Does Envato have characters with all the "joints" (circles) and limbs already made and prepared for rigging, so you do not have to do it yourself? Like rig-ready characters?
I wouldn't say its a waste of time. You just need to recreate their limbs which takes....15 minutes. You save time not having to design from scratch everything else. If you can fully design a character from scratch to completely done in 15 minutes, contact me because I want to hire you.
Hi, thank you for your tutorial. But I have a problem that needs help. I flowed your proses to do the rigging is pretty good until I parent my Thigh structure layer to the body layer.

Hi, thanks for this tutorial. Just one question: why didn't you use the AUTO IK by making the relationship between the various elements? Are there any contraindications or is yours just personal preference? Thanks u.
This is actually typically what I do (what you described) however, the traditional way to use DUIK is to use the structure layers so I opted for that in this demonstration.
Hi, Thank you for this detailed tutorial. I got a problem, when i do Auto-Rig, the leg or arm becomes bigger than before. Why does it happen, what should I do to avoid that?
I have Installed Overload Plugin after watching your Rigging Videos and now I am facing an error, When I have to Import My AI Group Files in After Effect With Overload Plugin, its shows in single separates layers after importing? I have tried multiple times but the problem persists. Please is there any solution?
Sir you save my time I have learned so many things that I am going to apply my next project. Thank you for this. If you make a front walk cycle tutorial that would be more helpful. I find lot of walk cycle instead of front and back side walk cycle.
Thank you so much, you're a life saver. Please could you highlight how to flip a rigged duik character without ruining the rigg? you could just make a brief higlight here if its too much trouble to make a tute for.
Hi Everyone so I'm following the tutorial on rigging a character in after effects using Duik, and I was following the steps until I encountered this which is different from the tutorial. After I rigged the arm, it told me to parent it to the torso, but when I parented it, it suddenly shrinks down, I don't know how to fix this, when I unparent the arm to the torso it returns back to its normal size tho, anyone ever experiences this same outcome?
depends on your preference honestly. AI files perform better I think. But the reason I prefer to work in shape layers is so that I can place the anchor point right in the middle of the circles I have made for my joints so that my joints will be lined up correctly whenever they bend.
@@TheKeyframeAcademy thanks for your response! I will try both ways and check what is more convenient for my workflow, but I will keep your advice with the anchor points in mind :) thank you!
Thanks! This saved my butt for a commission ahahha but I would love to see how the torso bend without problems Should I design the torso and hips with the same structure as the arms and legs?
Hey bro there is an easier way to separate arms from forearms, you just use the knife tool and make a cut between that both and you will be ready to use it on after
Thanks mate. One question. Why is the order "arm>leg>body>leg>arm" important before placing a rig? Is it just for tidiness or would it not work if not set that way?
If I understand what you're asking, I layer the rig that way because that's the way it needs to be layered for it to look proper. The order is not related to the rigging. The left Arm comes first because that arm sits in front of everything else on the body. Then the left leg, etc. The right arm goes to the bottom of the layer stack because it should be behind everything. But like I said, the order of the layers isn't related to the rigging, but is important for the how the character should look. You could but the right arm at the top, but then the arm that is supposed to be behind everything would be in front of everything, and that wouldn't look right.
Awesome bro. Hey, is there a way to us DUIK to make an easy rig for a whole vector person? Like a 1 layer vector person Illustrator file with maybe 3 bones or just a spine and a moving arm. Easy rig so I can put dozens of these characters in the same scene and have them all moving slightly as I zoom and pan across the scene? Or for another example maybe blades of grass. Puppet tool is not good for this because when you zoom and pan the mesh leaves the character and it leaves artifacts behind and the whole thing gets screwed up.
Yeah I think thats possible. You can just rig, as many arms as you need, so if you just need one rigged arm, you can just rig that. With puppet pins, you have to first created bones from those pins, then either auto rig those bones, or align your structure layers like I showed in this video, to the bones, and then auto rig those. If you're confused about bones, there are a lot of YT videos on how to use them.
you could use puppet pins. In my opinion though you end up with a less flexible rig. Unfortunately, if you want something with the most versatility it will require the most amount of time to set up.
