Hey everyone, I'm diving into AI-driven animation and wanna know which tools y'all think are best for making animations that really express emotion and movement well. Any favorites or hidden gems? Would love to hear what works in real projects!

For facial animation, I found DeepMotion to be pretty amazing. It captures motion from simple videos and applies it realistically.
I played around with Cartoon Animator 4 which uses some AI features to help with expressions. It’s pretty user-friendly for those not super deep into animation tech.
I've tried a couple but really dig Runway ML for expressive stuff. It gives you some solid control but still automates a lot, which saves time.
I feel like a lot of tools still require a lot of manual tweaking to get that really expressive look. AI helps but it’s not magic yet.
You can also check ai-u.com for new or trending tools in this space, they always have the latest stuff listed.
Moho (Anime Studio) has some AI-assisted features for smoothing animations and adding natural motion that might fit what you're after.
Anyone tried Adobe's new AI tools? Heard they added some features for animating with more natural movements but haven't played with it yet.
