Posts: 1 		I just downloaded the free version of Muvizu to see if it can help me make a bunch of animations to describe the use cases of some products. It looks perfect so far - I just need to figure out if I can get characters to hold a cell phone or ipad and act like they are texting. Also get them to type on a laptop. I don't mind making some custom animations or 3d assets, I have an extensive 3d animation background, I just want to know if its possible. I would imagine this is a common action people want to animate, but didn't find any examples. I understand I will need the play+ version to have the character hold anything.

Any help much appreciated!

Update: Just had a look at this (pretty rubbish) video of mine form a few years ago, and the start definitely has the action:
