Cub Studio’s Secret After Effects Rigs & Rive’s Wild New Feature | Motion Mondays
Major new Features from Rive, Club Studios reveals trade secrets, Motion Studio gets a massive upgrade, and Flow wins the Oscar.
This week, Flow makes Academy Award history as the first indie animated film (Blender!) to win the Oscar, beating $200M blockbusters. We also look at how Cub Studio achieves their signature character animation using joysticks and sliders.
Mt. MoGraph's shows off their massive upgrade to Motion Studio, with over 100 professional tools for After Effects, while Rive introduces groundbreaking Data Binding for no-code expressions. Also, MoveAI showcases stadium-scale mocap, and former Mill artists band together after the studio's closure.
Plus, we explore Redshift toon presets, spotlight incredible work from Panoply and Dirty Puppet, check out a new precomp solution for After Effects, and get an inside look at running a motion design studio.
