April Meetup: Rigging

This month on Thursday April 22nd at 7pm we’re talking character rigging and animation. As always, we’ll start the meeting by showing you what’s new in After Effects. Then we’ll showcase a few smaller presentations. By covering multiple techniques for rigging, you’ll be certain to pick up a few new tricks from the presentations.

We’ll show a recording of Nice Moves Co-Founder Alicia Allen, where she demos a rig created by using image sequences. Alicia will be present to answer questions about her rig set-up.

MNAE Co-Admin Tara Iannarelli will showcase how to set up a mouth rig for voiceover lip-syncing. But she’s not stopping there. Tara will also demonstrate how to create a full character rig using the free plug-in Duik Bassel. Puns likely to be included.

Do you have a question for Alicia or Tara? Post it on the Facebook group or Discord.
