I made it this video long because I want beginners in particular to see how long it actually takes to put a character together. This isn't even the most complex character I've seen and it took a few hours to make it look and function right. I've run into a lot of problems when I first started using Anime Studio and truthfully I still do but it's really just about figuring out how to solve the problem and a lot of my solutions are in this tutorial!

I really didn't want to make another super long video but there were just to many people asking me to make it so I had to give it a go. I think short tutorial for awhile is the way to go for awhile anyway. (I know, I said that last time!) In any case, please let me know if you found this useful, if it was good, bad, boring, helpful….whatever it may be. I want to make the best videos I can and really appreciate all input. Also, for any Anime Studio users, question. Would this type of character you would buy or would your rather make try and make it yourself? I'm asking because I'm going to start making artwork animations to sell online and want to know what animators are most interested in. I'm going to continue to make tutorials and then try and sell items I think you guys would like so let me know!

How to Anime Studio: Workflow Basics: Character Animation: Episode 3

We will animate Batman from our rigged Anime Studio file from Episode 2. This episode focuses on Animation Principles such as anticipation and follow through. We also look into Key Poses and In-Betweens while we work on animation with bones, keyframes, cycles, switch layers.

I had this thought on how I could make an audio equalizer animation and ended up making this tutorial. It's made in Anime studio Pro and involves using a bone, a mask and a couple of layers. I would say it's probably for intermediate users but I'm sure beginners could watch and follow along and get some really useful information on how anime studio works!

Join Fahim Niaz, Mike Clifton, Jason Cozy and other Anime Studio team members in this 1-hour webinar as they review the exciting new features in Anime Studio 10.1. The team will demonstrate new workflow improvements and feature enhancements in Anime Studio 10.1 including timeline markers, "shy bones" (@21:30), updates to GPU acceleration, saving to Anime Studio 9 and exporting to FBX. All of this plus more! The webinar will conclude with a brief questions and answers session.

Hey everyone, this tutorial just shows you how to create a hood for your characters by using two different layers that are bound to one bone and then how to add a smart bone action to it as well.
It's very easy to do and doesn't take too much time. I'm just long-winded in my explanations sometimes.

Part 1 shows how to draw and organise your layers. I use Mike Kelleys 'Swiss Army Points' tool, available at www.animatorsforum.com to make drawing easier, but you can do everything with the stock tools.

Working with Anime Studio Pro, we create mouth phonemes through masked layers and smart bone actions. This setup helps us have infinite mouth combinations and to complete manual lip sync in a unique, efficient way.

Everything you need to make amazing, professional animation. Moho™ Pro 12 (formerly Anime Studio Pro) offers the most powerful 2D rigging system of the market and mix it with traditional animation tools, allowing to get professional results easier and faster.

See what's new in Moho Pro 12, including:

1. NEW! Bezier Handles: Get more design control with customizable vector bezier handles. Create unique line bends with fewer points! Freehand Tools produce less points as well!

2. NEW! Select Switch Window: Lip syncing and other frame by frame animations are easier to achieve! All Switch Layers can be viewed and keyed with the Select Switch Window. Having a visual interface speeds up animation tasks!

. NEW! Smart Warp: Create custom meshes that can bend, shape, twist and animate assets. Works for both images and vectors!

4. NEW! Improved Vector Import/Export: Import or export vector files without compromise! With improved SVG support, all points, lines and colors will transfer. This creates possibilities for true multi-software workflows.

5. NEW! Realistic Motion Blur: A new setting allows for true motion blur. Control the amount of frames and blend. Apply to any moving asset for instant results!

6. NEW! New Layers Window: The column based setup allows for searching, filtering, tagging, commenting and organizing layers. The columns are customizable and finding the layers you need has never been faster.

7. NEW! Auto Freeze Pose: With Auto-Freeze Keys turned on, when you move a bone, all other bones in the rig will be keyed. This ensures body parts only move when intended. No more floating bones!

8. NEW! Animate Multiple Layers at the Same Time: Get MORE done by editing multiple layers on the timeline in Moho™ 12. No more jumping back and forth between layers for complex tasks!

9. NEW! More Timeline Enhancements: Mute individual channels to isolate actions, split X, Y and Z channels for more control over your animations and more.

10. NEW! Pin Bones: Add one point bones to alter, move and reshape assets in fun new ways. Combine with traditional bones for more complex animations. Works with both vectors and images!

Common pitfalls that many run into when flexi-binding. Bone strength actually has to be bound to layers or points in order to properly function when using selected bones for flexi-binding
