This video was made for our clients Taiyaki, using a character that was produced for Vambies Inc. Taiyaki Studios (taiyakistudios.com/), in partnership with Vambie Inc (vambie.com/), created five characters that are free to download on Adobe CH's free character download page (pages.adobe.com/character/en/...) or via the Adobe Character Animator homepage.
The Vambies have an extensive collection of facial expressions with advanced fluid animation, plus they have walk, turn and full body motion capture enabled. These puppets are ideal to either learn CH with, or to use to learn how advanced avatar puppets are rigged.
