How do i make a Custom character in studio with animations?

Me and my friend are working on a game where you play as a cat. so i need to make a custom Starter Character, i have been using this video:

But after binding the joints and doing everything the video says when i open the animation editor and select the "HumanoidRootPart" and try to rotate a body part, it wont rotate.

if anyone knows how to solve my problem or even if you know another way of creating a custom starter character with animations please tell me in the comments.

thanks.

Make sure your rig has a Head and Torso. Use RigBuilder and Animation Editor to build it all together (Search YouTube: "How to make a custom Rig", you should see a grey figure on the thumbnail, it's the tutorial).

When you have built it all, make sure the Rig is a Model and rename the model to StarterCharacter. Now drag your Rig into StarterPlayer.

Test it out !
