Starter mode is a new feature in Adobe Character Animator that lets you create simple character animations for free. Select a puppet, start a recording (or import a dialogue audio file first), drag in some triggers to add extra emotion, and export out a final video. It's a great first step into the world of character animation, and is easy enough for users of all ages to create with. Learn more at: adobe.com/go/ch_startermode
