Simple Character Animation

During my training in creating simple character animation in After Effects, I sequentially mastered several key stages. First, I developed the character in Adobe Illustrator, learning how to create and structure its elements for subsequent animation. I imported the layers into After Effects and set them up using Puppet Pin Tool and Parenting, which allowed me to create the basic framework for animation.

The next step involved animating basic movements, such as walking and arm movements. I learned to use Easy Ease and speed graphs to create smooth and natural animations. To add realism, I applied additional effects such as Wiggle and Expressions, which made the movements more dynamic and expressive.

The final stage included testing and refining the animation, where I carefully reviewed the timing and movement quality to achieve the perfect result. This training significantly improved my skills in character animation, expanding my abilities with keyframes and effects.
