Once you've drawn more than 50 or so hand gestures the last thing you want to do is draw 50 plus mouth movements, nose movements, eyebrow movements etc. So much so that I've personally never managed to complete a single G2 character in its entirety – and believe me I gave it a really good try (Read about my G2 Monkey and Cat Character to see how much I tried). However G2 characters upped the complexity of character creation from scratch so much that, even those of us who bothered to learn the detailed process, still struggled with the time and effort just to produce a single character. You could even apply 3D character motions to them from iClone, Reallusion's Flagship 3D animation studio. There was a lot of preparation and considerable time spent rigging its G1 characters.ĬrazyTalk Animator 2, introduced G2, multi-angle characters, with the revolutionary technique of being animated like 3D characters in 3D space.
If you wanted to create animated characters from your original artwork, quick and easy didn't really describe the time and effort involved. Since my focus has largely been on original character animation my experience with CTA is relative to that. An idea that was relative depending on what kind of animation you wanted to do. I've been using Reallusion's CrazyTalk Animator since its original incarnation that promised quick and easy, 2D animation creation. Does it deliver? Could it be your 'go to' 2D animation tool of choice? Before I explore those questions I feel a bit of backstory is necessary. CrazyTalk Animator 3's bold claim is 'The One-for-all 2D Animation'.
