Anime Studio Ideas are shorter, more obscure how to videos about ideas I resolve while working as an animator. These ideas are pulled straight from projects I'm currently work on that I feel may help 1, quite possibly 2 people in the entire world, but I need to get them out of my head.

This one is a simpler idea but important and relevant to most of us. This was also a request that was so sweetly asked and I'm happy to have helped. At least, I hope I did! Happy Animating!

This is a quick comparison of After Effects to Anime Studio and ASP's amazing timeline capabilities when it comes to point and bone animation. This video will show you how to select points or bones in order to zero in on the exact animation you'll surely need to edit eventually. Animation is Editing Animation... let's face it!

Upon request I'm covering how to organize and rig bitmap artwork. There are several methods of how to create your art and then bind that art to bones.

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!

This tutorial is really the same a the morphing tutorial but connected to a smart bone action so you can change your character at any time real easy.
This would be great for any characters you need to transform back and forth throughout your animations like a vampire character or a werewolf.
You can also use this technique for other things like animating hair growing or items transforming.
It's quick and really easy to set up once you have a character rigged!

This is how to create an X-Ray effect in MOHO or Anime Studio using two separate characters and then rigging them to the same set of bones. Then, all you need to do is add a little bit of masking and boom! I believe this will work for even much older version of Anime Studio as long as you've got the masking option!
