I will be using Mark-Kun, which is a free model provided by Live2D. For the tutorial, we will go through some concrete examples of how this is done. When the parameter value is somewhere between two values, the Live2D software will automatically fill in the blanks. These specific values of a parameter where the exact configuration of the avatar is defined are called keyforms. Then, we will define what the avatar looks like when the mouth is open ( MouthOpen = 1.0) and the mouth is closed ( Mouth Open = 0.0). For example, Mouth Open can be connected to the upper and lower lips.

For example, Mouth Open is a parameter that varies from 0.0 to 1.0, with 0.0 being completely closed and 1.0 being completely open.įor each parameter, you can link different body parts that will be affected by it. In Live2D, there are many different parameters that correspond to different movements. Live2D is the most popular software for rigging 2D avatars, so we will be using that.

Prior to rigging, the model is just a static collection of parts, such as eyelids, ears, hair strands, lips, etc. Rigging is the process of defining these different animations. Motions such as blinking, speaking, and tilting the head are detected and a corresponding animation is applied to the Vtuber’s avatar. When Vtubing, apps such as FaceRig are used with a webcam to determine the streamer’s facial orientation and expression. At the end, you’ll have a minimal Live2D model that can be tested with software like FaceRig or PrPrLive. psd file consisting of the different parts of an avatar.
