Thanks for the opportunity to share our work. There's a lot more to come. Glad people like the format.

I'd love to see more walkthroughs in this exact format from Armchair Productions and other studios that use Moho (i.e. Q&A with summarized follow-ups from host with multiple guests and a runtime of around 30 minutes). I think it would help a lot of us newcomers shift out of neutral as well as attract many more creators to Moho. The short demo videos posted on this channel are cool but don't teach us much. The hour long podcasts are informative but could be summarized to be much shorter. This is gold. Thank you!

Haven't even watched the full thing yet but can already tell that this is a great idea for a new format!

[SuperSlimeSoda]

This was a nice insight. I only scratch the 5% surface of Moho's protentional in animation. I have a lot to learn 🥰

[rickarroyo]

The more I learn Moho, the more I want to learn Moho.
I loved this new format, I hope more come.
I just think the interviewer should wait for the answers, it was a bit "rushed".
But overall it was very good

Hey great to run into you folks on YouTube! Well done intro to your process. Moho definitely changed the way I work (goodbye DUIK) and it is ROCK SOLID. Look forward to seeing more from Armchair!

Thank you so much for this one, team <3

I am excited to start working on my work. Currently, I am training, and I am beginning to create characters, and the amount of information I have is large. In the previous days, I practiced preparing my hands. I do not know what to say, just Moho saved me, with good luck Moho.

Thanks for stepping through the process Armchair are using. Nice work.

[FibrousPlanetsWorld]

Thank you for sharing and making this video. Very informative to hear how the pros do it. Also their rigs are crazy amount of work. lol their crazy!!

[Tarjmatt]

I used to duplicate the layer and change colour for shading, so the masking tip is very handy for me. Thank you

[MarkWilsonCreative]

Inspirational work. Thank you. I was excited to see the explanation of mix bones, that's going to solve some rigging problems for me.

[macult]

You created this tutorial when i needed it most🔥

[CreativeSteve]

I just recently bought Moho to try and give it a shot. This sounds like a real good tutorial. I definitely saved it to watch later. Sounds like really good stuff.

[jazzerjoon]

Love the style. Is there a video where you demonstrate character facial expressions and switching between those are talked about?

[inknpaintCW]

Love your style and the end products!
Moho is the most understated application I've used - I wish I had more opportunities to use it!

[yelftea]

My biggest issue with Moho right now is getting used to the vector tools. It's very different from illustrator and I can't seem to find a workflow that allows me work efficiently. I would love to see a conversation about how to be faster in the program.

In the video, Angela talks about bringing in a reference character on a base layer, which is a great tip, but is she aware that moho has a built in feature for this purpose? "Set tracing image" up in the menus, is a great option to bring in reference material at reduced opacity, and has it's own hot-keys for making the tracing image visisble / invisible. You might still want a base layer for color references though.

Wow!! Thank you very much for this video!!! Will Moho be available for iPad one day?

[discerningacumen]

My iOS/iPadOS game "Birdie's Dream" can be successfully made after 7 years of development. And I use Moho Pro's great features to enable this!
