Part 1 What is AI Artist? Plus how to cartoon yourself with it
We all remember the Cartoon filter challenge on Facebook, right? Everyone was excited to transform themselves into a cartoon.

The Voila AI artist app can be downloaded from the Apple App store and Android Play Store.

Other than just creating a cartoon of yourself, you can also create renaissance portraits and caricatures.
● Step 1: Download the Voila AI artist App for your device, and complete the installation process. Allow the app to access your Phone’s Camera rolling permission.
● Step 2: Select the style option you want to use. What we are using here is 3D cartoon (other options: 2D Cartoon, Caricature & and the rest). Touch the arrow and start.
● Step 3: Now, with your camera roll open, click a new one or choose from your gallery. You can also find a celebrities option where you can search for celebrities. This generates a four-grid choice. If you are using the free version, then be prepared to encounter one or two ads. After a few seconds, you can exit out and get back to your images.
● Step 4: You will receive a composite grid of four options; your original image, plus three cartoon representations (Royalty 3D, Baby 3D & Cartoon 3D). Here, you can select the option you like the most and start editing. Locate the up arrow button to immediately share on your preferred social media or simply save a copy in your device.

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.
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.

This cute GIF syncs pretty well with the ShoeMint’s email marketing template’s title – “C’mon, Get Happy!.” You can smile when you see the colorful socks swaying in a carefree manner.
2. Mr. Porter
This is an animated fireplace in the email marketing newsletter of Mr. Porter. It gives a pretty cozy and warm feel and atmosphere to the entire image, which is what they’re looking for or wandering for with the casual clothes the man is wearing.
3. American Apparel
American Apparel sells “power washed” T-shirts to make them “super soft.”
This critical merit would not attract many users if it weren’t for simulating the animated GIF of the T-shirts getting washed in an imaginary washing machine.

Part 1 Intro to Character Rigging
As you already know by now that the process of rigging a character can be quite a tedious task. It involves a lot of creative thinking, precision and a keen eye to notice all the small details.
Once you have a model character to work on, riggers set off to creating a skeleton to match the character. These skele-animations can be used to move the entire model as if tugging on strings (not literally).
The movement of the chain of skeletons or rigs is interdependent. Which means if you pull on any one bone, it moves all the other bones in the same sequence. Similar to how bones move within the human body.
Riggers use programs and tools to create a series of bone like structures that can deformed and animated freely according to the preference of the animators.
Movements like positioning, curving and rotation can be recorded and then played back in the animation.
This requires the rigger to constantly coordinate between modelers, animators till the end of the project. This entire process can take weeks or even months.
Amazingly enough, its 20and there are online tools and tutorials you can use to easily learn complex animations like they make in large scale movies and games.
Part 2 8 Tips for Character Rigging
01The Right Rig for the Job
Rigging is a skill all animators gets good at overtime. The more you practice the more familiar you are with the tools you are using. It will also help you understand that not all rigs are meant for the same set of movements.

02Deformers for Facial Rigging
Constructing a realistic facial rig can be quite a task but is indeed satisfying once finished. Human facial features require a great degree of flexibility which is why using a variety of deformers for different parts of the face. They are better suited for creating joints over the face and can be done more quickly.
03IK and FK
Though you can use one without the other, it is best to use both of them in an animation. You can’t work without both arms can you? Applying both Inverse and Forward Kinematics in your rig design can help it make more stylistic.
04Learn Python and Maya API: Learn Python and Maya API
If you wish to take your rigging skills to the next level then learning Maya API and Python are great millstones. This way, you can create high quality and sophisticated rigs with high intense flexibility on Maya. Also, Python allows you to write new scripts for PlugIns.
05Delegate to an Animator
After rigging for several hours it is easy to feel like you are only seeing from one perspective. Get in touch with an animator earlier on in the project can help you get feedback to stay consistent in the rigging process.
06Learn Web Technologies: Learn Web Technologies
To be a good animator or rigging specialist involves a lot of learning. Animation technology is constantly changing therefore it is highly recommended to stay up to date with the latest web technologies. Learning HTML, Java Script and CSS is becoming vital to being a part of the gaming world.
07Use Scalable Tools
Not all the characters or objects you rig are going to be of the same size. Selecting the right rigging software is crucial for you to be able to scale your animations. You won’t need to use everything, just the tools that serve your purpose.
08Use a Clean Interface
If you have ever heard of the phrase ‘clean workplace – cleaner work’ then you should know how an untidy interface can affect your workflow. This won’t necessarily change the results but can surely better your experience.

