Hi...

Unfortunately we don't currently have a tutorial on SVG 360 head creation using Illustrator.

However, you can find a lot important information (some Illustrator specific) in the PDF document found in the Vector Resources below. You can also find sample files and templates to help get you started.

In addition, you can also find general 360 Head creation tutorials on the page below which are still relevant when using SVG files.

Hi Peter,
Unfortunately I am one of the many thousands of creatives who suffer from dyslexia and really need a visual tutorial.
This new feature is exactly what animators wished for to be able to zoom in and out without losing the sharpness, to change colours and show/ hide opacity.
You’ve upgraded all the packs to svg but we have to send them to photoshop instead of a Vector editor?

Please can you make these tutorials a priority

Hi Dary,
Generally, tutorials for cartoon animator miss a lot of steps in the creation process.  You might find yourself getting stuck again and again.  It helps to have good problem solving skills. 

Have a great week.

That was a really helpful comment

Hi,

We have already forwarded this request to our learning team.

As I know, the tutorial about SVG with 360 Head is under production and will release soon.


Appreciate your patience.

Thank you for your reply to this post Steven.
I am really looking forward to seeing this and hope that it’s not too long before it arrives.

If it helps anyone, I am currently writing a tutorial on how to design and rig a G3 actor for Cartoon Animator 5. It is a work in progress that is constantly being updated. One of the chapters I cover is the creation of 360 Heads and the steps I use to do it.
Having worked with CTA for ten years and created hundreds of characters for the Marketplace and Content Store, I have a good idea of what I am doing and I am looking forward to sharing my knowledge with others. 
I am a Corel Draw user, but maany of the steps (in particular 360 Head setup) will translate easily. 
If you would like a FREE copy of my tutorial, please send me a private message via my Cartoon Animator Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/garrypyeanimations
