Adobe Character Animator is a versatile Windows program designed for creating unique and complex animated characters. Users can add gestures, voices and other details.
Puppet show
Users can bring 2D characters to life by applying motion capture and real-time animation techniques. It is possible to add such actions as waving a hand, dancing, pointing a finger, eye winking and more. There is an option to record the face with the camera on PC or webcam and animate the movements in real-time. It is worth noting that most of these features are only available in the upgraded version.
Moreover, the program allows you to create lip-syncing clips synchronized with mouth movements. You can achieve realistic animations thanks to the algorithms that react to your facial expressions. Overall, Adobe Character Animator provides tools to create 2D of yourself and your friends. The software is suitable both for work and hobbies.
Templates
There are ready-made templates of puppets you can customize by adding movements and speech. It is possible to choose popular characters from well-known shows and start recording. Character Animator allows you to change the background and aspect ratio of the video. Once you complete capturing the clip, you can export the file in H.264, a high bit rate preset.
