If you’ve always wanted to animate your own characters, this is where you start.
The Animator’s Blueprint: The Beginner’s Guide to Mastering Moho walks you step by step through how to design, rig, and animate using Moho’s professional tools and workflows. Whether you’re brand new to animation or a seasoned animator exploring Moho for the first time, you’ll gain real confidence as you master Moho’s core tools to create your own characters and bring them to life on screen.
You’ll learn by doing, following a guided project that takes you from your first design to a finished animated scene.
Written by McCoy Buck, creator of Moho’s official tutorials and a Moho instructor for over 12 years, and Chris Georgenes, a 25-year animation veteran with credits including Adult Swim, Nick Jr., and FX, this book delivers practical instruction, workflow tips, and professional insights to save you months of trial and error.
By the end, you won’t just understand Moho; you’ll have the foundation and essentials to bring your stories to life through animation.
