You could either start project with third person template or to stay true with the video series you could open a project with third person template and migrate the mannequin with his animations over to your project. To do this open the template and find the mannequin folder under the content folder. Right click on the fbx and goto asset actions. Select migrate. It will open an explorer window. Navigate to your blank project and be sure to drill down to the content folder of that project to migrate or else it won’t work. It’ll even pop up an error telling you to put it in the content folder if you try to put it anywhere else.
I will certainly help you where I can. Ask away, my pleasure to help. I am humble to admit I ask questions too. The game dev process is complex. I started in modeling and animation 10 years ago and have added other skills as I go. Try to do the same and you will be able to make the game you dream of. Best wishes my friend.
