How to add hand poses, lipsync ect. to my existing rigg.

Question

Hi,

I created my character rigg using the SMR helpers. Now I want to add some hand poses, eye poses and lipsync (so that I can animate them in the timeline). How do I do that? Is it even possible to add the poses to an existing rigg or do I need to do it before? If so, how?

Thank you very much.

Hi Vojta,

SMR is extremely flexible. You can keep adding elements or states as you go, regardless of how detailed your initial rig is.
Depending on your level of Flash/Animate knowledge, you may want to look into the various tutorials on our site.
Please, use the "Workflow" section in the side bar and check the listed articles - from character rigging basics to Advanced Rig Architecture.

Also, I would suggest to download some of the sample rigs which we provide and study them.

Good luck!
