One quirk with more complex masks is that they may not display correctly in project view. If you find something wrong, always do a quick render cmd-R to check.

Anything you put into the same group can be masked by the same mask.

The basic concept is like this:
Any movement happens between 2 keyframes. Create one key with the element at start position and one key with the element at end position.

There are several ways to prepare images for Moho (Hell, I already sound like ChatGPT!). It depends on what you want to do with them. - BG images: just import them as they are. Images of more than 5000px or so of height tend to slow dwn Mmoho, so avoid this. - Props: cut them out in your favourite b...

Very nice! So much to like here. But why is the first tentacle playing under the bass strings?

Yes, I sometimes have this with my rigs, especially in side view. 3 tips: - build the rig in a way that it's not exactly sideways, meaning, that left and right leg bones are not at really exactly same positions - zoom in really deeply before selecting a bone. It helps to name bones ("left thigh...

Particles haven't changed much over the years ...

I suggest you open the existing particle presets under Scripts and study their settings. There's a Rain already which you may find useful. Just play around with settings, and with emitter size and placement.

What I do: on my own website there are some examples. Then there's an additional portfolio PDF which I send if asked for. Finished films are mostly online somewhere so I could link to them. Many people don't really understand copyright at all. Any © watermark on your images doesn't prevent you from ...

You can do that sort of stuff if you have that sort of a budget ...

Seems they finally sorted it out, as the playlist is more than 200 entries now, and all entries are there in full (but still contains some portrait teasers). This is about as much entries as I expected beforehand, maybe some more will be added until tomorrow. So far I only found 1 familiar name, had...

At first: yeah ... on the other hand: they cropped and beat it into portrait ratio??? I feel this is kind of insulting ...

The general concept of keyframes is this: you create a key at the start of a movement (and set an interpolation, if necessary) and a key at the end of a movement. Otherwise Moho couldn't guess from where in time you want the movemen to start.

Easiest way to do this: duplicate the layer in question. One stays bound to the rig, the other is free. Switch visibility where needed.

I'm definitely on your side here. I don't really need new functions, but there are some UI hassles which bother me for years now. Some of them: (note: this is still 13.5 since I haven't used 14 yet - never change versions while in the midst of a project!) - When I zoom in on the timeline the keys be...

Looks great. And I like your stance about the whole process, it's similar to mine.

I'm curious about the finished thing, it will be interesting to see if smooth inbetweens go well together with this kind of zappy animation.
