I just started Anime Studio today, and I'm kind of stuck. I get how to draw your character and make the background and all that, but how do you get the "bone rigging" thing to work to actually move your character? And do you have to use frames, and if you do, where can you find them? I really appreciate whoever answers this. Thanks!

In conclusion, I basically need help with the "animating" part of it.

And the lip-syncing and mouth moving stuff too.

Have you read the manual and followed the tutorials?

read the tutorial that comes with it... go through step by step. "help-welcome screen-tutorials..

yes you use frames. see the timeline at the bottom, each number is a frame. but anime studio makes it easy by automaticaly putting in frames between each movement. example= open a new project. make a circle in frame 1. then click frame 24, and move that circle to the right, using translate layer. clik play and watch =) AS fills the frames for u.

im also a noob and still getting down the bones stuff... bought it yesterday =)
