Re: How is this Moho 14 sample project being animated?

Have you tried "show all bones" in the bones menu?

Re: Is there any way to quick preview of the animation in Moho?

Having a 30-sec-scene is common in my kind of work, so I understand the OP's wish. However, in praxi (if I dont use batch render) most often I hit render , only to notice a serious blunder in the first second the window pops up: forgot to re-activate a layer or something like that. Then I just stop,...

Re: how do i add a glow effect like this?

Lots of different ways to do this, however, they have one thing in common: you have the original layer, plus one or more FX layers over and under it. Usually I start with just duplicating the original, then layer blur it. Just play around a bit with blur and opacity settings and blend modes.

Re: Lip Sync setup

Agreed. In real life lots of sentences require no lip movement at all. The anime way with just closed - half open - scream works for a lot of scenes. And bear in mind how old those Preston Blair drawings are: nearly 100 yrs now! We surely have changed taste and style a lot in the meantime. Animation...

Re: Lip Sync setup

No, as far as I understand Rhubarb uses the Preston Blair system, which means you need to name your layers exactly like that, with upper/lowercase. Layer order isn't used here. The other automatic lipsync is the one where you assign an imported sound file to the switch layer which will react accordi...

Re: Lip Sync setup

I just wrote about that topic here: https://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=216937#p216937 2: Automatic lip sync only relies on the position of the layers inside the switch layer. Closed mouth on bottom, most open mouth on top. 3: Good thinking. Put the different emotions switch layers into...

Re: PNG over saturated on image sequence import

Usually a PNG image should be pretty reliable in terms of colour. Could you post an example image?

Re: Eye rig- making lids invisible?

If the lid is not masked, I make it "invisible" via point animation: just make it so small and place it on another outline.

Video with alpha on Mac OS for FinalCut - workaround

Several tests later... So ProRes alpha-ALAC doesn' work because it doesn't really write an alpha channel. If you export a movie from Moho, render in ProRes PNG-alpha , which cannot be played in Quicktime player, but will import to and work with alpha in Finalcut. FinalCut no longer has an option to ...

Re: Where is ProRes 4444 with alpha in Moho Pro 14?

Update: I've installed the newest FinalCut on the new machine as well. No new codecs available (although I instaled an update with "additional professional formats"). Then tried if the new version has that bug fixed that it didn't remember the length I set for bulk imported images. Guess w...

Re: What was that name again? – Animated loop for my Moho Webinar

Over the last 2 yrs I did _a lot _ of lipsync animation and experimented with several ways: fully automatical, switch with and without interpolation. I found that in a mainly interpolated switch lipsync I can get snappiness in when needed by just duplicating the last key and put it right before the ...
