Practical 5

Toon Boom Introductory Tutorial
  • Can import PSD
  • Copy everything onto different layers
  • Bitmap - photos
    vectors - editable
  • Name everything appropriately
  • Arrange layers in order
  • Click drawing area to draw
  • Colour in 'c' area
  • Can adjust smoothness of brush (like illustrator)
  • Pencil - smooth lines; thinner
  • Change parameter to exchange drawing in frame - e.g drawing a new hand
  • Substitute drawing
  • extend exposure + add key frame
  • Keep same image on timeline
  • to start animating:-  use transform tool
  • group files (add drawing layer >)
  • drag layers on to one another to 'parent'
  • organise all moving parts onto different layers with groups i.e. head including eyes including pupils
  • Layer >  insert > peg > rotate
  • Use rigging tool to deform; insert > bone (controls the bend)
I think it will take me some more time to get used to using Toon Boom, but overall I think it will be a great software to use.
