Anime Studio Pro 5 Tutorial
This Anime Studio Pro 5 Tutorial video course takes you step by step through this powerful 2D animation suite and shows you how to make the program work for you. Introductory lessons take you through the user interface and the fundamentals of the program so that you can take on more difficult design challenges with confidence as you progress. The flexible format of the tutorials let you learn at your own pace. Each segmented video-based lesson allows you to pause and rewind, skip past or repeat whole lessons as you need to.
There are random sites across the web that offer you tips for doing certain tasks with the software, but their quality is unreliable, and none take you from start to finish the way these tutorials do. Designed and narrated by a real animation expert, these video lessons have the additional advantage of teaching you by direct example. Geared to the human mind’s ability to learn visually, each tutorial features a real-time view of the application being used as its supposed to, with an expert guide explaining techniques one step at a time. These tutorial videos are available on CD and DVD, and since they’re Mac and Windows compatible, you can learn anywhere you have a computer.

Powerful Features of Anime Studio Pro
This program gives you access to tools and features typically found in animation solutions that cost double the price. While the title might suggest a toolset geared toward anime-style cartoons, it’s a capable drawing and animating solution ready for a multitude of projects. This versatility is possible because of the program’s rich feature set.
The bone-based animation design tools allow you to add natural points of animated movement to an existing 2D image. This is great for beginners because it allows you to animate more quickly, so you get tangible results more quickly. For more advanced users, it means you can leverage much your existing graphics from Photoshop and Illustrator to your advantage. The bones themselves can be linked together to create natural joint movements in characters based on parameters you set.
The vector drawing support in Anime Studio Pro is also considerable. It’s easier than ever to create seamlessly scalable vector objects and adjust their points. And if you prefer free-form drawing, the support for tablets and pressure-sensitive brush strokes make this program a compelling choice.
Anime Studio Pro also incorporates 3D elements into your 2D animations. You can import OBJ files created in your favorite 3D programs and make them part of your project, and a new adjustable 3D camera allows you to view your characters and scenes from interesting cinematic angles. Effects like motion blur and depth of field adjustments will provide your projects with the extra pop and polish that you’ve always wanted for them.
While Anime Studio Pro 5 is more accessible to the new user than its competitors, it still takes a knowledgeable user to get the best results. This tutorial series will have you creating screen-ready animations in less time than you think.
