Beginner Animation Tutorial?
I am curious about animation and want to see what it all entails (I'm sure a lot!) I have looked on Youtube for a staters tutorial but I think most of them are geared for Daz 3 or 4 versions ago. Does anyone know of a good resource that applies to versions closer to current? Just something to use as a jumping off point. Thanks!

OMG! Nevermind! How did i miss a WHOLE section on this right on this page. I apologize to the 9 people that viewed this questions for the slap on the forehead they must have given themselves when they read it.
If you are serious about animation in DAZ Studio, the must have plugins are KeyMate and GraphMate. They don't seem to be mentions in adamr001 list of animation resources. IMHO these are essential for creating custom animated motions. They are a huge improvement on the DAZ timeline. AniMate2 is the full version of the AniMateLite that comes free with DAZ Studio (I believe you have AniMate2 for the first 30 days free, then it reverts to AniMateLite). AniMate2 is for combining pre-made animation sequences. You can purchase a number of animated sequences, but the selection is limited.
If you want to purchase any of these plugins and money is a factor, wait until they are on sale.
