Adobe Character Animator puppets are the latest craze rapidly taking over the marketing industry. Ever since Adobe made this software available for the mass user over a year ago and then enriched its functions in April 2017, everybody has become super impatient to try it out themselves. Generally, having a cartoon character mirroring your gestures takes the whole process of creating an explainer video to the next level.
Easy to figure out, you cannot just drag and drop any graphic into the software and expect it to behave the way you want it to. Making an explainer video of new generation requires a cartoon character adapted exclusively for it.Back then, when the Beta version got updated, we did some testing to see how our characters behaved there. After spending several hours of playing with the software and having quite a lot of fun, we managed to make characters recreate the camera motion perfectly.

I. Pre-made Adobe Character Animator Puppets
A couple of months ago Adobe has released an official version of the software called Adobe Character Animator CC (see what’s new). For us, this news put the beginning of a new generation of characters: pre-made Adobe Character Animator puppets.
Super excited by the opportunities the software presented, we’ve launched an Adobe Character Animator puppets category featuring puppets with pre-built features and basic triggers available for download. Go to Adobe Character Animator Puppets Storeand browse the gallery of pre-made Adobe puppets:
All Adobe Character Animator puppets in this category come with the following pre-built features:
- lipsyncing;
- facial expression tracking – puppets follow your eyes, brows, and mouth;
- expressing emotions such as happy, sad, angry, surprised;
- gesture control of the arms and the head;
- hand triggers such as pointing, giving thumbs up, and waving.
By downloading, you get the .Aiand .Puppet file formats. This means puppets can instantly be uploaded into the software and you are all set to start recording!

II. Custom Adobe Character Animator Puppets
1. Partial customization – an existing character turned into a puppet.
All of GraphicMama’s current static characters can be animated!
The brand new video making technique doesn’t necessarily require brand new cartoon characters. With just a few tweaks to any existing character of your choice, you will see your chosen puppet in a new light, mimicking your own gestures and accompanied by your voice-over.
More than 500 characters are available in the gallery of characters. Any one of them can be turned into a puppet and copy all your movements to perfection. You can request extra features and have a full control of your puppet’s movement. If this is the first time you hear about our characters, feel free to have a look.
Important! These characters are static and if you’d like them turned into Adobe puppets, you’ll just have to place a custom order.
2. Full customization, a.k.a a brand new puppet.
You can have a puppet created from scratch, according to your vision and your requirements. So, if you’d like to have a unique character created for you, here is how the process goes:
- You pick a character as a base for the puppet or request a whole new character. We can make it look like you, or whatever else you want, really!
- We do a special abracadabra transformation to adapt the character for Adobe Character Animator.
- We deliver you the whole package and voila! You’ve got your own Adobe Character Animator puppet all set to start mirroring your movements right away.
- Drop the file into the software and watch the magic happen!
