We kick the new year off with some amazing community examples - a live Twitch cartoon from Geek and Sundry, a live comedy art show from the Upright Citizen's Brigade, an updated head-turning version of the frog pillow Hector, a broadcast-length cartoon with multiple characters, and expressive animations from a dragon and bird. Then we walk through the different ways to customize the controls panel trigger icons, including a secret way to get custom icons. After a quick time-lapse of making a raccoon puppet from scratch, we'll finish up with fixing a broken puppet, touching on 5 places to look for issues and how to remedy them.
00:00 Intro
00:46 Community Spotlight
7:15 Custom Trigger Icons
11:28 Character Time-lapse