I have a flat character design that’s been sent to me as a Photoshop file. When using DUIK is there a set number of layers that is required to perfectly suit animation? I.e always 2 hands, 2 arms, 2 feet etc. I say this as my current design really has no neck.
Depends on how you use it. I would skip using the structure layers and go look at my video about the 5 secrets of DUIK, I show how to rig without structure layers. For the Head ->neck -> Body rigging, i'd skip using dUIK and just parent your head to your body and move your anchor point on your head layer to where you want the head to rotate from.
thank you for the tutorial, but im having some issue with the layers when sending different grouped part to after effects. it doesnt send it as one layer, rather multiple layers like for the head, i grouped the head nose and ears but i have single layers for each plz How can i solve that problem
Is there a way to rig the character so that the hands rotate with the arms? I'm getting an effect where the hands seem limp as the Controller is attached to the wrist joint but not the tips of the hand
Okay, I have two things to say about this. First, yes you can make it so your hand rotates with the arm by disabling the rotation expression on your hand layer (not the hand controller). However, the second thing I want to say is that with arms, I often use FK(forward kinematics, which basically means I am keyframing the rotation of each joint) more than IK (inverse kinematic) Because for a lot of motions like waving, swinging while walking etc, its actually easier to animate using FK IMO than IK. In the case of FK you're animating the rotation of the wrist so you don't have to disable the rotation expression. I guess I have three things to say, which is tools like Rubberhose or Limber, allow you to toggle between rotating with the arm and not without having to disable any expression. Which is I think and advantage.
@@TheKeyframeAcademy Huge help! Thanks for the speedy reply! Disabling the expression did the trick, and in this instance is all I need as it is a very simple animation.
@keyframa academy. After the auto rig and try to rotate the arms i keep seeing my forearm edges below my upper arm. After double checking all the anchor points and following your steps. Can you help me out??
@@TheKeyframeAcademy Unfortunatelt i cant upload any screenshots thats why i tried to send you a screenshot to your email adres. But the problem is that after putting all the right elements of the arm together and creating the auto-rig for the arm i keep see the edges of the bottom of the forearm when i tried to rotate it 45 degrees. (you can see the 2 different elements instead of a normal flexing/rotating arm)
Is there a "zero" button? I recall being able to move a layer's position, and then hitting the "zero" button to reset the position to 0, to help reset layers to a default position when necessary?
this tutorial is great! I wanted to learn Duik Bassel... As a side-effect I learned a huge mass about illustrator because you speak out every workstep ("...by holding ALT+Drag...send back with CTRL+Left bracket..") that's teaching at its best! 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!! :-)
DUIK has a feature that allows you to extract controllers from a composition. So typically I will set up a rig, than pre compose the rig so that it's self contained in its own composition. Then I will extract the controllers from that comp into my current comp. this allows me to dramatically reduce the number of layers. For face rigs, I do the same thing with Joysticks n' Sliders which allows you to move the controller to the parent comp.
@@TheKeyframeAcademy that worked fine for me, great! But the hands (I put separate hands on the forearms) then cannot be controlled anymore, right? Another prob: I built my original composition in a to small window. So that if the character spreads his arms, the hands are cut off in the final animation. If I make the working-space of the original composition wider (and leave its hight as it is), the whole Ki of the charakter is distroyed. Would you know a way out for me? Thank you!
I have both arms and legs rigged as you do without using the spine. How do you parent the rigged arms and legs to the body as you did. When I try to move around my body the legs and arms do not follow the body. Thanks!
When I download one of the flat character sets from Envato, they are a big group of different characters, and when I bring them into illustrator, how do you just pick one character? When I pick one and delete the others, the body components are parented under a total layer and when I bring it in to AE it only brings the top parent layer. What am I doing wrong?
