๐จ ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ผ๐ฃ๐๐ข๐๐ฉ๐ค๐ง๐๐ง๐ค is a groundbreaking tool designed to revolutionize the way VFX and Animation artists create animations within Maya. By allowing you to draw motion paths directly in the viewport, this tool converts your gestures into animation curves, making the animation process more intuitive and artist-friendly. Whether you're animating cameras, objects, or characters, GestureAnimatorProย bridges the gap between traditional drawing and 3D animation, bringing a natural feel to your workflow. Let's elevate our animation creation process to new heights! ๐

๐๏ธ How to Use the Updated GestureAnimatorPro:
Select Your Object:
Click on the "Select Object" button to choose the object you want to animate.
Set Timing Parameters:
Adjust the "Start Frame"ย and "End Frame"ย to define the duration of your animation.
Draw Your Gesture:
Click the "Start Drawing Gesture" button. This will activate a drawing mode.
In the viewport, use your mouse or tablet to draw a curve representing the motion path.
Click the "Stop Drawing Gesture" button once you're done. The gesture will be converted into a NURBS curve.
Apply the Animation:
Click on the "Apply Animation" button. This will attach your selected object to the drawn curve as a motion path animation.
Clear Gesture (Optional):
If you wish to redraw the gesture, click the "Clear Gesture"ย button to delete the existing curve.

๐ ๏ธ ๐ผ๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ๐๐ก ๐๐๐ฅ๐จ:
Viewport Drawing:ย Use your mouse or tablet to draw the motion path directly in the viewport. The tool captures your gestures and creates a NURBS curve.
Motion Path Animation:ย The generated curve is used to create a motion path animation for your selected object.
Adjustable Parameters:ย You can further tweak the animation by adjusting the motion path settings or editing the curve.
Visualization:ย The curve remains in the scene, allowing you to visualize and modify the motion path as needed.
Compatibility: This approach leverages Maya's native tools, ensuring better compatibility and performance.
