◆How a shot actually goes
Blocking to final. One belt, all the way through.
AnimBelt removes the repetitive steps that sit between you and the performance — the locator you keep rebuilding, the curve you keep re-fixing, the bake you keep babysitting.
001 · BLOCKING
Pose the way the shot needs
Temp IK, temp pivots, aim locators and surface pins are one click each — so the rig stops deciding how you block. Mirror, nudge and selection sets keep passes moving.
002 · SPLINE
Timing without curve surgery
Tween and ease sliders, range-accurate copy & paste keys, cycle matching, retime and TimeWrapper work on exactly the keys you picked — not the whole curve.
003 · POLISH
Arcs, overlap and clean handover
Editable arcs and motion trails to see the path, overlap and jiggle for secondary, foot pinning that kills slide, then fast bake and scene cleanup before you publish.
◆What’s inside
660+ actions. One toolbar. No more script hunting.
Everything below ships in the same file. Nothing to download separately, no plugin folder to manage.

Built on real shots
Made by an animator who had to hit the same deadlines you do.
14+ years of character and creature animation across feature and episodic work — including Love and Monsters, Finch, Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV and Trollhunters / 3Below. Every tool in AnimBelt exists because a shot needed it, not because it demoed well.
◆Installing it
Drag it into Maya. That’s the install.
No paths to edit, no userSetup.py, no plugin manager.

Before you buy — compatibility
AnimBelt is purpose-built for Autodesk Maya 2022 to 2027 on Windows. It is not compatible with macOS or Linux, and it is not a Blender, Cinema 4D, 3ds Max or Houdini tool. If you are on a supported Maya on Windows, you are good to go.
◆Updates & support
AnimBelt keeps getting new tools. You keep getting them.
New versions ship regularly. For the latest version, or if you need help with anything, contact Ramzan Mulani directly — you will be talking to the person who wrote the tool, not a ticket queue.

◆Questions
Good to know
Will it slow my scene or playback down?
No. AnimBelt is a toolbar, not a rig or a deformer — nothing is added to your scene until you ask for it, and any temporary rig it builds is removed again when you bake.
Does it change my rig or my file?
Only when you tell it to. Temporary IK, pivots, pins and locators are built on demand and cleaned up after baking, so the rig you were handed stays the rig you hand back.
I already have my own hotkeys and shelves.
They stay. AnimBelt ships its own Hotkey Manager and a drag-to-arrange shelf drop, so you decide which actions get keys and where the buttons sit.
Can I use it on a studio machine?
Yes. For multi-seat or floating studio licences, get in touch before buying and it will be sorted out.
How do I get the newest version?
Message Ramzan on Discord or email — see the Updates & support section above.
One toolkit. Every shot.
Stop rebuilding the same locator, the same pivot and the same bake on every single shot. Put the belt on and animate.
