Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

This is a follow up to the "Switch Layer Dials" tutorial. It is just a faster easier way to set up a smart bone to control switch layers!

In this video I'm using it to rig a mouth switch layer to a smart bone and then us the bone to help me lip sync!

A 1000 thank you's to Victor Paredes for clueing me in on how to set this up the easy way and to show me how to use the copy previous keyframe function in Anime Studio! Awesome all day!!!

I thought I'd make a video on how to make a smart bone action control switch layers. I also wanted to show a quick set up on making a smart bone dial that is set away from the character.

I should also mention if you want to make a visual reference smart bone you can just make it so it just controls a specific switch layer off to the side without linking it to another bone as well.
The reason I made the first example linked to the hand is so that in a busy scene, your control will always be near the hand!

My character was just getting too many switch layers in it so I'm in the process of creating a few of these switch layer controls and I thought I'd share as always!!!

Three ways to rig a character including smart bones.

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.

In this tutorial you will learn how Smart bone actions work in Moho Pro 12 and how to set them up properly to create better bends and other cool stuff! Smart bone actions were introduced back in Anime Studio 9 so any versions above 9 also apply

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!

For Anime Studio and Moho beginners and people struggling with Smart Bones. I keep the drawing to as basic as you can possibly go, and discuss some of the common errors I see people make with both creating limbs and with adding smart actions.

The new Smart Bones feature in Anime Studio Pro allows you to have more control over shapes when you bend them with bones. You can use Smart Bones to control the following types of scene elements.
