After taking all that time to show you guys how to do 2 point perspective in Anime Studio, I thought of a MUCH easier way to do so!!

That's alright though, live and learn! It does has some limitations as the view can get really skewed when working on a larger canvas but the pros outweigh the cons I think. It was just too cool to not share so I just made this really fast for you guys!

Hope you find this useful!!!

I admit, I'm not that great at making background art in Anime Studio as I'm way more comfortable with other programs like Illustrator because of their tool sets but I also know that many of you would like to know how to do all of your creating in Anime Studio or MOHO so I made this.

It just shows the basic principals of using vanishing points just as you would if you were drawing on paper and truthfully, it get easier and easier as you do it.

This was fun but it took a lot longer than usual for me to do (about 2 and a half hours) as it's still a new process to me as well.

Hopefully some of you guys find this useful and if you have questions about it I can try and answer!

The add point tool allows you to add points to an existing shape or to draw an entirely new shape.

In this tutorial you will learn the point binding method in Moho Pro 12. This popular rigging method is the best way to bind multiple layers to one bone or multiple shapes to one layer.

A couple of uses for the Curve profile tool...
Discuss here: http://www.kelleytown.com/forum/animators/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=811

The reason the shape moved so much when i moved that point was because it was the first point I drew when creating the shape - so it uses this shape origin as the starting point for wrapping the profile. Moving other points causes much less warping

Correction: "I keep calling the mouth one shape, but really it's one object... they are separate shapes connected or joined shapes. The mouth object sits on only one layer." jg

A quick explanation of how I set up a character in Anime
Studio Pro 7 and animate them using point level animation. A great way to add stretch and squash to your characters.

If you find this explanation helpful then please comment so that I know to make more. I could also make some more detailed tutorials.

Thank you for watching.=)

Perspective is very important for when it comes to drawing anything, especially scenes. In this video, we take a look at how to set up a basic set using one point perspective. While we do this in Anime Studio, it can really be applied to any drawing software, such as Flash.
