Moho (Anime Studio) Tutorials

A switch layer with numbers in.
This could be used for a digital clock, alarm, count down etc.

Here 60 seconds are shown in a gif:

I can't upload all the files, because they are too heavy so I only uploaded 15 seconds of animation https://www.youtube.com/c/CiclicityAnimacion

One of these days I'll manage to make a short animation of just 10 seconds or so . In the meantime, I hope you enjoy my entry for this month.

A happy snowman battles through the difficulty of losing his hat in a snow storm...will he find it in the heavy falling snow?! You will have to devote 29 seconds of your life to find out.

This is a file template that is standard for the Japanese animation industry. It has a working time/frame counter that counts the frames and at every 24 frames 1 second will go up. This was configured with the standard Japanese and American frame rate standard of 24FPS. A timesheet and example timesheet is also included. The timer will stop working at 48 seconds.

Additional info there are two Moho files one with the camera set up for Japanese standard 1080p and one at the traditional layout resolution 2338 x 1653 it is important to note 1080p version is recommended and it will automatically scale up when 4K, 8K, and 16k is set and it will also downscale properly to 720p if needed.

Note in project settings AA is disabled as this is the Japanese anime standard. Reenable as needed.

Created with bones in Moho Pro 12 which rotate via a parent bone, seen highlighted in red in the following image:



The bones that change the image have a bone strength. They also have the independent angle option on.

Each rotating bone is animated a few seconds forward on the timeline to create the effect. The bones nearest to the pole are shorter to slow the rotation and effect down. These bones have also been set as 'shy' bones to make selecting easier.

The image can be easily changed to any flag, but I've used the Welsh flag here:



This method isn't limited to just waving flags, it can also be used for water effects too!
