The workflow uses a proxy deformation approach, walking through importing and segmenting splats, creating a KineFX skeleton, binding it to proxy geometry, APEX logic, animation, Look Dev, and Karma rendering. Project files are available on Gumroad as a starting point for your own Gaussian Splat animation work. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
