Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

This was a silly experiment using 3D 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!

Made 100% in Anime Studio Pro 11.2 (all vectors) but a version for Anime Studio Pro 9 is included.

There are a few ways to create the static, but this example uses the 'spots' layer effect. Using a switch layer I flip between a few versions to create the animation.

Note: The effect can only be seen once rendered

Please do comment below if you have a better way of doing this.

Create several horizontal bones. then in frame one rotate them to create the path. The snake layer (a vector layer inside the bone layer) must be moved from one extreme of the bone chain to the other. The body has to have several points to move smoothly.

The rendering of this animation was painfully slow, during which time I noticed a few things, which in hindsight, I could have done to make this look better. I thought of a better way to rig the octopus's tentacles and also a better method of using particle effects to create the schools of fish. However, a good few lessons learnt whilst making this animation, which is always good. I used Bone Audio Wiggle to make the octopus's tentacles move in time to the music on the guitar, and the particle generator to create all the fishes from one fish.

This was fun to create with smart bones. If you use it just send me a link to it so I can smile..

This is another TV with static effect - This one is more 'cartoony' as requested by SillyFanz on YouTube
This version uses a particle layer to create the lines.

3D and reference layers were used to create this animated gif in Moho 12

Masks and referenced layers were used to create this animation.

Two particle layers with different masks create the effect.

Backgrounds in Clip Studio Paint. I enjoyed animating the artificial horizon on the flight deck. Also my first use of the "Create Shape" tool to punch the holes in the windows. Question... should I move the speech bubble with the camera movement? I tried stationary in one shot and moving in the other.
