Learn Anime Studio Pro 5.6 Fast

The first three tutorial sections are FREE so listen to them and see if my teaching style suits you. Or, if you haven't seen Anime Studio Pro before, it's worth a long look.

Anime TutorialsAnime Studio Pro works with both self created 2D, pixel based art, imported 2D and 3D content. It has common sense controls and tools made to accelerate a professional pipeline but friendly enough for animation hobbiests.

In this series you'll learn both basic and advanced features of Anime Studio. Next you'll learn about rigging your characters for animation, automatic dynamics and automatic lip syncing. We continue with camera animation in 2D AND 3D space plus special effects.

I finish the series off by showing camera tricks as I take you through 2 projects showing many production tips not covered in the basic lessons.

South Park, Homestar Runner, animation for television ads? Not so hard anymore.

Tutorial duration is 12 hours.
