Course Description
Adobe Animate: Modern Rigging includes learning how to take a picture from the computer and import it to the library as an asset. You will also learn how to use the library to pull objects onto the canvas. Objects brought in from the computer can be manipulated by adding joints using the asset warp tool. Once the bones have been placed on the imported object picture, we will discuss animating the bones on the timeline. In addition to animating with the asset warp tool and creating symbols, you will learn how to animate with the bone tool. The bone tool is used on symbols created inside of the software rather than imported to the library. Adobe Animate: Modern Rigging discusses how to rig using pictures imported, and how to place joints on drawings created solely inside of Adobe Animate. Modern Rigging also discusses how to create animations using the pen tool. Multiple options are available to rig and animate with bones on the timeline.
