New Animate Course on Building Reusable Animations
This month I am happy to launch my latest Adobe Animate course: Animating Reusable Library Actions in Adobe Animate.
This one builds off the rigging course and shows how to create reusable animations, like walk cycles, in addition to showing how to string animations together to create a cohesive sequence. This course is great if you're looking to keep building your knowledge in Adobe Animate, especially if you desire to produce an animated production.
If you're a Studio or Animator member on Toon Files, this course is already available for you! Just login to Toon Files and let the learning begin!
If you sign up as a Newcomer (the base free account on the site), you can access free select videos from the course. This is a great way to try things out before investing.
Anyway, that's all from me for now. I am already planning my next course, which I will be announcing soon. I also plan to send out more emails and freebies as I continue to work out more of my content.
Thanks for reading! Stay safe, wear a mask when going out and wash your hands!

New Course On How To Assemble a Moho Animation Launching Late January
Hi Guys!
Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful time celebrating the holidays. I am back and have been steadily working on my new course. As I discussed in my last post, this course is going to take all the pieces we’ve learned in all Moho courses published on Toon Files and put it all together to create a cohesive sequence of events with action and dialogue. I am getting close to getting ready to start recording this one.
In the meantime, here are 4 new images from the project. We will be using 2D rigs with a combination of 3D sets, all built in Moho (with some outside assistance from Procreate-created textures).
Once I get a little further into this I will set up a pre-order page on Toon Files (which I will announce here as well). Thanks for reading!
New Course! Building an Actions Library in Moho Pro 13
Hey Guys!
I took a couple weeks off from this blog as I have been going through a few life events. While I haven’t officially announced anything on this blog, my wife and I are expecting our new son in January. I have lots to say on that subject, but it deserves his own post, after he’s here :)
But I also have been working (and playing RDR2 on PC but we won’t talk about that). I set down my animation for a couple weeks to record a new course. Not only that, I decided to forgo the usual pre-release window and release it today. Surprise! I bet your mind is blown.
It’s on the shorter side, clocking in at a little over two and a half hours. I focus on building actions using the new Actions panel in Moho Pro 13. If you’re looking to build actions that can be saved, organized, reused and edited, perhaps for a big production or web series, this course is for you!
If you’d like to get more information on this course, please click here and you’ll receive 20% off if you decide to buy.
I plan to swing back and keep working on my animation. So you’ll be seeing more images, and perhaps clips, soon. Thanks of reading! Have a great weekend!
