Animate Characters EASILY (No Plugins) | After Effects Tutorial

Does it work if I drew the arm in illustrator and import it in ae

Simple and straightforward, thanks!

Bro i need any plugin for free of character rigging in after effect

just too good. and simple
thank u for this. helped me alot

i was looking for a quick solution for very simple animations and this is exactly what i needed right now!! thanks a lot! :D

Cracking video showing you how to rig a character using null objects, but where's the animation tutorial?

i dont have that taper option under strokes

Hello ; thank you. Great tutorial. Ive been using AE for about 12 years. I've somehow managed to avoid anything except FK limbs (Ive done IK now and then)

i don’t get shit

Fantastic, no water! It helped to animate my homework! Great job, I hope You have enough income for stay motivated!

thank you this was super super useful! great work :)))

Great tut

gooood

That is very interesting. I have been illuminated :D

Why I don't have the "taper" in my shape option? I m with 2019

Thank you so much 😍

People like Tiptut are awesome!

Please create tutorial for animation such as 'how it should ended channel'.it'll be great.thank you

AMAZING!!! THAT'S THE TUTORIAL I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR LONG TIME!!!!

Short yet extremely useful. Thanks man!

Nice tut, really straight to the point :-) My next step would be to put several characters (PLUS their face-rigging) in a big scene...
Do you have (or know) a tutorial about combining several characters (compositions) in one After-Effects-scene?
You know: when a character is rigged, there are so many layers, structures, controllers in that composition, PLUS maybe another composition for the face-rig and so on... Do I put them together in one scene and animate everything right there? Or do I animate each composition on its own and use duplicates in the final scene?
Thank you very much!! :-)

Thanks! Super helpful.

This is very helpful! Thank you Tip Tut. I have one question. I am new to "animating characters". And sometimes it seems difficult to understand when you want to move all the body actually. Is Duik really necessary or can I solve all animating process by using your tip? What do you suggest?

Great video, clear, concise and most of all helpful.

thank's Sir ji Nice one

Thank you for the following:
1. Being exactly what I needed.
2. Keeping the video short and informative.
3. Explaining what you're doing clearly and concisely.
4. Giving the video a short and accurate title.

IDEA: You should do a How-To video on "How to Make a How-To Video."

Thank you. pretty much usefull. greetings fom RU

I'm guessing this doesn't work if the character was made in illustrator... ?

Thanks a lot ! You saved my As** with this tip that I completely forgot 🙏🏽

Really nice tutorial! I used to rig using plugins, it could be troublesome sometimes.

I make all assets on Illustrator and then get them to After Effects, how should I prepare the limbs on Illustrator for rigging like this once import is made?

how to get tapper option in shape layer ???

just what I was looking for, cheers mate!

Does this work for raster images?

This is exactly what I needed to make my life a lot easier. I would love to see the rest of the setup and the actual animation curves or if you used any expressions.

Amazing!!! I usually draw the layer using Illustrator. It possible to animate the limbs from Illustrator layer?

Great Video. I can't seem to find the Taper option under Stroke menu.

Very useful tutorial. How can i add stripes on the sleeve ? So it is not only one color? Thank you

This British guy has made my life easier

Dude, this is exactly what I needed. You're the best, man!!

How would I add a short sleeve to the arm so it also moves with the null movement?

Always Quality content from you!

Nice tut, good job! Keep them coming, I'll be watching.

Awesome!

Would you be able to upload the file you made to make this video. It sure would help me to understand the mechanics of the rig if I could work with it. Thanks.

Sir how can I have or find the
Create null object paths????

That is brilliant!

Wow this is much more simple, I used to try limb movements with puppet pin tool and the guy just flails around like noodle
