What you will learn

Properly Rig a Character

Create Bone Dynamics that Link to a Smart Warp Mesh

Apply Subtle Head Turns with Smart Actions

Animate and Polish a Short Scene

Why take this course?

With Moho, you can import images or Photoshop Documents, add bones and create detailed rigs for 2D animation. This process can be different from rigging vector based characters. This course showcases all the important steps needed to effectively rig a PSD for Moho animation.

More specifically, you will learn how to:

  • Set up layer structure for a character

  • Reduce PSD file size

  • Set up body bones appropriately

  • Create dynamic hair movement using Smart Warp meshes and special bone properties

  • Control the face using a series of dials

  • Create head turns using a Smart Warp mesh

  • Polish and correct rigging issues

  • Apply animation with an image based rig

  • Export animations out of Moho

I did everything as said by the teacher but the import method doesn't work with moho pro 13. I have no choice window. Wasted 2 days of work and 50 euro on this.

Quite insightful, I had problem grasping some stuff before now but this class really made Moho look so simple.

I am only on section 2 of this course. The instructor has a very pleasant delivery. He is clear and concise with follow along examples of everything that he is presenting. The instructor is competent in character creation, Moho, and Photoshop. The information that he has given is very valuable though not what I was looking for in particular. If I continue in this course I will update this review with a thorough evaluation.

Full to the brim with expert tuition. You’ll need to re-watch over and over to get the full benefit. So much packed into this course.

Instructor is great! Very clear and well-spoken. I like how he repeats himself and says everything he is doing step-by-step so that you don't miss a beat. Really great stuff!

Es una forma practica de resolver ciertas dudas sobre el ring, aunque hace faltan mayor introducción a las herramientas

It was solid, step-by-step, professionally presented. I've had Anime Studio and Moho for a long time, but learned a lot about the gaps in my knowledge. I chose the course on rigging bitmaps because they are drawn directly and seem more individual than the smoother, often too perfect vectors. At first I wasn't sure why Chad replaced the eyes with vectors, but it's good he showed how to mix techniques. Having a model downloadable character to analyze at all the different stages is a big plus, so was seeing the animation work flow. I identified several of my chronic problems with setting up and editing animations. I think I learned a lot and am motivated to apply it - but maybe not to create a red-haired character right after this course.

Hi Chad. I really loved this course as I also love drawing in Procreate. One thing I noticed was that the focus did not become clear at varying times in the courses. I started with just a few seconds in to progress towards the end for almost the whole of some courses. However I am familiar enough with Moho to have been able to follow along.

I have gone through most of the Udemy Moho -trainings and this is definitely the best course out there. Course structure is very clear, speed is good for me and after every lecture, you can download the files!

Good pacing and explanations. Does assume familiarity with interface. Just something of which to be aware.

Another excellent Moho course from Chad. I feel far more comfortable with the complexities of rigging dials and handling subtle movements after this in-depth course. I suggest you follow along with the instructor, rather than just watching. I learned so much more as I made mistakes and corrected them.

I wanted to use Moho for a very specific purpose: rigging raster images (PSDs) and animating with bones. I'm part of the way through this course and it's going very well! Nice well thought out source files and great walk throughs. I know a lot of work went into making this tutorial but it flows well, very well done!

Chad does a very good job covering everything you need to know about Moho so you can take the learning experience straight into your own personal projects. He is clear and concise, the material covered is well-paced, and if you have a question or suggestion, he will respond and also update his course if necessary. He made an entirely new 16 minute video documenting my suggestion of using a custom script in Photoshop. See, Section 2 : Video 3 - This sort of hard work and dedication just cannot be beat. For such a short course I really did learn a lot over the past couple days. This is a good standard for Udemy and I hope he moves on to making more tutorial content. ---

I wasn't sure if I would learn anything new, but alas I saw something that I haven't tried with the mesh rigging everything including vector point. I thought Mesh can only be applied to photoshop layers. Otherwise its everything you need to rig a photoshop type character.
