Amazing. Great art and smart animation. Lovely. Ido'nt know if it's made in moho or any other cut out philosophy software, but it looks like cgi. especially when the little wolf is walking around the three.

Nice, charming work. A lot more difficult than it looks...
You can't have everything. Where would you put it?

It looks like After Effects.

Really very nice indeed. Maybe it was done in CelAction? The characters seem to have jointed, rather than bendable limbs.

Just as a matter of interest, here's a storyboard version, which I found quite instructive...

In addition to being cute and touching, I love the artistic design and textures.

Can this be done inside moho? or do image textures have to be created externally and then applied to the vector objects?

I think, that graphics were done in an external raster design software, and late imported in moho as a PNG file with an alpha channel.

Raster graphics in Moho

Post by ming_goku »

I wanted to say, it could be done by this method...but i'm not sure that the short were done in Moho.

I wrote him and asked him how it was done (I also told him how much we liked it). I asked him if he used Photoshop and After Effects for it (my guess). Here's his response:

bingo. i sketched and painted everything digitally with a wacom cintique monitor (the glass tablet where you see where you draw) in p-shop, then imported it all into ae.
and thanks for the kind feedback.

Thanks for the info. I want to know if is possible to realize a project like this in Moho. The program is able to work with this kind of graphics, and the animation quality depends of yourself. But is stable enough the program to work with heavyweight rasterized images?. And what kind of machine we need to make a project like "Hidenseek"?.

"is stable enough the program to work with heavyweight rasterized images"

Yes, I use bitmaps all the time, usually 720X576 PAL resolution output on a 2,4Ghz Pentium. Playback is not so fast when editing but it rarely crashes. Just try it out, takes a lot of .png files with transparency and throw them in Moho. Keep preview quality to low for rough editing. I've used images that were 1000ths of pixel wide, no problem. I'll put some in the showcase forum soon.

Have fun experimenting,

Reindert.

Thanks nobudget, i want to develop a long project with that technique, and i noticed the problem of the playback, but i hope it not will be a serious problem.
