Body tracking makes performance capture animation in Adobe Character Animator faster and more fun. In this tutorial, we'll start off by covering performance basics: where to stand in your webcam frame, how calibrating works, and the body behavior. Then we'll troubleshoot some common problems you might run into if your puppet isn't tracking correctly. Next we'll touch on how to record and edit a body tracked performance, before finishing with step-by-step details on how to rig your own characters for body tracking. Body tracking is a gamechanger for Character Animator and we're excited to see what you make with it!
