I had some down time today and I decided to try a program a friend recommended to me. Character Animator is part of the Adobe Creative Suite and one of the few programs I hadn’t even opened before.

I spent some time watching tutorials today, and by the time I was finished I had this little character that I created that would respond to sound and movement from my webcam.

The best part was that it entertained my children for nearly an hour as they talked to the screen watching his head bob with their motion and his mouth move along with their words.
