What if I told you rigging doesn't have to be a "necessary evil"?

What if you could rig with ease and still create amazing animations?

Take it from one of our successful students, LuckyPlanet who said:

"I never rig anything from scratch because I don't know how."

-LuckyPlanet

And yet look at his rig:

Instead of rigging something from scratch, he relied on the "pre-made rig" method we teach that allowed him to bypass the complexities of rigging without sacrificing the quality of his animations.

Another of our students said:

"I used your method of customization simply because I don't know how to draw."

-Sophia Samuels

Our approach enables even those who lack drawing skills to create impressive, original characters.

She managed to do it without spending endless hours mastering the art of drawing.

It's entirely possible to rig original characters without knowing how to draw.

By following our innovative approach, you can sidestep the headaches and confusion that usually accompany rigging and still bring your unique characters to life.

Keep reading because we're about to dive into the world of rigging.

We'll expose its challenges, bust some common myths, and, most importantly, show you how to rig like a pro without all the hassle.

Creating original characters presents its own set of challenges

Feeling lost

Without proper guidance or expertise, users can feel lost, unsure of where to begin or how to navigate the intricate world of rigging.

This struggle often results in animators feeling overwhelmed and unable to bring their unique visions to life.

More features,
more confusion

Even with the introduction of new features like vector characters, the rigging process remains far from smooth sailing.

While vector characters have the potential to be a game-changer, the complexity of their rigs can lead to a whole new set of issues.

Detached arms, disappearing eyes, and other frustrating glitches can make animators question whether these new features are worth the trouble.

Given these challenges, it's no wonder that animators are on a never-ending quest to find the easiest method for rigging — one that doesn't sacrifice quality.

After all, who wouldn't want a more streamlined, user-friendly way to create incredible animations?

The demand for a simpler rigging process is high, and for good reason.

Nobody wants to spend endless hours wrestling with a stubborn rig when they could be focusing on the fun, creative aspects of animation.

Avoid the headaches

Mental fatigue

In summary, rigging in Cartoon Animator can be a real headache due to its complex, confusing nature and the struggles users face when trying to create original characters.

Searching for answers

This leaves animators searching for the easiest method to rig their characters without compromising quality, and that's precisely what we're here to provide.

From the many emails I have read, I have seen some horror stories described by students.

• Frustration of wrestling with a stubborn rig can leave even the most passionate artists feeling drained and disheartened.
• Many students report that the rigging has become a source of pain and suffering rather than an exciting part of the creative process.
• The stress of trial and error seems like a burden animators must bear.
• As they painstakingly experiment with various rigging techniques, they feel like they’re running in circles, unsure of how to achieve the perfect rig.
• The anxiety and time wasted on these repeated attempts usually take a significant toll on their motivation, leaving them questioning whether it's all worth it.
• Even after investing countless hours and effort into rigging, they find themselves staring at a mediocre result that falls short of their expectations.

If this happens to you, it can be a crushing blow to your confidence and a setback that no animator wants to experience.

WE DON’T WANT THIS FOR YOU!

It's clear that a better solution is needed

One that can alleviate these rigging pains and reignite your love for animation.

And that's exactly what we're about to share with you.

Finding a way

I knew there had to be a way to make rigging more accessible and enjoyable without sacrificing quality.

After investing a significant amount of time in research and development, I finally discovered the speed rigging techniques that would simplify the rigging process.

With these techniques in hand, I saw many of our students successfully applying them on various projects with great success!

The results were astounding.

Not only did the rigging process become faster and more efficient, but the overall quality of their projects also improved dramatically.

It was like a breath of fresh air, and I knew I had to share this breakthrough with others who were struggling with rigging.

Now, let me give you some insights into how these speed rigging techniques have impacted their work.

Students have successfully applied these methods to numerous projects, and each time, the outcome has been remarkable.

Their characters have come to life with smooth and fluid animations, and the rigging process has become more of a joy than a chore.

The impact of this solution has been nothing short of transformative.

You will see characters take on a new level of realism and expression that you never thought possible, all thanks to the power of speed rigging.
