Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

This is another physics-based tutorial in which you learn how to add physics to your character inside of an animation. You need to have the pro version of Anime Studio pro (at least version 9 I think) or MOHO 12 pro in order to use the built in physic engine.

This tutorial is easy to use but the results can vary widely due to the fact that physics animations just do what they want but that's the fun part! Playing with just a couple of settings can really change the outcome of your animations in just seconds. Sometimes they look great and sometimes they can be a twitchy mess. But if you looking for a fun easy way to automatically generate a character falling or have an object to explode, physics is the way to go!

Just play with it and have fun! Couple of things to REMEMBER, you need to have bone strength turned on for a rigged character to have physics applied to it. Also, while a character is being affected by physics you can NOT animate it! Pose your characters before and after physics is turned on!

This is an update/tutorial on making a rigged body turn character and creating lips for female characters.

This tutorial probably wasn't necessary because it literally can be summed up by saying "Watch my character creator tutorial. See the part where I make mouths? Just do that but add lips!" LOL! The same can be said about making a female character really. This is no difference in the construction of a male or female, just slightly different art. But I suppose this is good for those of you who just want to see creating mouths and that alone so in that sense it's good.

The body turn at the beginning is a little ambitious but I want to make a character that can really dance so I'm making it to see how much better I can make a music video like I did before with all of the new improvements to AS. Just wanted to keep you all posted!

I've made a few tutorials about walk cycles before but I still get a lot of questions about them so I thought I'd make this quick one to show you how to make a walk cycle in detail with instructions and also how to easily change it into a run cycle and change the pace in which your character moves.
It's very simple to do if you have a rigged character and for those of you who have MOHO 12, my character included in the library already has this walk cycle included with it so you can easily use this to convert it into a run cycle if you need!

In this tutorial we animate a simple scene with a character jumping over a puddle. We draw the character in Photoshop and import him into Anime Studio. I explain how to set the character up for import, we rig some bones to his legs and have him say a few lines, using Switch layers for the mouth.
