Wishmee V1.0‎ > ‎

Anim Mode

Anim mode let you edit the current animation. Wishmee uses what is called “key-frame” animation to move objects. You specify the key poses of a wishmee at key times, remaining poses are interpolated from the key poses during playback. Usually, you animate the movement, turn, and zoom first, and then deform with the skeleton to get the right pose. This takes some practice, please don't worry if it is taking some time initially to grasp the concept - this is pretty much how animation is done in many movies and commercials. 

The interface color for Anim sub-modes is     . Double-tap toggles the interface in and out. Top left button lets you choose between different sub-modes. All buttons have an "i" help sub-button that provides information on what the button does. 



There are two anim sub-modes: WISH, and SKEL. 

  •  WISH  sub-mode is for animating movement, turn, and zoom of a wishmee

  •  SKEL  sub-mode is for animating the skeleton
