Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

Animestudiotutor.com competition entry for February - animated to audio clip from "Ernest Saves Christmas"

Made 100% in Anime Studio using 3D layers.
Not perfect, but gives you an idea of possibilities.

Note: Anime Studio is not really 3D software - it's 2D software that can move layers in a 3D space, and as such, this manikin is very limited in movement.



*I noticed after uploading that the far hand was in shadow! This could be corrected with a slight turn of his hand.

This is Magic Lives in every Snowman .

Each character is poseable with bones, is drawn with 8 different views and has switchable hands, brows, eyes and mouths. Created by Prof Stephen Colbran at CQUniversity Australia and drawn by Ms Karen Dishaw.

The snowman is a 52 sec animation created by ViktorTakacs - The movie briefly presents weird events of snowman's last day.

About ROBOMAN2022

After the submitted Xmas contest animation I continued to work on the snowman. He can now turn his head side to side up and down and the body can turn to one side. Added a smart bone for the scarf. Cleaned up the rig so he can turn and bend without getting all distorted. Also a few styles to easily change colors of buttons, scarf, gloves & nose. Enjoy!!

We all remember sitting in front of the TV for endless hours with a stack of Oreo cookies slathered with peanut butter (we do, don't we?)...what were we watching anyway?!?! Well, it may as well have been Man Who Is Actually A Spider! Although I think the production values, poor as they are, may be better than those shows we were watching.
