Adding backgrounds to anime studio debut manual#

There are several things I learned a long the way that the manual doesn't explain. Adding a mouth and making it talk is fairly easy. You might want to check out Parker's tutorials. It was hard for me, but I'm sure its possible. I've tried importing images and then making them animated. You can import photos as well as video for backgrounds. By the way, whether you go with debut or pro, you'll want a audio mixer of some sort so you can change the volume, pitch, length, etc. I stick with MP3 because that is what I export from my mixer software. I'm not sure offhand all the different filetypes. You can import any audio file as long as the file type is supported. Same for my question of importing a photo of a real spoon and being able to turn that into a character that comes to life with the bones technique, mouth movements and audio.įirst, the sales department personnel should be severely punished. No one has mentioned whether or not I can import a regular photo (like a picture of a bar) and use that as the background for a scene. I've got one vote for Sony Vegas and another for Ulead Video Studio. So the question then becomes, if I have 4 characters in one scene and I input voice overs and use the lip sync function for each character, will I be able to do all that in Anime Studio if all 4 characters are exchanging dialogue? Are there enough tracks for something like that? I know I will be doing this and using the lip sync function where you drop in the audio file and Presto! the character's mouth moves in sync with the audio. You guys mention recording voice overs in Audacity (which I was going to do) and importing it into Animate Studio. I am starting from the very beginning here. Whatever version I choose HAS to have a 'beginner's mode'.

However, you did not say whether or not the Pro version has the 'beginner's mode' like Debut 7 has. tonyg, you mention that I should get the Pro version. For example, you create your animation, create your scenes and audio and then piece it all together for a finished product all within Anime Studio. I thought that was something built into the program.

That indicates that video editing software is a must. sbtamu, you mention that Animate Studio only allows up to 2 minutes per scene.

Thanks for the input, guys, Some of your responses have brought up other questions I now have: If the alternate route is the best way to go, what video editing software would you recommend if I'm only needing to add additional audio files? I'm assuming that if I take the alternate route, I wouldn't need anything fancy in the way of video editing software. Would an alternative be to do most of the work in Debut (animation along with the characters speaking using my voice over audio files) and then import it into a video editing software program that allows multiple audio tracks so I can add sound effects and a sound track? Say the debut version doesn't allow for additional audio tracks to be added and the pro version doesn't offer a 'beginner's mode'. So based on the what I have listed above, should I go with Debut, Pro or perhaps an alternate route?īy alternate route, I mean this. Since I am so new to this, the beginner's mode would a MUST for me. Now I know the debut version has a 'beginner's mode' but I'm not sure if the pro version does.

He told me to download the pdf manual but I couldn't find how many tracks the debut version offers. I called the sales department and asked if the debut version allows for multiple audio tracks. import my own voice over audio files that I will be creating in Audacity import a photo of a real life object (like a spoon, for example) and make it come to life using the bones technique, adding a face and making it 'talk' Import real life photos for background scenes. So here are the details of what I want to be able to do:

I have an idea of what I want to do for my animation but I need some help from you guys on which version I should choose or if there is an alternate route I should take. I am a beginner and when I say beginner I mean I have never used any type of animation software.
