Workflow summary

 
 
 

Using Maya’s character set feature involves defining the character set and then animating it. Defining the character set includes creating the character set and editing its collection of attributes. Animating the character set includes setting the current character set, and then setting and editing keys. For more information on defining character sets, see Creating Character Sets. For more information on animating character sets, see Animating Character Sets.

By setting up characters with character sets, you can provide a complete, ready-to-animate character whose essential attributes are all gathered together for the animator’s convenience. Once you’ve done this, character setup is complete and animation can begin.
