My first experiment

The result of spending an afternoon learning AS7Pro ... just a short cycle of a phone ringing, using bones to do squash & stretch and the "bone audio wiggle" script to move the handset.

The background was painted in Artrage Studio Pro, everything else is Anime Studio.

I am amazed how easy this software is to use

Not bad for a first try but it looks like the phone is morphing and not squashing and stretching.

When you squash or stretch think VOLUME. The volume of the object should not be lost.

Cool, I'd like to see a telephone cord added so it could bounce around with physics as the phone jumps.

Great advice, thankyou!

Is that image taken from a book?

I will probably add that later, right now I'm still learning the basics!

Thanks,
Lindsay

Yeah, from the Cartoon Animation book by Preston Blair:
