📣 How to give feedback that actually improves AnimWorks tools

This section exists because feedback loops matter. Every plugin, rig, course, and book on anim.works gets better when the people using them share what’s working and what isn’t — so here’s how to make your posts count.


When sharing a review or positive feedback

Be specific about what worked and why. “The locomotion course was great” is nice to hear, but “the section on stride matching in Module 4 changed how I think about walk cycles” is the kind of thing that tells us what to do more of.

Share what you made. If a rig or course helped you produce something, show it. That’s the best possible review.

When reporting a bug or problem

Tag the product category so it lands in the right place — Books, Courses, Plugins, Rigs, Software, or Tutorials.

Include:

  • The product name and version (if applicable)
  • What you expected to happen
  • What actually happened
  • Your software version and OS

The more detail you give, the faster it gets fixed. Vague reports get stuck in the queue.

When requesting a feature or suggesting an improvement

Frame it as a problem you’re trying to solve, not just a feature you want. “I need X” is less useful than “When I’m doing Y, I have to Z which takes forever — would love a way to solve that.” Context helps the creator understand priority and approach.

Tagging creators

When you want to flag something directly, tag the creator in your post using @username. This pings them directly and makes sure your feedback doesn’t get lost. Use it for anything time-sensitive — bugs, critical issues, or things you really want their eyes on.


This is a space where the line between community and product team is deliberately blurry. Your feedback shapes what gets built. Use it. :yellow_heart:
