One use might be to apply exaggerated squash and stretch movement to your characters without directly distorting the character rigs themselves.
With Vector Smart warp you can create meshes that can warp entire character rigs either as they move or as they pass through certain areas of the screen. I had assumed this would work similarly to the Smart Warp Image version of the feature, and it does to some degree but is even more powerful. To make his eyes open wider for emphasis on Here I'm applying a vector Smart Warp to Alvin Once created you can key frame single points or groups of points and the mesh will determine how surrounding areas will be affected. photos) creating the mesh will isolate just that area of the image the mesh covers and make the rest transparent. This new feature is pretty much a way to animate almost any shape through the creation of a warp mesh. Though an added bonus seems to be that now freehand vector lines are now created with fewer points than they would have prior to Bezier Handles being implemented. They work pretty much the same as they do in other vector applications to create and modify curved lines. It's not an essential tool but it sure makes working with switch layers more visually fun.īezier Handles are a standard in most Vector drawing applications but apparently this is the first time anyone's thought to include them in Moho. It gives you a visual image of the current switch layer and allows you to key frame from the window instead of in the layers palette. The Switch Selection Window is a more user friendly tool for working with switch layers (such as those used for lip syncing animation). It's a great way to stay organized and to keep content you use repeatedly across animations close to hand.
You can have multiple work spaces, saved as templates, so you can choose which work space suits your latest project. Work Space Creation is about setting up your preferred folder structure for new animations so that, whenever you start a new animation you can set up folders automatically and get animating sooner. You could skip it or watch it for a preview in the tutorial videos ahead. The first in the list, Pro New Features is pretty much just a run down of new features covered in more detail in the upcoming tutorial videos and includes some features already covered in the previous eight videos.
