Product Introduction

Let Characters “Copy Your Performance” with Character Animator

Want illustrated characters to blink and wave like you? Adobe Character Animator is a “digital mimicry” tool! Turn on your webcam—your expressions and movements “transfer” to characters—they smile when you smile, wave when you wave, and even lip - sync to audio automatically. Add a few “behavior modules” (like blinks, nods) to PSD/AI illustrations, and static images become “live - streaming, skit - acting” virtual avatars. No need to keyframe frame - by - frame for short videos—“perform once” on webcam, and characters animate with you. Even beginners can be “animation directors” to bring IPs to life!

The “Lazy Tool” for Animators

Stuck on “frame - by - frame keyframing” for animation? Adobe Character Animator helps you “cut corners”! Use “behavior components” to give characters “auto - reactions”: mouths move when speaking, arms swing when lifting, and even walking cycles work via presets. Import AI - designed characters, drag into the software to “drive” them, and pair with Premiere for editing, After Effects for effects—doubling efficiency for virtual streamer animations and short - video avatars. Whether for team deadlines or personal viral content, it turns “manual keyframing” into “auto - performance following”—less late nights for animators, more lively works!

Function Introduction

Sync Characters with Your Performance

Want your designed characters to mimic your movements and expressions? Adobe Character Animator can make it happen! Turn on the webcam, and your blinks, smiles, head turns will be synced to digital characters in real - time. By simply setting “behavior components”, static illustration avatars can quickly gain abilities like automatic blinking and mouth - moving with audio. Whether creating virtual hosts in interactive short videos or adding vivid characters to courseware, just “perform” once, and the characters will animate along, easily building lively dynamic figures.

Efficiently Create Dynamic Characters

Does creating animated characters take too long? Adobe Character Animator helps you improve efficiency! With “behavior presets”, you can quickly configure common actions like walking, waving, and speaking for characters, without setting keyframes frame by frame. Import character avatars drawn in AI or PS, add “bones” and “behavior modules”, and combine with audio to automatically generate corresponding mouth shapes and movements. Whether building interesting animated characters for short videos or developing virtual avatars in interactive games, it can simplify the process and quickly produce works with rich dynamic effects.
