About this course

In this course, you will learn about editing parametric avatars measurements and poses, as well as working with external avatars. After completing this course, you will have a basic understanding of how to create a custom size parametric avatar with poses and import an external avatar.

You will begin with how to edit a parametric avatar’s measurements and body shaping. Next learn about external and scanned avatars. This course also covers creating avatar poses for parametric avatars and using the 3D measure tape on your avatar.

Now that you have learned the tools, follow along with the workflow video to import, and set anchor points on a scanned avatar.

Check your retention throughout the course with a knowledge quiz.
