Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

D page turn made in Anime Studio
Pages are made from images which can be changed.
Images 2,4 and 6 need to be mirrored for effect.

This is a reproduction of Matthew Cruickshank's animation that was used to celebrate the 125th birthday of Bessie Coleman on Google.

This version was made 100% in Moho Pro 12 using D layers.

D coffin made from extruded layers in Anime Studio - With animation

This was a silly experiment using D layers and particles.
You can download the file used to create the video but Anime Studio wasn't happy to create this and did crash on me several times. The render time was also more than 12 hours!

The buildings only use two sides to speed up rendering

2D model able to turn arround and making D effect

First the tiled image is created in Moho and exported as a looped video.
Then in a new document, a D torus shape (created with a circle in a D layer) has this video applied as a texture.
The texture needs to be sized and aligned correctly for the effect to work - trial and error.




Changing the shape:

Changing texture size:

Another option is to use a static texture image, and then rotate the circle shape.

Made in Anime Studio Pro 11.1 only using layers.
There are 3 colour styles
A smart bone is used to control layer order - so you can view the car from behind.
The windows are semi-transparent, so if the view is too high, then the inside of the car will be visible, but as there are no seats this may be unwanted.

The car drives down a basic D city. The camera moves along from a sky view.

A small animation has been added to the timeline, but further scenes can be easily created with this setup.

The buildings are kept simple to help with render time.

This setup could be used when directing or creating storyboards.
