i literally never comment on YouTube videos but the fact that someone taught me the basics of audition that i started learning a few hours ago and a complete in-depth tutorial about Character animator in an organized-well explained 2H video made me appreciate how much dedication and time you've put in this so Thank you mister.

This is a whole semester of school work curated into 1 hour of high quality real-world best practice. A graphic designer can become an decent animator after watching this course. Thanks for this and all the amazing content on your channel.

I just had to stop the video in the middle and comment that this is one of the clearest videos describing Adobe software that I've ever witnessed. Just amazing. I came here to learn about one application but learned so much about others. Thank you so much!!

[maxamillion]

I wish all software had a person like you to help the way you do. This is an amazing channel, thanks so much!

This has to be one of the most complete tutorial videos i've seen in a while. Good going Team Adobe!

I really like these type of long videos explaining everything, your content and character animator are the things got me into animations and stuff. You're the best teacher for this software.

Grateful for your content

I literally only today learned that this software existed, and I feel so much more confident in understanding what it can and cannot do after watching this video. thank you for the work you put into it

[guksack]

Inspirational and I learnt a lot! I went from it being a normal Tuesday night to "OMG I WANT TO MAKE AN ANIMATED VIDEO". Love seeing the whole process including script writing etc. Great video.

Youtube is full of videos and tutorials but the way of teaching only a few ppl know how to deliver the idea ... You are a PRO .. Thank you

[iwmec]

I am just speechless!! this was freaking amazing, seriously. I have been an architect for 12 years and decided to career shift because I think animating is my passion. This video is out of this world. I can't thank you enough, u're very talented and approachable. U make is look so easy and i hope i come to find it effortless as u do in this video one day.

This is the biggest revolution I have seen in animation. I mean, WHAT !
Thanks Dave, this will really change it all.

This video is my Character Animator bible! I'm working on my first character & first animation and I replay this video hundreds of times. Great job and thanks so much for putting it together.

[abhijeetsaha]

I owe a lot to this video,
Few years back i stumbled upon it and started animating,
Now I am a successful animator, though I use a different Adobe software now but this video will always stay close to my heart!

[TommyMccoyMedia]

Teacher here. You are an amazing soul for this. I can’t express my gratitude for this tutorial!

[techwizja]

everytime time i say "i wanna know how to do something (like the eyebrows for example)" he just addresses it this is awesomely amazing!

[kaxyxy]

From start to end, clear steps. You're probably the best instructor. Thank you so much.

[Phemmy]

This has to be THE definitive tutorial on Character Animator on all of Al Gore's internet. I will remain immensely appreciative. Thank you for your service, hard work, attention to detail and dedication. Thank you.

My God, so much work for such simple animation. Imagine the pain Disney goes through to do what they do.
