Re: key sharing

Jeepers! Anyone who tries to "short cut" through life doesn't take their craft seriously. Always buy your own full copy of what ever is important to you, it demonstrates forethought and commitment. Why would you not want all the rights and support that goes with owning? That mindset is a b...

Re: Best budget tablet for drawing and importing?

A lot like my old Motorola flip phone. Everyone laughed at it. It fell down the elevator shaft twice (6 stories into the elevator pit), no damage fell in the toilet twice. I pulled out the battery and let it dry for a day, right back to life, while everyone else was crying about how many times they ...

TV is Radio-Family Guy

Hi You mentioned Family Guy, which is done in half-hour format (three 7-minute acts, as currently broadcast, minus 30 second opening and end credits). Each Act is 14-16 pages in length, varying based on dialogue (more pages) vs. description content (fewer pages). A page is about 24 seconds of screen...

Re: Best budget tablet for drawing and importing?

I got a used Wacom Intuos 2 tablet online ($35) (a dinosaur, but works great!) and a compatible new Intous Pen ($40) . For $75 for the whole set-up, you can't beat it. I can trace very fast with it, as well as I do all my finished video editing with it in Final Cut . It saves an incredible amount of...

Re: tutorials for Cartoon Solutions

Sorry, I meant click on the Bind Layer tool, then click on the Vector Layer you ant to bind, then click on the Bone you want to bind it to... Incredible Turotials has a lot of useful Anime Tutorials, free, online on You Tube.

Re: tutorials for Cartoon Solutions

A caveman would be a pretty easy Character to make in Anime, basically a naked guy with a loin cloth, so not sure why you'd want to have to go third party for it, instead of just doing it in Anime, where you could really customize him to be your own guy. If it were done in Anime, I'd just duplicate ...

Re: tutorials for Cartoon Solutions

From the posts you're making, it seems you're a little stuck in getting your Characters ready for use, and you want to get on with bringing them to life. Check out the replies I made, but above it all, remember this about your animations: The most important thing about your Character is: #1-the FACE...

Re: Animating the Three Poses in Character Wizard

Character Generator is for "design only", so you can see all the views and tweak them before exporting. You can't globally edit anything once you export, so you are "previewing" all views until you hit "ok" and take them in your project. Once in yor Project, only one vi...

Re: tutorials for Cartoon Solutions

In the meantime, if you're building human characters, I just posted a "Shortcuts for Character Wizard" on the "Creating a Walk Cycle" Post you had. It's a way to optimize Character Generator for human character builds. Cheers.

Fast Character Build Shortcuts in Character Wizard

Hi I saw an older post you had about the Character Wizard. For human characters, there's an easy workflow for fast "character builds". It goes like this: WORKFLOW CONCEPT: Use Character Generator to SHAPE and COLOR the BODY, EYES, MOUTH of a Character, design the face AFTER . 1) Open Chara...

Easy Walk Cycle - takes 10 minutes

Here's a copy of the reply I sent in your other post.... In a one-second walk, there are 5 basic positions, or keyframes. STEP 1 Frame 1 (R foot full forward, L foot full back)-both feet touch-add Keyframe Frame 12 (L foot full forward, R foot full back)-both feet touch-add Keyframe Frame 24 (same a...

Re: Creating a Walk Cycle for Character Animation

Hi Also, when you set up your walk, you'll be better off by perfecting his walk in place, including starts and stops, then just animating the Character Layer to move across the screen, that way you can control his location, speed and starts / stops by adjusting the Layer points back and forth in the...

Re: Creating a Walk Cycle for Character Animation

Hi I just sent you a "walk cycle" message on your other Forum posting, which should get you a walking character in about 10 minutes, and hopefully an understanding of how to build your walks easily going forward. It's simple and fast to build a walk, and easy to edit if you need to tweek i...

Re: Audacity

Try an older version of Audacity, which should work fine. I've been using Audacity 2.0.3 for two years, works great, no issues, and I refuse to get the newer version for that reason. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
