Rigging with Mixamo
Mixamo is a software tool that allows you to quickly rig your own character. In addition, you can
also create a new character from one of the preset Mixamo characters and add preset Mixamo
animations to your characters. As of this writing, you are allowed two free rigs for your own prebuilt
characters for your personal use. Mixamo characters and Mixamo animations must be purchased.
Before Starting Mixamo
To have Mixamo rig your character, there are a few things you will have to do to prepare it.
1.
Use your favorite digital content creation software to create your character.
2.
Make sure your character is in the standard T-pose (Figure
A-1
).
