thekamps Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 I always liked the cut-out style animation like used on Nickelodeon's "Blue's Clues". I really liked how it was used in "Olive the Other Reindeer" which mixed 2D and 3D. I don't really know a lot of the 2D apps and the ones I tried, I always had problems with something. So I thought I'd try it in A:M. because that's what I know. The ease of modeling, texturing, rigging, and muscle mode, all made it go so fast and easy. Here is a little test I did in just a few hours last night. (The character design is from a children's book) 7 layers (pupils, eyes, head, teeth, arms, body, leg1, leg2) - all flat objects 2Dtest.mov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishman Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 That's cute and looks really good. Reminds me of a program called Moho (http://www.lostmarble.com/). Actually similar to A:M in that it uses splines to create animatable flat characters. Rigging is similar, too. Check it out. Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossk Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Good idea and execution. I'd really love to see some shorts in a similar style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
