Positioning the characters in the scene

With the assets for our background and foreground in place, it’s time to bring in our rigs, set up the first frame for our sequence, and start adding Chaz into the scene.

Importing and positioning Chaz

To import Chaz into the scene, take the following steps:

1. Go into the rigs group on the Project panel.
2. Click and drag CHAZ onto the scene.
3. On the Behavior panel, resize the layer to 31% using Scale.
4. Rearrange the layers so Chaz is behind his desk, but in front of his chair.

Move Chaz down and move the feet up to hide them behind the table. This will make it look like he’s sitting in the chair.

You may also find CHAZ’s whole body tilts when moving your head to control...
