    ---------------------------------------
    Duik Ángela is here, and I've got the complete guide to help you start rigging and animating characters in After Effects! Character rigging and animation is a complicated subject that takes a lot of practice to get the hang of, which is why it's so important that you really understand what you're doing before you start. Fortunately, I've created this complete beginner's guide to rigging and animating your first character using Duik Ángela. You're going to learn what kinds of considerations you need to make when designing a character for rigging, how to build a skeleton using Duik's bones system, how to automatically rig the character with Duik's auto-rig feature, the best way to clean up your rigged comp for easy access to only the controls you need, and how to use Duik's auto walk and run cycles feature to animate your character. It's a lot, but it's all here. I promise that once you're done watching this tutorial you'll have a firm grasp on everything you need to rig and animate your own characters in After Effects.

      I think the Morph tool is going to be VERY slept on. I actually bought the full tutorial for Angela from RX and the potential for the morph tool is massive. Would love to see your take on what that tool can do.

    I'm not even 5 minutes in yet, and I can tell how much love went into this tutorial just by the way the character is segmented and labeled in a nice little visual animation just for the audience.

    Thank you for this great and very formative work. To complete this series it would be nice to have a video with character interactions while walking or running. For example jumping over obstacles or going up and down stairs. An in-depth look at the elements of the character would also be great. For example how to animate facial elements or clothes. Thanks again for your work and the hours of very detailed and enjoyable explanations.

    JAKE you make my favorite videos. A year ago I was saying to myself "I hate After Effects" but you really keep me coming back to AE and having fun with it when i do. Even when I already know something, like DUIK, watching your videos are always compelling and give me some nice little food for thought when coming back to rigging in after effects.
    Seriously I cannot express my appreciation for you and your videos enough!

      DUIK Angela jeeps getting stuck just before the auto-rig is complete. I have tried using a duplicate bird twice. I saw in help notes to flip horizontally and rig again. You gave any suggestions. I wasn't too old to learn this stuff after all, but I am too old to have patience with these systems. Please help.

    Thanks Jake, great tut. I’d be interested in how the key morph and connectors work. Also would be interested in how you use DUIK in a bigger scene where the character is interacting with scene/props/background. I’m a member of DUIK (and like that you mention supporting maim thru including amount in client projects) and also have bought some of their tuts but always seem to have a stumbling block in their tuts that I can’t get past or takes me a number of re-dos to get back on path. Your manner of teaching seems to not cause me any set backs. I’m able to follow along, no issue. Makes DUIK more desirable to use when I can see the ins and outs of the tool better. Thank you.
