Anime Studio 6 Pro - HD Youtube tutorials online
I have uploaded 3 new "tutorials" for Anime Studio 6. They mostly cover the pro version at this time, but some of the information is applicable to Debut. I will be doing more of these focusing on specific features and techniques over the next few weeks.
These are best viewed in HD quality (click the HD button in Youtube) and set to full screen. I'm pleased with the quality... uh... the video quality. The content quality is up to you guys to decide.

I've just seen your first part of the introduction and I noticed that when the action is being edited, the time line doesn't get cyan like in the previous version. Is that correct? The cyan timeline was a very good thing to not get lost between actions edition and main timeline edition. In fact I prefer it a darker color. It is customizable now?

Not sure exactly what you mean. Are you talking about the dark blue line around the time line in 5.6 when editing an action? I don't have any "cyan" color but those can be changed in the GUI prefs. You may have something changed that I don't. Or it may be part of the "linux" system that controls it.
The action view in the time line is VERY VERY clearly different from the main time line in v6. From my point of view not having really created a lot of actions in AS 6 before doing this tutorial I wouldn't get confused at all.
The main time line view is a "dark gray". The action time line view is "whitish". Very clearly different.
Yes, you can change the "background" of the action time line in the GUI preferences. However it is listed under "text background". Whatever color you choose for that effects ALL text box background colors.
I think the default settings are fine for me. It's very clear. Even more so than 5.6.

To be more precise the color is (in HTML): e7ebef
The thing is that you were editing the action in the sequencer not the Channels so I cannot see how does it look in the sequencer.
Just one advise. Don't be so nervous with the mouse during the explanations. It is very distracting to have all those pop up menus meanwhile you're explaining just one of the new features.
In the introduction I've missed an example of the multiple layer selection.

Thanks Synth <sigh>
I was so hoping that was "right" but deep down I knew it wasn't. I did this EXACT SAME TUTORIAL 5,000,000 TIMES... Okay... maybe not that many times. but it sure feels like it. I would bet in every single one before this one I never mentioned fills and shapes... <sigh>
If anyone is interested... Camtasia is worth EVERY FREAKING GOSH DANGED PENNY! Camstudio... crap.... wink... crap... Camtasia? FANFREAKINGAWESOME! I did this thing so many times in Camstudio... every time there was some glitch either in the audio, video or after uploading to youtube. Camtasia was PERFECT.
I will do a simple audio patch over that section and reupload it ASAP. IN the mean time I can put in an "annotation" in Youtube with the correction. See that? Camtasia... I can just rerecord a short insert and stick it in over the project file and export a new video.
If anyone plans to do a lot of tutorials like this and wants them to go smoothly and easily I highly recommend Camtasia.

Thanks for the tip. I'm planning to make some tutorials in spanish. In youtube there are some in spanish, but they are frankly horrible. Even there are one that actually is a tutorial made by me here on the forum, but with the text captured and putted in the video, obviously, with some aleatory techno music on background.heyvern wrote:If anyone plans to do a lot of tutorials like this and wants them to go smoothly and easily I highly recommend Camtasia.
Thanks for this ones, AS really needs good tutorials on youtube, and you have made them pretty good.
PD: it's great, even in normal quality the tutorials can be seen without any problem. Every menu can be read and every point and line can be seen. Fantastic for my slow connection.

Someone said I need to sound more "peppy". <sigh> remember this was take: 3,419... by that time I had said the phrase: "This is a really exciting new feature..." About a bazillion times and I think my heart wasn't in it. Plus I believe it was either very very late or very very early... depending on your perspective of time on a quantum level.DarthFurby wrote:You're voice sounds a little different from what I remember, but it's been so long now maybe I'm going senile.
They are now with Camtasia. I know it seems expensive but when something works and works well especially for this type of thing, it's worth it. Ironically, Camtasia costs more than AS Pro.Love the videos! Kind of fun to make aren't they?

Good stuff Vern, That was both concise and comprehensive.
Is that even possible?
On the issue of spicing up the video, no, I'm not suggesting editing in Vern's interpretive dance show, though it heard it is very good.
Have you ever seen the video copilot tutes? Well ever so randomly an amusing or strange anecdote is thrown into the mix, just to keep the audience on their toes, it lightens the whole thing up a bit just when it start getting very dry and technical.
Interpretive dance might not hurt though.
