New Starter mode is now available! 

Character Animator 22.5 (released June 2022) introduces Starter mode to get you started animating now without any prior experience. Update now to the latest version to try this out.


Learn how to navigate and use the Adobe Character Animator workspaces.

Character Animator provides a dynamic user interface with different task-oriented workspaces. The workspaces are designed to support the following major workflows:

Rig

Each workspace displays a limited set of panels used for completing related workflows. The limited number of panels enhances navigation across the workspace and saves time.

The workspace bar along the top of the application provides you links to the workspaces. Choose a workspace according to the task you require to perform.
