Character Animation:

Bring Your Faceless Brand to Life

Custom animated characters that become your digital identity across YouTube, Twitch, and social media. Engage your audience without showing your face.

The 4-step Process

From concept to live stream, we guide you through creating your perfect animated persona.

  1. Image of myself as a sketch

    Sketching the concept

    Every great character starts with a pencil and paper. This stage is all about exploring ideas, refining composition, and capturing the essence of the design through loose, expressive sketches before moving to digital refinement.

  2. Image of myself after being vector drawn

    Vector Illustration

    With the sketch as a foundation, the character comes to life in Affinity Designer or Adobe Illustrator. Clean lines, precise shapes, and vibrant colors are added to create a polished, scalable vector design.

  3. Image of Adobe Character rigging

    Rigging the character

    With the vector character complete, the character is imported into Adobe Character Animator for rigging. This step involves setting up facial expressions, body movements, and interactive controls, allowing the character to move and respond naturally for animation.

  4. Animating the character

    With rigging complete, the character is brought to life through animation. Whether for a Twitch stream, YouTube videos, a PowerPoint presentation, or custom content, smooth movements and expressive reactions make the character fully interactive and engaging.
