hey Uel designs I'm a small time creator and animator and artist and I just started open toonz and thank you for the tutorial But I'm having troubles with the animation I can Can't make the mouth move Any Suggesting to help out?

[@UEIDesigns]

@travislane3109 Hello there ^^ ur welcome Regarding your question ! I'm planning on doing a video about lip animation. so I do look forward to it ~ But i can tell you for sure that in order to get the best mouth animation, u will need to consider separating every part of it Like the teeth, tongue, and even the upper and lower lip ! To make ur lip syncing as accurate as possibe

[@hirohunter1094]

this like puppet pin in After Effect..which one more easy? pro-cons?

[@UEIDesigns]

@hirohunter1094 i did try both of them, and tbh both have the same results ! The pros for Opentoonz is that the interface is waaaay much easier to be dealt with and very beginner friendly, unlike AE. A bonus point goes for the program since it is free, too ! As for the AE the only Pro i could think of is that it is flexible with any file format u plan to work with it, like it could be Photoshop , pic format(jpg or png) and even illustrator however Opentooz can only read Jpg or png format ,if u were to add a photoshop file in it u won't be able to edit the picture in OT anymore.

Thanks

[@shashlik_omelasun]

please tell me, what is "Trecker" in OpenToons😢

[@UEIDesigns]

@shashlik_omelasun I'm sorry, but i didn't understand your question?

[@lofwyr5063]

Opentoon can do this, but it can be unstable, save often. The autosave sucks. Save manually, and often. In fact, turn off autosave and save manually....often!

[@user-rq7jn9ce9i]

I need help.😢 Every time i add image into the software it doesn't appear i don't know how to fix it 😢

[@UEIDesigns]

@user-rq7jn9ce9i double check your image format ! Opentoonz only works with jpg,png formats. If it is a web format, u will have to convert it ! However .. If the format isn't the problem, then please try this Go to browser and right click on the image u added into the program, then click "expose in x sheet" it should now appear in the drawing panel

[@agustingomez7172]

nice tutorial, do you know other images editors on Linux?

[@UEIDesigns]

@agustingomez7172 Do you mean for rigging or for normal editing ??? If u mean photo editing then Photopea is my go to !

[@880-4]

Live2D ain’t got NOTHIN on this 🙏🙏🙏🔥

[@UEIDesigns]

it would never 🔥 🔥

[@AngeloXHunter]

do u know why i have to add a movement key first in order to animate the image? like i cant not animate unless i move it in the first frame

[@UEIDesigns]

@AngeloXHunter it is because u need to record an "animation" first ! as if it is a way to tell the program that a change has happened or this shape look like this Most importantly u need to be careful not to add any other key animation with a big movement without recording the first idle animation since it would be harder for u to get the shape back to it original look

@diverse4985 of course, more is coming ! I also have three other rigging tutorial u might find useful, so feel free to check them out ^^

You know... This is not rigging, I mean, yes, you create bones and all that, but... this is a plastic tool, it’s like... a symbol in Adobe after effects, but real rigging with tension can be called using the “skeleton / bones” tool there you just place the anchor points as needed and expose the skeleton. The plastic tool loads the program very much and it will be very difficult for you to render anything longer than 3 seconds.

[@UEIDesigns]

I do understand that the Bone tool could heavy the system abit, but still it's still a great detailed tool similar to AE's, To some AE is alot more of a heavier program unlike Opentoonz and is pretty much costy, the point of this tutorial is to help those who are trying to find good affordable alternative especially to MV creators and editors who are searching for enjoyment (noting that their type of content is APART OF THE SHORT MEDIA and doesn't require a fully length period of time ), in term of rigging this is an accurate example to it ! it does after all help in creating a digital skeleton to control the movement and deformation of a character but in a more simpler term to those new to the concept :)

[@CoolChair123]

​​Wel in that case... That's fair. I'm making animations in this programm, and when I first time found skeleton tool it was just... Amazing, you should probably do tutorial about it(skeleton tool). And also about render farm(we use it to render big or few projects in one time, it's pretty simple, just a little practice) Thank you for this videos, I think it will help a lot of people.😊😊😊@@UEIDesigns
