  1. I actually changed the speed of the video to get a chance to understand and see everything he says and does, and he still sounds normal .. dude – take the time and explain patiently otherwise it's a waste of effort.. with that being said, I still thank you for the video

  2. Multiple select in pose mode isn't working for me!! Help!
    I'm shift LMB (my select is set as left) but it doesn't do anything. If I try it on the dope sheet shift LMB works but not on the actual rig. What am I doing wrong?
    Tried Shift RMB just in case but that didnt work.

  3. would you know how to add a 3d background? I already had an animation ( not this one ) and once I tried clicking "open" and then clicked on my background to place it in, the character disappeared and the only thing there wsa the classroom ( 3d background )

    any help?

  4. Can i use the character… that you have used in your tutorial…i want to use it in my youtube video…and one more thing…I want to monitize my videos made using that character…please tell me the terms and conditions….please fast…๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜‡

  5. Alright so I've come here to ask a 3d animating question that I'm not quite sure how to research on Google.

    Alright so I have this character. There is a ball floating above that character. The ball follows the character, but it floats and is not attached to the character, so when the character nods its head, or something like that, The ball "follows" that motion, but it has excess motion.

    The only way I can think to explain is this: Imagine you have a small, round balloon on a string. You tie the string to your head somehow to the balloon is floating like 8 inches over your head (roughly). Now, when you move, because the string is flexible and… physics and… stuff… the balloon is going to follow the motion but it won't look like, say, a glass ball on the end of a metal pole moving back and forth. It moves separate from your head. How would you go about setting up animation for this?

    I hope I'm explaining this in a way you can understand. If anyone can help me out, that'd be great.

  6. Now I have one issue, I did the changing shape thing, and I couldnโ€™t change my colors for some reason because the materials option had nothing in it. No new no nothing. Can you please help me with that issue? Also thank you so much for teaching me this stuff!!! Youโ€™re awesome!!!
