Hi all,

 

I am embarking on an animation project and just decided to purchase AM but I am a bit hesitant that I will be able to pull this off since I am not a professional. My charachters are simple, a smiley face and a chalkboard with a straight forward story. I worry that I won't be able complete my character rigging and will be dead in the water. How hard is this and do people offer rigging services? I use a Mac and have 10.4.7 (Tiger) and I noticed the additional available software that helps you rig doesn't work with 10.4.

 

Thanks in advance,

Lori Hiatt

Ms. Hiatt,

Your characters sound simple enough that rigging should not be that difficult.

There are quite a few people here on this forum that can assist you.

 

A great place to start would be the tutorials. They will take you from baby steps to leaps.

Be patient with yourself and learn the software.

Thanks David,

 

My software is on it's way. I plan to do all the tutorials, have already watched them all and read alot on the forums. I'm getting excited. My character has alot of talking and not as much action which makes me abit nervous.
