Character week begins with the APEX Scene Animate SOP. This will be very new for many people. Don't worry - this node can be used with existing rigs that come with Houdini or are in the Content Library.
Here is another tutorial that uses that node: How to Pose and Animate Electra [www.sidefx.com]
This lesson uses the Electra rig which comes with Houdini. You can also use other characters found in the Content Library [www.sidefx.com].

Thanks early contributors for giving me the courage to tackle this entry. I had no clue about this Apex thing and initially though I would have to rig my own character... but then I realized everyone was posing Electra.
So here is my entry, and yes, this is a real pose (I use to shoot these for the swiss poledance championships when I was a photographer) and yes I have posed every finger. I even add fingerprints on the pole bar (if you know anything about this sport you will understand why)
Plus I gave Electra a bit of subsurface scattering and shine to make her robot skin a touch more human
Everything rendered in Karma which I am starting to enjoy!

DAY 18 - Apex Animate
My first try at the Apex animation system & COP2 network!
When someone says "pose" instead of animation pose my mind goes to yoga pose
So here we are:
Today Electra is rocking the tree pose, Vrikshasana, in her morning yoga session.
Namaste
