Layer parenting, animating without bones

Post by Kasper »

Hi, I'm pretty new to this program. I followed the tutorial, browsed around a bit on the forum, but there's one thing I can't seem to figure out.

I've made some cut-out animations in after effects before, and I was wondering if the same way of animating could be done in AS.

I just want different parts of my character to be able to move and rotate as if I was making a traditional (handmade) cut-out animation. So basically the bonesystem but without the distortion of the limbs.

Layer binding.

Each image you import is a layer and needs to be bound to a bone. That's all.
