Moho Debut 13.5 | Create your own cartoons and animations in minutes | Software for PC and Mac OS

This animation software will get you up and running with animating perhaps faster than complex professional versions. It does have a learning curve but it isnt overwhelming. The instructions are very good and engaging enough to make it more fun and less tedious. The included samples and library are great and really assist in the learning process by providing key elements and examples. Great introductory software to creating little shorts. 4 solid stars.

There is a really steep learning curve with this software (even the basic version), but if you stick with it it is really good animation software. The pro version is more functional, but you actually get quite a lot in this basic version at a fraction of the cost. This is good software for a hobbyist or someone just dipping their toes into animation. My daughter has been doing stop-motion animation for years and wanted to try something new. She was initially frustrated that this software wasnt more intuitive, but shes getting it now. You can install it on up to 3 machines/devices (though you can only use it on one at a time) and I downloaded the install on 2 of my laptops. Works well on my windows computers.

If you dont have access to a dvd rom, you can download from their site and just input the serial number from the dvd. I have zero knowledge about animations, but in navigating inside the software, it feels very familiar to photoshop. On the left side of the software is a BEGINNERS MODE TOOL column. When you highlight a tool, there is an info box explaining what the tool does, as well as a video link you can click on for further demonstration. These video links take you to YT btw. Get used to the word BONE. In animation, you need to give your character bones in order for them to move. Each bone, whether it be arm, leg, hand, etc. has movements that you can define. I still know nothing, but I feel the software isnt all that intimidating if you spend a little time with it, as well as watching YT tutorials. And if you have photoshop or adobe illustrator experience, I think youll feel right at home. 5-Stars.

This is a fun system that allows you to learn the basics of animation. It does take some time to learn the program, but once you learn a technique, its easy to move to another. The software has a beginner mode that really does make it easy to learn. Once youve mastered that, you can delve into more in-depth animation. I was intrigued with the difference between this and the pro versions. Glad I opted for this one since I am such a novice. make sure you read through the tutorial as it offers so much information. The system is wonderful, allows you to learn by example, and gives back once you do.

Im technical, but have very no experience in animation software and was hoping to introduce my kids to digital art and animation. That said, this software will take some time to understand the process, learn and practice to get a functional animation.

The disc didnt come with all the files needed for installation. And the one you need, msvcr100.dll isnt even available anymore. You also cant return opened software, so its money down the drain.

Initial impressions- Initially, I opened the software in beginner mode and then needed to dive into tutorials. I thought that I would be able to pull up characters and get them to move quickly. However, I am now on my 15th video and have not yet created a character and can tell I will need to study and further educate myself on this software. I have learned about bones and manipulated an existing flytrap and was able to move its parts around but can tell that there is quite a bit I will need to learn and understand. A lot of patience will be needed. There is an incredible amount of potential and I look forward to further use. However, I would not expect to be able to create a character in five minutes unless you have existing experience. There are a lot controls to understand. I will continue to use this and update with time and use.

I have no artistic skills but I like the idea of animating things so wanted to give it a shot. While this software isnt simple (you have to draw, color, and animate), its not terribly difficult and a reasonably smart or dedicated person can use it. It comes with libraries already built in that you can tweak to get you started, as well as a 300+ page getting started booklet in PDF format. Im not expecting to make movies, but I love that I can do at least a little something.

I admit that I have not used any animation software before this one. I am a traditional artist who only uses a drawing pad for my PC when I’m in the mood the stray away from old school pencil and paper. Maybe it’s just me, but I found the learning curve a little steep and a little frustrating at times. The tutorials are a great help and there is a ton of help on the internet. After a few days of playing around with this version, I can see where this is good for a beginner. The tools and menus are easy to navigate once I got through a few tutorials. Overall, I like this but if I decide to go further into animation, I will definitely buy the pro version because of my art background. This nice thing is anything I do in this version can be imported into the pro version. Pros- Nice set of tools to use to get into animation. Layout is nice once I got used to it. The bone tool is fun. Cons- For me a little steep learning curve. Overall, I enjoy this software and I believe it’s at a good price for a beginner.

Fast delivery, great program and good price.
