Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

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!!!

Although this is an old idea of Víctor Paredes, that he used in a couple projects, it's still relevant now.

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

In this 1-hour webinar Victor Parades will show you how his workflow for character rigging has improved with the new features of Anime Studio Pro 9. Using Smart Bones, Victor will demonstrate how to set up very simple bone rigging to complex simulated 3D rigs which would have been impossible in previous versions. Watch this professional artist at work and gain a valuable insight into his workflow.
