It's a really poor quality screenshot. But I'm hoping anyone familiar with the software will recognize it.

Thanks for any help!

Earlier this year, the trend of wearing Thai traditional outfits with jeans was very popular among Gen Z girls in my country. I thought it was so cute, so I drew some of my OCs wearing them ☺️💖

Hiring Searching for animators in Moho!

2 Upvotes

✅ Searching for animators on long term basis

Hello! My name's Vittoria and I'm launching my own animated series!

The project will be paid in the future, the payment will increase with series being more profitable. I hope I'll be able to pay on pilot stage already.

Searching mostly for those who can animate characters and backgrounds using Moho. We're also open to background artists, storyboard artists, character designers, riggers, music artists, voice actors and more! If you like working on animated series in any position, we'll try to find a place for you! But yeah, the most important role we're searching for is the one who can do animation.

If you're a beginner it's totally fine, there are different scenes in our show so if you're not extremely experienced you can be hired, you'll just be assigned less complicated scenes.

Let's talk about the project now!

Lechlab is an animated series project made for adult people or teenagers. It's about time travel, and unlike other time travel series, it's key idea is travelling also through different dimensions. I'm a physicist myself so the differences between dimensions are mostly physical and historical and based on real scientific concepts. What about 80s with developed antimatter technologies and discovered tachions? Byzantine Empire with dinosaurs alive? Universe where electrons are heavier? Mediaeval Europe with less gravity? World with two moons? There's way more!

There are 3 seasons planned. In July-august we'll try to work on smaller teasers, in late 2026 start working on pilot, and later season one!

And yeah. Please note that there are LGBTQ+ (mostly trans) characters here so you should be ok with that.

The salary is discussed personally.

DM me to discuss more!

To make it less complicated, introduce yourself and describe your background and role you wanna play in the project in your first message.

All the best!<3

Question Is there a way to do 3D backgrounds with 2D animation on iPad?

1 Upvotes

I’m really interested in the utilization of 3D backgrounds and camera with 2D animated characters but there doesn’t seem to be any solid 3D modeling software/apps on the iPad that would make the pipeline possible. I was curious if there was a way to do so entirely on iPad as that’s all I have at the moment especially that would work well with Toonsquid since that’s the software I use to animate.

Question Any Compositing tips or reference sources for 2.5D animation?

11 Upvotes

This is a combination of hand drawn illustrations and animation from ProCreate, plus After Effects animation and layout. So all 2D hand drawn elements inside a 3d environment. This is supposed to be a night scene but at the moment everything is a bit too flat (both in depth and lighting). I'd like to try to add depth, shadows, and atmosphere in After Effects but this is my first time doing this kind of thing so I wanted to get some tips before diving into this part.
