 3D animation rigging style now just as popular as the more classic 2D animation style.

● The best way to learn animation rigging is to practice! Structured guides can help you get to the point of almost mastery, but it’s not until you start playing with the tools of your craft that you can truly learn how to create beautiful animations!

● Some of the more complex functions of rigging require a lot of patience, so make sure that you always go into your projects with a level-head. And, just to be sure, invest in tools that will help rather than hinder your progress! There are many advanced software out there that can help you improve more easily.

This has been broken down into four distinct stages to make things as simple as possible! It won’t be discussing the tools you use, as there are plenty of tools you can use for animation, just the general process:

Step 1: Design Your Character

Before you even think about animation, you should start with designing your character (or characters.) This will give you a good basis on what kind of animation rigging you’ll need to work on for that character.

For example, for a humanoid character, a general skeletal rigging might be okay. However, for a creature or monster, their joints might be in different areas or they might even have additional joints regular human rigs don’t have!

So, start with a foundation that you can work from to make things easier on yourself.

Step 2: Start With Rigging Points!

When you have your character design ready, it’s time to start rigging joints! It’s best to start with the joints and leave the more finicky parts later. Basically, it’s always easier to start with the parts that can create big movements first!

Working on things layer by layer should help make things easier for you as well.

Step 3: Connect The Layers!

It’s time to put everything together to create smooth movement! Depending on what tool you’re using, this is usually just as easy as dragging things into place.

Step 4: Timing Your Animation

With the rig in place, the next thing you have to worry about is frame timing. Timing is important for ensuring that there is no break in character motions

02Beginners Tutorial on Shape Rigging

This one is a little more complicated, and should be improved more by trial and error, but here are a couple of tips that you can follow along with while exploring blend shapes in animation:

Master your sculpting tools first and foremost! The more familiar you are with the shapes that your tools can create, the better!

Symmetrical modeling is one way of making the process go a lot faster! Take advantage of this option to highlight components that you need to be affected in the same way and at the same time.

If symmetrical modeling is not working for you, independent modeling is a great way of making things appear more organic.

03How Auto Rig Mapping Works

Auto-rigging is the use of pre-made rigs in order to simplify the process. The tool automatically maps the areas where the characters and the rig are given the same symbol names and snaps them together to create joints for a motion to be applied.

04How Visual Rig Mapping Works

Visual mapping is a lot more complicated the auto-rig mapping, so it’s not something you want to jump into immediately. However, it is a must for animation riggers that work with unique character models. The process usually goes as follows:

Manually make connections starting with the joints.

Applying the skeleton to the rig to complete bones and connections.

Motion can then be added to the timeline.

05Finalizing Your Animated Rig

To finish us off, let’s talk about how you go about publishing your finished product! Of course, even after you have your complex rig completed, there are still other matters to think about in terms of making sure that the video is of quality!

Key Takeaways from This Episode

● Start off on the right footing by learning the basics of animation! These days, there are more options than ever, with the modern 3D animation rigging style now just as popular as the more classic 2D animation style.

● The best way to learn animation rigging is to practice! Structured guides can help you get to the point of almost mastery, but it’s not until you start playing with the tools of your craft that you can truly learn how to create beautiful animations!

● Some of the more complex functions of rigging require a lot of patience, so make sure that you always go into your projects with a level-head. And, just to be sure, invest in tools that will help rather than hinder your progress! There are many advanced software out there that can help you improve more easily.

This was a question one of my friends asked me recently on the subject of animate rigging

To help them out (as well as other animation rigging beginners) I decided to compile some of the most popular tips on the subject in this article!

In this article

01 [The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need to Know About Rigging in Animation](#Part 1)

02 [How Do You Animate Rigging?](#Part 2)

Part 1 The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need to Know About Rigging in Animation

Before anything else, we’ve prepared a bit of an OVERVIEW on rigging in animation. This will cover most of the basic, need-to-know stuff to nudge you in the right direction and help the tips we’ve prepared to settle in more easily.

01What is Rigging in Animation

Rigging in animation is a technique used by animators to—quite literally—‘rig’ up a statistic digital character to act or move.

Even more simply, it’s a way of bringing literal life to your character models by introducing them to motion. The ‘rig’ in this case, is usually made as a sort of one-size-fits-all kind of tool, which you can use in order to create pre-made skeletal animations that replicate motions like walking, running, jumping, etc., and apply onto static characters. You can use animation software, like Maya in order to get this done!

02An Introduction to 2D Animation Rigging

2D animation is a more back-breaking kind of process. It’s what you see in a lot of older animations — where every frame needs to be drawn in order to allow for the illusion of motion in characters. This is how classics, like Mickey Mouse, are usually produced!

03An Introduction to 3D Animation Rigging

3D animation, as you can probably guess, is a more modern animation style. You see it in a lot of big blockbuster animated movies these days! Even Disney has since moved onto this style, whereas they were staunch supporters of 2D animation in previous decades. Now, a lot of their major productions, including titles such as “Tangled”, “Frozen”, and “Moana” are 3D animated.

In any case, this is more like what we described earlier — where skeletal ‘rigs’ are applied to static 3D character models to make them move.

04Key 3D Rigging Terms to Get You Moving

Finally, to make sure that you’re headed in the right direction, here’s a list of some of the more important 3D rigging terms that you’ll need to know:

Joints|Bones: This is pretty straightforward, but the Joints or the Bones, in this case, refers to the pieces of the skeletal rig that is used to create movement.

Driven Keys: Driven keys are there to help rigging artists make the movement appear more natural faster. It consists of two parts, the driver (which controls the animation) and the driven (the parts controlled by the driver).

Blend Shapes: This is an animation tool that riggers used mainly for facial animation (like lip-syncing). Basically, it allows them to blend or morph an existing shape to give it motion.

Inverse Kinematics: This is a method of animation that separates a part from the whole. Like how an animator can create motion in the wrist, for example, as a separate entity from the arm.

Forward Kinematics: Opposite of the previous style, this one is a method that follows a hierarchical progression.

Control Curves: This is a way of manipulating multiple joins in a rig in order to create one flowing movement.

Constraint: A way of limiting the positioning of a model or a joint.

Deformers: A way of enhancing rigs to produce a more organic model.

Skinning: This is the process of adding the 3D mesh to the joints.

Weight Planning: This is the process of planning how the weight of an object will affect its 3D mesh and the movement of its joints.

Facial Rigging: This is the process of setting up facial animation, similar to how you set up skeletal animation, but far more complex.

Part 2 How Do You Animate Rigging?

Now, onto actually talking about how you can start animate rigging. This section will guide you through the process in a way that should hopefully help you while in the process of learning about animation in general.
