Anim8or Community

 Heres a thought.
 Mobile phone content is another way you may possibly be able to make some money.

 I'm there, under the name of Froyd, although i haven't been very active.

Hello again.
 Was cleaning out and came across these.
 Thought i might as well post them.

 1) Awarkinthapark.

 I started this short vid 2 or 3 months back.
 Never finished it.




 2) Sequences.
 This one was going to be part of a tutorial i started making about sequences, and how much of a cool thing sequences are. You can build a library of sequences, and then those sequences can not only be added to l8er anim8ions, but can also be mixed together to create new mixtures of movements.
 The trick is to only key the necessary bones in the sequence, and then be aware of any overlapping keys in Scene mode, when adding new sequences.
   Hand sequences are a fast way to anim8 hand movements in Scene mode. (think hand 'poses' in sequence mode, that become sequences when added, one after the other, to scene mode.)
 A 'standing still and throwing a ball' sequence can be turned into a 'walking and throwning a ball' sequence by adding the 'throw' sequence to the 'walk' sequence.  But you need to make sure that the 'walk sequence' has no keys that will interfere with the 'upper body throw sequence'.
 This is done in Seqeunce mode when making the sequences, and also in Scene mode, by editing or deleting unwanted keys that may interfere with the sequence(s) that you are about to add.

 Probably a fairly worthwhile tutorial to make,?, but first i need to finish 'Eart'. 




 3) Expressions
 This one i made 2 or 3 years ago, not long after Steve added 'morph targets' to anim8or.
That was a magic addition to Anim8or, and if i remember correctly, painted weights were first added at a similar time.
 Both of these additions were a massive boost to Anim8ing in Anim8or.
 Kudos Steve. MAGIC.

 The bicep needs to be a seperate object.
 When adding eg: object 1 to a bone, everything labelled as that object will be imported to figure.

 Select bicep -> cut -> go object -> new -> paste.
 Now name the bicep. ie: right bicep

 Now, in figure mode, select R bicep bone -> add object. Choose new object named right bicep.

 Hope that helps

 I've only just noticed it myself.
 When i sign in to youtube and hit the upload button, the upload page has some rules and restrictions on there.
 Max size = 1GB
 Max length = 10 minutes.
 I might be wrong, but thats how i read it. ?

 Hello there.
 I've been working on this short movie for a wee while now, and last night i thought i'd make a short preview.
  Some things could use tweeking.
 The movie itself is now at 9 minutes long. Mostly done, but more sound to be added, and movie needs ending.
 I've just realised that youtube have a 10 minute limit, so i may be able to finish it under that time, or i may have to release it in parts.
 We'll see....

 Heres the link


and i've posted a pic, which hopefrully will be shown below.

 Bye for now

 See if any of your softwares has chromokeying.
 If so, there will be information with your software on how to use it
 Its a bit too involved for me to explain here.

 Chromo-keying removes a chosen colour from your pic/video, leaving transparencey where that color used to be.

 Not too bad.
 The cut tool is a very handy tool.
