Character Creation

I've been creating characters for decades, only a few of which you see in my Gallery.

 

By early 2024, I decided to bring my characters to life. My journey into animation began with Maya, transitioned through Midjourney, and finally led me to Adobe Character Creator. ​

 

Adobe Character Animator is unique for its ability to animate characters through motion-capture technology. Behind these cartoons are humans whose real-time facial expressions, body movements, and voices bring the "puppet" to life. ​

 

Beyond motion capture, I use keyboard triggers to control eye movements, expressions, and lip-syncing to recorded audio, giving each character a distinct personality. ​ You can view my growing character showcase on YouTube, including my playlist, "60-Second Fixes Daily Life." ​

 

And now, here are a few of my newest characters making their animated debut.