How to Make Character Rig? Are There Any Plugins or Easy
When we imagine animation, most of the time we are baffled by the end product? But what really goes on behind the mesmerizing colors and whimsical characters.
The basic is of course building rigs to support the entire movement of the character and confine it to actual physical laws that makes it almost a mimic of reality. The entire process of rigging rather simplifies the path to achieve that goal.
In Cinema, character rigging has multiple layers that goes into creating the entire skeleton animation. Setting up a character rig can take anywhere between a few hours or a few days. It probably takes mainstream movies ten times that time.
Let us break down the process of making a rig so that it is simpler to understand.
The process;
Weight Painting: An integral part of the entire rigging process. Although, weight painting can be rendered automatically by the software that you are using, but that can end up making the animation look less realistic. You can instead fine tune the weight of each bone in the rig. You can also copy similar looking bones and apply them to different mesh and repurpose them to function differently.
Placing Bones: After designing a bone structure of character, you can copy the same and use it for similar characters. This is why in games and animation, you notice characters with similar features and traits.
Inverse Kinematics: Not all bones are meant to move in a forward direction. This is why inverses Kinematics are applied to certain bones like the legs, shoulders or even a dragon’s tail. Setting up the IK of your rig would keep specific bones pointed in the right direction so as to make the animation look more natural.
Applying Constraints: The physical realm is built with restrictions. There are things you can do or can’t do according to the natural order of things so as to make your character movement more naturalistic.
Simulation Skeletons: Now comes the part where the magic happens. After fully completing a skeletal animation you can now simulate the motion over the mesh and record the result of the simulation through a series of frames.
Create an animated movie: You can play back the simulation in an animation software such as Blender and then create your own animated movie with Filmora with its easy drag and drop interface. Movies are a collage of frames, so you need to animate according to the fps you want for your video.
Facial Rigs: Facial expressions are more complex than whole body movements. It requires the attention dedicated to a project of its own. Here is where you can play with deforming shapes together to replicate facial muscle movement.
● Key Takeaways from This Episode →
● Rigging has become science in its own right but that does not mean you can’t be artistic with it.
● What you should remember that creating skeletal animation is all about movement and applying physical restrictions to it.
● Start simple and practice until you master the most complex features of any of the top rigging software services raging in the market.
The function of character rigging can easily be compared to that of bones, muscles and joints. They act as skeletons to virtual animations. You can also imagine them as strings used on dolls. These digitalized bones function inter-connectedly in a 3D animation.

Part 1 Intro to Character Rigging
As you already know by now that the process of rigging a character can be quite a tedious task. It involves a lot of creative thinking, precision and a keen eye to notice all the small details.
Once you have a model character to work on, riggers set off to creating a skeleton to match the character. These skele-animations can be used to move the entire model as if tugging on strings (not literally).
The movement of the chain of skeletons or rigs is interdependent. Which means if you pull on any one bone, it moves all the other bones in the same sequence. Similar to how bones move within the human body.
Riggers use programs and tools to create a series of bone like structures that can deformed and animated freely according to the preference of the animators.
Movements like positioning, curving and rotation can be recorded and then played back in the animation.
This requires the rigger to constantly coordinate between modelers, animators till the end of the project. This entire process can take weeks or even months.
Amazingly enough, its 20and there are online tools and tutorials you can use to easily learn complex animations like they make in large scale movies and games.
Part 2 8 Tips for Character Rigging
01The Right Rig for the Job
Rigging is a skill all animators gets good at overtime. The more you practice the more familiar you are with the tools you are using. It will also help you understand that not all rigs are meant for the same set of movements.
You need to be able to discern what rig is it that you need and discard what you don’t. If the rig is being used in a game, then the focus will be more on the experience while for movies its attention.
02Deformers for Facial Rigging
Constructing a realistic facial rig can be quite a task but is indeed satisfying once finished. Human facial features require a great degree of flexibility which is why using a variety of deformers for different parts of the face. They are better suited for creating joints over the face and can be done more quickly.
03IK and FK
Though you can use one without the other, it is best to use both of them in an animation. You can’t work without both arms can you? Applying both Inverse and Forward Kinematics in your rig design can help it make more stylistic.
04Learn Python and Maya API: Learn Python and Maya API
If you wish to take your rigging skills to the next level then learning Maya API and Python are great millstones. This way, you can create high quality and sophisticated rigs with high intense flexibility on Maya. Also, Python allows you to write new scripts for PlugIns.
05Delegate to an Animator
After rigging for several hours it is easy to feel like you are only seeing from one perspective. Get in touch with an animator earlier on in the project can help you get feedback to stay consistent in the rigging process.
