Swapping Characters in AniFuzion #
In the editor, select the character, then press the swap button on the top left.
The character of the same character family will be show on the left, click the character we want to swap to.
Please note that the character will be as the same size of the original character, which means the the proportion of the characters may be changed. For example, incase we swap an adult to a child, we need to adjust the size manually. Sometimes, we also need to do more customization, such as editing offset, to make the changes natural.
What You Can Do with Characters in AniFuzion #
Once you have selected your character in AniFuzion, you unlock a host of powerful customization options to bring your animation to life. These features give you full creative control over the actions, appearance, and speech of your characters, allowing you to create scenes that are dynamic, personalized, and engaging.
Add Actions and Poses #
AniFuzion provides an extensive library of pre-made actions and poses, allowing you to animate your character with ease. From simple movements like walking and waving to more complex interactions like dancing or performing tasks, the action library covers a wide range of scenarios. You can easily blend multiple actions together to create seamless transitions between movements, or split actions into parts and customize each section individually. Additionally, the pose offset feature enables you to fine-tune the character’s posture and position, ensuring that every motion looks just right. This flexibility means you can create unique and detailed animations tailored to your storyline.
Change Clothes by Adjusting Textures #
Customization extends beyond just the character’s movements—AniFuzion also allows you to change the clothing of your characters by adjusting the textures. The ability to modify textures adds realism and flexibility, making it easy to align your character’s appearance with the overall theme and tone of your animation. It also helps to maintain continuity across scenes when the same character needs to appear in different outfits.
Add Speech #
One of the standout features in AniFuzion is the ability to add speech to your characters using the text-to-speech (TTS) functionality or pre-recorded audio. With TTS, you can quickly input dialogue and select from a variety of voice options in different languages. AniFuzion’s automatic lip-syncing feature then matches the character’s mouth movements to the speech, providing a realistic speaking experience without any manual editing. This is particularly useful for creating animated presentations, stories, or training videos where characters need to communicate with the audience. Adding speech makes your characters more relatable and human-like, while also conveying key messages clearly and engagingly.
