In this video you will learn practical animation techniques. They will allow you to get the most out of your Mixamo characters. The techniques build upon each other so please watch the whole video.
I chose to focus on Mixamo but these techniques will work for other rigs as well.

Introducing, the new Rigify course from CGDive.
Have you ever wanted to go beyond the pre-built face rig in Rigify (which is nice but also has many flaws)? Then you need to learn the modular face rig system which was added in Blender 3.0. Unfortunately, learning resources about this system are almost non-existent. The official manual is a train-wreck (to whoever wrote it, I am sorry but it is).
So if you want to learn how to use it, this new course is the way to go!

I am happy to announce that my advanced Rigify course *Two-headed Ogre* will be released on YouTube for FREE. The release will be gradual: the 20 or so chapters will be released once per week. The release will take place from May 2024 until around October 2024.
Find all released chapters in this Playlist:

In the course Rigging a Two-headed Ogre with Rigify, you will learn advanced rigging and Rigify techniques. You will get to know how to extend, modify and customize your Rigify rigs so that you are no longer limited to using the default metarigs. Techniques covered in this course include weight painting, adding custom bones to Rigify, automating bones, rigging clothing and props, rigging armor, face rigging... and more! :)
