Auto Character Animation

Post by nigeldude »

Just as their is a feature to get lip sync animation from your audio files, I'm thinking it would be awesome to have a feature that allows Moho to smartly recognize different parts of a characters body, (head, hands, arms, hip, feet ect) and apply basic preset animation like: walk, run, jump, stoop, wave, dance and so fort.

With Moho recognizing the characters body parts then the animation would stretch to suit different size characters, then for fine tuning purposes we could always edit the key frames created by the preset.

I dont think this feature would be possible.

Though you could a couple of presets and tell moho which preset to use for each part and then moho would create keyframes according to the presets.

Though I think it often would become a complete mess, unless you have a specific amount of points in each layer, and somewhat the same shape.

But I don't like the idea. I like more personlized animations, and the less automatic features, the better. But ofcourse, the possibility to do this would be great, even if I probably wouldn't use it. Though if you could make your own presets, then I'd like it. But I think it's quite complicated to accomplish.
