   While the heading of this post is “import video as scene background”, and you can’t just grab any video file to do so, you can accomplish the requests of both comments in Character Animator now. By importing a PNG sequence. Once you’ve turned the video background you want into a PNG sequence, using an encoder/transcoder like Adobe Media Encoder, then, in Character Animator, go to:

   File→Import Cycle→
   (browse to PNG folder and click on first image of your PNG sequence)
   →Import

   You will create a puppet in your Project panel with the name of the sequence folder. Open this puppet in the Puppet panel (Rig workspace) and apply the Cycle Layers behavior to the root puppet layer. In the Properties panel, under ‘Behaviors’, you’ll see your Cycle Layers behavior and an item that says “Start” with a corresponding drop down menu that defaults to “Immediately”. Click on the drop down and choose “Synced to timeline”. At that point, return to your ‘Record’ workspace and add the puppet to a scene. It will appear as an item in your timeline. When you press play, it will play in sync with the CTI (play head) and you can use it as a background or like any other scene puppet. Hope that helps!

   As of the April 2019 release, you should no longer have to increase mouth strength for parallax to be effective.

    Scene Cameras have come to Character Animator 3.0 in the November 4th, 2019 release. Find them by clicking Scene→Add New Scene Camera. You can quickly setup and toggle between camera views or apply keyframes to the camera for more elaboration.
