New User Trying to get to grips animating in Moho

Hi Everyone
There are some wonderful animations here and I am always amazed and inspired by what can be made using Moho.
I have just began to use the software and I am mainly using it to produce animations for music video. The thing that lets me down at present is my knowledge of some very basic animation skill. I am a reasonable story teller and Moho gives me the ability to, let's say cheat my way through my lack of knowledge.
I hope to improve the more work I do. In the mean time here are a couple of animations showing my first efforts. All comments welcome, especially advice on how to improve a forward facing walk. Ronnie

I like your style! Good choice of colours, good use of filters on found pictures. If your animation improves, this can lead to some really wonderful results.

You're off to an EXCELLENT start. Great imagery and presentation. The Moon Man song was really very good. You have a good tone in your story telling, pulls in a strong sense of sad nostalgia.
Keep up the good work.

I would check out Poptoogi's youtube channel for all sorts of Moho tutorials. Not sure if there is a front walk cycle there, but here's one from NeetersGuy

I thought to add here my issue with cycle since I thought it's similar enough to the initial issue. When I try to cycle the bone translation of layer mentor I get this ticking movement instead of the smooth interpolated movement that I would get if I had left its keyframes alone. I have a sample of it in the file attached in the hyperlink. Will anyone advise?
