Watch this webinar recording we did with Moho Product Manager Víctor Paredes on February 8. In this webinar, Víctor will show how to quickly create a skeleton for an illustration and animate a cycle with it, sharing tips, techniques and some fancy numbers to create a fluid animation that will make everyone think you worked harder than you really did. Following the presentation, there will be a Q&A session.

Another very well spent hour. Thanks so much for the cool tricks - relative cycle keyframes finally make so much more sense. I love looping animations and have been looking for such techniques for a long time. Glad You shared this with us!

Many thanks Victor. I was really blind before on how to use bones with sprites. Now I know and this brings me back to Moho from CTA ))

Help! I link bones to layers. But when I try to move bones it's not working. When I move with a manipulate tool it works. But when I try to move with the transform tool, the bones are not moving. And I was not on frame 0.

Nothing really to say, but I enjoyed this video. Thanks for making and sharing it.

Bro y you dont use dynamic bone option for natural movement instead of delay the cycle keyframe?

@mohoanimation Жыл бұрын

It's an interesting point. Dynamics are very good for long natural movement, but they are calculated in context over each frame. It's hard to create a seamless loop with dynamics, because the first frame and the last frame will probably not be the same.

Thank you for this very informative and helpful webinar! I was wondering, though, is it smarter to separate the body parts of a character into different layers during or after the drawing/painting process, if I'd draw a character myself?

@mohoanimation Жыл бұрын

Hello! If you are drawing the character to be animated, then it is better to separate it in different layers from the beginning

How do you sync the cycles up with a music track that is more than 1 second or a half a second between the beats? I tried to ask this question during the webinar, but I was too slow in posting it.

@mohoanimation Жыл бұрын

You can calculate how many frames does the bit cover and use that number as the base of your cycle. To make everything work smoothly, the main thing to consider is smaller cycles need to be always half of the next one and bigger cycles need to be double. In the case of this webinar, we used a base of 48 frames because that number can be cut in halves several times (24, 12, 6, 3), so it allows a lot of flexibility in the animation.
