This isn't exactly a real tutorial. It is just a series of Blog entries explaining on how I did a particular scene of my Vosgian Beast movie, using traditional animation and AS. I thought I'd share it here. Who knows, the one or the other detail may be useful / inspiring to you.

More helpful then a real tutorial.
Really nice. Thx

So glad it was useful to you!

Wow! This is brilliant. Thanks, I really enjoyed reading through the details of your workflow

thank you for sharing your process and your animation is wonderful!

What I should say is that by now, I don't import AVI-Films no more. First, it mostly doesn't work with AS7 (It did with 6!).

Instead of that, I create the animation like the running character and save the layers in a group and then import this group in the main film, with the "import Anime-Studio Object" feature. It's also a bit cleaner.

Thank you for answering my unasked question: "How do you do your backgrounds?" It has a 'painted' effect. I like how it looks. I will start drawing my scenery in pencil and coloring it in photoshop.
Learning to keyframe a character that walks toward or away from the camera is one of the challenges I'm working on. Great tutorial.

Yes, Figures that move in Z-space is a challenge. You will make it!
