I have never been able to figure-out how to use Line Boil. It sounds simple, but it never works like I want it to. Like, a shape I left unselected on a layer with boiling shapes will kinda boil a little, even though it was not selected. It's like, something always goes awry. Generally, whenever I ne...

With the three dimensions you point out [which I'll adapt to include not just voice but all the other sounds so: (visual elements, sound, story)] the overall quality is clearly influenced (dragged down) by the lowest quality element. And to put a nuance on your observation that a bad story is a qua...

so, potentially, you could use an _actor_ (and maybe only one) who can read all the lines and "perform" as the character would (IOW not necessarily a voice actor)? You're right, a voice actor is not needed. A regular actor would work just fine. I agree; one actor could do all the parts, a...

D.K

There are intentionally funny parts in the cartoon, so laughter would certainly be welcome.

Well, not in the sad parts, of course. There are a couple sad parts. If people laugh in the sad parts, that would be bad.

so you get someone to read it and give you the body language, then get a computer to speak it! well ... ok ... it's your production and your pipeline ... No, that's not the process. All the TTS is done . Animation is what's happening now. The problem is that the animation could be better in places....

In a general sense, what you want to do with the lower part of the arm and hand is not possible. Imagine a grilled cheese sandwich. You evidently desire the cheese to exist between two pieces of toasted bread, but also atop of the upper piece of bread. We exist in a world with molecules and atoms, a...

The voice acting is TTS.

So. . .yeah.

LOL

I know that was a joke, but I like how you constructed a gerund from bofur.

"Bofuring" is now an official word. Somebody notify Webster.

Wow, I get to name a thing? I think I'll call it "Body and Facial Reference": abbreviated BFR . Pronounce it Bofur -- like the dwarf from LotR. Here are the rules of grammar I just invented: The process itself is called Bofur. As in: "He does both voice-over and Bofur." The video...

Is there a term for contracting a voice actor to do a reading, but not for their vocal performance, but for the video reference of their body and facial expressions while performing so the video can be used as a reference when animating?

I'm glad you found a solution. Whenever I'm trying to remember a Moho process that I forgot how to do, I sometimes make mistakes while searching for the correct result. Sometimes those mistakes create strange behaviors that make no sense to me. Whenever that happens, I find it's often easier (and qu...

STYLE INFO Thanks for writing that. You answered my nebulous question in a way that answered my question and my follow-up questions. I feel like a video game character that just added another skill point in Moho. 8) Your post made me search "UX." That's a nifty term. ("User Experienc...

No, anywhere is fine. But wherever you save the file, that's where Moho looks for it next time.

Instead of using File > Open Recent, try navigating to the file and double-click it to open it.

The AI character never blinks.

Did you save the file to a usb-drive and not plug it in?
