Introduction This tutorial quickly runs through the major features of Moho, without going into too much detail. The purpose here is more to give an overview of how Moho works, rather than to teach you how to use any specific features. In this tutorial, we will draw and animate a very simple object. Moho has several groups of tools, used for different types of tasks. Some of these tools are used to create new objects, and others are used to modify and animate existing objects. The basic Moho tool groups are: Draw, Fill, Bone, Layer, Camera, and Workspace. This tutorial introduces a few of the Draw, Fill, and Layer tools, while the following tutorials focus specifically on each of the tool groups. Drawing a Simple Shape Launch Moho by double-clicking the Moho icon, or selecting the Moho shortcut in the Start menu (Windows). When you create a new Moho project, the application starts off looking something like this: Select the Oval tool by clicking on it in the toolbar. In the tool options
The animation itself is good, but I think you’re relying too much on the axis being in the hole of the shoe and not so much about where the shoes really would be if there was some invisible person walking in them.
ReplyDeleteI would suggest you video tape yourself or use video reference of a tapdancer and use that as a guide for the timing and placements of the shoes in space. At times they look a little stiff and the tapping didn’t seem to synch up or look very convincing.
Overall the shoes are well designed so the 2 hours spent on them was well worth it. It just needs a little fine tuning and it will look really professional. The added scene of them tapdancing over the end credits with the weird filter effect kinda confused me. I’d suggest not having them at all over the credits. Just text works fine.
Minor things aside, it was quite good. I look forward to seeing more. ^_^
