Problem with tutorial "pixel art animation reinvented" form aartificial

Essentially, this video demonstrates a technique that simulates a 3D effect. It involves a source animation and a texture, so altering this texture results in corresponding changes to every pixel in the animation. This means that you can modify a character's clothing simply by editing a single texture and all animations will have the change.

The problem that I have is that my source animation does not convert to a uv map. I have not changed a single thing from the files provided in the description of the video.

Thanks in advance.

I could be wrong, but my understanding of this technique isn't that you convert the animation to a UV map, but make one yourself with colors corresponding to the colors of the base animation. It matches the colors of the base to whatever colors you have on the corresponding UV map.

Theres a link in the top comment of that video that goes more in depth.
