Hello, I reviewed your character animation requirements, and the core challenge is preserving the exact 2D character identity across six consistent 3D rigs while producing believable exercise movements with accurate equipment contact and reusable animation workflows. I would establish the pilot with a production ready character rig, clean exercise animation, and a reusable setup that can be efficiently adapted across all six characters without sacrificing movement quality or likeness. I have worked on similar 3D character modelling, rigging, and animation projects and can share relevant samples once we connect in chat. Also a quick question, are the six characters expected to share the same body proportions, or does each character require individually adjusted rigs and animation retargeting? Best Regards, Muskan.
