Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

This handy button will create backups of your Moho file.

Moho has a built-in auto save feature (preferences > documents > auto save for crash recovery), but this simply saves a copy of your work every few minutes, and you can't roll back to an earlier version if you wanted to.

Clicking this new save button will ensure you have a copy to fall back on later.

Hey, what's up, everyone. So this tutorial is really, really simple but it also is really useful and could potentially save you a LOT of time when it comes to having your characters make eye contact or look at moving objects in general.
The tutorial teaches you how to create a simple eye rig and use the targeting function to have the pupils look directly at an object at all times.
It only takes a minute or two if you construct and again it will save you a lot of time so you don't have to keep keyframing eye positions! If you have any questions, suggestions or concerns, leave a comment down below!

This is a tutorial about using the curve profile tool. It's something that I think most new users are unaware of or don't really know how it works so in this video I show you it's basic functions and how you might apply it to artwork and animations directly in the program.
It's really easy to use once you get the hang of it and it can really save you a lot of time when creating details.
I also show you how to use the follow path tool a bit in this tutorial to show you how to create a moving tank tread and wheels as seen in the intro part of the video.
As always if you have questions comments or concerns just leave them down below and thanks for watching!

This tutorial might be a little confusing because I ramble and I don't edit my videos much so bare with me because this one can REALLY, REALLY help you speed up you animation workflow! Actions have been a part of MOHO/Anime Studio for a long time but I'm kinda slow so I didn't really recognize the power they have and how helpful they will be to anyone learning how to use these programs.
Actions are small (but can be very long and complex) animations that you can save and reuse throughout your animations. They can be tricky to learn but once you do, you'll use them all the time!
Hopefully, I explained it well enough but I'm just getting use to using them as well but if you have questions, just ask in a comment down below. You can also check for other tutorials on youtube that explain actions or go to the MOHO Pro 12 facebook page or SmithMicro official forum if I can't help! In any case, it's something worth knowing!
