They are not smart-props. This gives you the option of attaching the signs to the character and body part of your choice. The placard carriers load in the shown progression, front to back. Based on their positions you can add additional marchers. • Note that all Activists share a synchronized marching pose. It is easier to make individual or group variations starting from uniformity. • I suggest using uniform lower-body march pose for the 5-Marcher banner set. The linking of arms is set by the XYZ axes of the hips. Re-pose just the sets of individual legs for this set. For other marchers, use other lower body partial poses from other poses in your library. • Activists Action includes a lot of hand poses. Save some of these as hand-poses to your library to switch around between the characters. • Once you have a full set of Banner or Placard marchers set up: Import a small Cube Prop at center stage. Make this cube the Parent of each marcher in a set. Doing so allows you to rotate and move each group as a set, rather than one by one. It is quick and efficient. The Camera and Lights do not have to be moved. (Note the consistent shadows for each group.) You can hide the Cube-Parent during renders. The translucent pink cube below the center marcher is the Cube-Parent in these 3 views. You can also apply this technique to a randomly grouped set of marchers. Individual figures can still be moved around independently within a Cube-Group. • Some Michael 8 poses have a Body size of 100%, Standard for Genesis 8 Male. This is to have some variation among male characters in the set. Michael 8 standard size is 104% of G8M. If any group poses seem off, check and adjust the M8 scaling. • To add color to the Banner sign “wraps” around the poles, go to the banner’s material settings. For the material listings for “Default_Pole” and “Default_Pole_(2)” add the custom color you have set for the front of the banner to match. Or, apply the same wood texture that is on the top and bottom pole sections. • Signs are the only props included. No other props shown in the promo images are included. • No partisan or political agenda is intended other than patriotic participation in the process of free speech.
