Use Limber Like a Pro, 5 Sneaky tricks

[@_casg]

Just picked up a side gig and I needed to rewatch this. Thanks for this big dawg

[@artemtsenev]

I didn't know about Limber before you showed it. But now i really like it. And I think I don't fear character animation so much when I tried it before. Thank you for tips and videos, John.

[@josephgmedia]

The limb library is awesome, but I'd LOVE to see a rig library. Even if its just 3 basic rigs that we can build art on top of.

[@Tech3Foundation]

surely opened my eye, but this whole process flew over my head because i just started, then I have the limber plugin, but haven't used it before. would really be great if you can do a step-by-step approach for your video, so we can do it along with you. You are a pro, some of us find it hard to catch up 😄

[@daffertube]

learned a lot! thanks

[@TheSickPollo]

Opened my eyes to what's possible with Limber. I've been doing Motion Graphics for a while and ready to dabble with Character Animation. Happy to find a content creator that has fully fledged tutorials that are easy to follow. Thanks!

[@HurKad1985]

Bought Limber after I watched your videos.. it's amazing.. I still need so much training.. thank you for your advice.. I was trying to learn Duik but it takes eges to finish the rig.. Please make videos about head turns and hands with fingers.. you are amazing.

[@seancusson72]

Love this video! Please do more of these. I want to get to a point where I'm comfortable enough to tackle any type of character job and these videos are getting me there.

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

And thanks for supply the outline artwork!

[@glenncogan8109]

Yeah this video was great, I personally learned a lot and slowly Limber is becoming less daunting thanks to you. I truly hope you keep producing your superb content. Invaluable to me and Im sure many more 😊

[@DAJANITORRS]

You the sole reason I bought limber was leaning towards rubber hose 3 but after watching your vids limber seems way better thanks for all the info

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

LFG!

[@seemotionstudio]

Loved this, found some new tricks, which solved some issues ;) Your learning style is great & very helpful, thanks a mill !

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

Great to hear!

[@AnniekinDraws]

Really great video, thanks for the tips! One thing, can you normalise your audio as I was jump scared a few times when a few of your clips had louder audio!

[@birjuraikwar]

BANG ON!!!!

This video was amazinggggg, more than a lot of courses !

How do you add animatable toes to the rig ?

[@yoavdror4258]

your videos are the best!

[@barabaka6101]

Very informative tutorial, I have a case where the character is made of lines.

[@houdanabil2055]

Thanks for this, l'm Always afraid of moving characters, I'm going to try this

[@legrainproduction2760]

supe cool, do you have a tuto to explain how to customize taper limber ?

[@Lapislazuli9925]

Thanks for the video but Limb Library panel does not appear when I click import library. I do not know what mistake I am doing. Any help please. Thanks.

[@kelvinchuks8885]

So Cool! Still can't wait to see your tutorial on Duik Angelo, any news about when it will be released?

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

It's coming, but its going ot have to be delayed a little bit.

[@ARStudios2000]

I tried the 3 Circles method you gave, but when I did it, the rig not only did not properly work as my calf and thigh were not connecting to the circles, and my circles grew to abnormal lengths for some reason. I use AFter Effects 2020. Why were my circles not rigging?

[@영상가르치는남자]

Thank you for this perfect video! I really appreciate it

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@LafeSpace]

@thekeyframeacademy can you export controllers to other compositions?

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

Yes, but you'll need DUIK for it, or Rubberhose.

[@dfella]

Anyone know why the option to download the library would be grayed out?

[@mertimbenya]

thank you so much

[@jlr8451]

Is it possible to create characters with Photoshop layers with Limber?

[@freakout6065]

[@tylerster1]

What plugin is Take_Shape ? I can't seem to find it but by the looks of it it seems very useful haha Also what is the other plugin on the left side that starts with MoB... Also seems useful from what i can see😂 Thank you so much for your videos they are so useful.

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

Take shape is my own tool. The other plugin is mobar and you can get it here: gumroad.com/a/575612019/ikizm (Use code: keyframeacademy for 15% off)

rig & pose option is not working

[@FinancialReporting2024]

Is the limber license monthly or one time

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

Its a one time purchase

[@LafeSpace]

How heavy is limber? Meaning what is the toll on RAM? It looks like a memory eater, but I could be wrong.

[@animatabledotco]

RAM in AE is mostly about layers - the bigger your layers and the more layers you have, the more RAM they eat. So you should see more or less frames in your RAM Preview bar depending on that. Limber doesn't use any more of your RAM than any other layer with similar pixel dimensions.

[@LafeSpace]

@@animatabledotco good to know. Thanks

[@rickardbengtsson]

Goood stuff

[@telstraroenssel3701]

been trying limber and these presets but when i paste them, there is nothing in the visual, selecting > tranform > center in view / fit to comp doesnt show it either also i cant get the wobbly limbs at all from this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3SnqqVoiJufoqM and how do i make a limb can go wobbly to both left and right? if possible, i want that for torso

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

What are you pasting them to? Its a little tough to know exactly where it is going wrong without knowing a little more detail about what you're doing exactly. Make sure that when you copy and paste the preset, that you're pasting it to an existing limb. You also want to use the copy and paste function within limber, rather than the system copy and paste. (Ctrl + C/ Ctrl+v)

[@telstraroenssel3701]

@@TheKeyframeAcademy ahh i was literally pasting them onto nothing, was hoping to copas (ctrl c v) to make duplicates. Left arm copy, paste then tadaaa right arm. i totally didnt notice that copy and paste INSIDE THE LIMBER. big thanks! continuing that, may i also get help for the next few problems if you dont mind? 1. i cannot get custom artwork or limb presets to be wobbly, sliding "bone curvature" between 0-100 doesnt change a thing 2. probably the same problem with number 1. i want to make a motion graphic to animate something like sticker usagyuuun which needs wobbly torso but i can only get limbs from the "new" menu inside limber to be wobbly which somehow cannot have its start/mid/end size edited, sliding the parameters doesnt change a thing, and the only change i could do to the default shape layer was increase/reduce stroke size which is not enough to copy usagyuuun torso silhoutte

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

@@telstraroenssel3701 Glad you figured it out. I'm not sure I totally understand your second issue. I suggest you join the animatable.co discord if you haven't already. Steve (the creator of Limber) is pretty active on there and will definitely be able to help you figure out what you're trying to do.

[@nikyabodigital]

Why is Limber so laggy in AE? I got Ryzen 5 2600 48gb ram RTX 3070

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

That is an AE problem, not a limber problem.

[@nikyabodigital]

@@TheKeyframeAcademy any tips how to deal with it? Like workarounds For example isolating the character in some precomp or working with minimal colors and effects on the early stage of animation. I learned char. rigging from you made several projects already because of you. I stumbled upon limber coz of u. super worth it! Keep doing whatever it is you do.

[@TheKeyframeAcademy]

@@nikyabodigital turn your layers to draft. Or solo the layers you are working on.
