Animation — Moho Pro
Moho Pro includes a hidden gem: Physics engine for bones. You can attach a "chain" of bones to a character’s hair or cape and enable physics. When the character stops moving, the hair will bounce and settle naturally without the animator having to touch it.
For background elements like trees blowing in the wind or dangling earrings, the physics engine automates secondary action, adding a layer of polish that would take hours to keyframe manually.
Moho Pro, developed by Lost Marble, is a professional 2D animation software specializing in vector-based rigging and bone animation. Unlike traditional frame-by-frame tools, Moho Pro leverages a sophisticated bone system, smart warping, and interpolation to create fluid, puppet-style animations efficiently. It is widely used for cut-out animation, motion graphics, and TV series production. Its primary competitors include Toon Boom Harmony, Adobe Animate, and CelAction2D. moho pro animation
Moho Pro’s backbone is its hierarchical bone rigging. Users can:
Moho Pro is not trying to beat Toon Boom Harmony at its own game; it is trying to change the rules. While Harmony is a monster truck built to withstand feature films, Moho Pro is a sports car built to get you to the finish line fast. Moho Pro includes a hidden gem: Physics engine for bones
With a one-time purchase price (usually around $399 USD) compared to the subscription models of Adobe and Toon Boom, Moho Pro offers incredible value. The learning curve for bone rigging is steep, but once you understand Smart Bones and Vitruvian bodies, you will wonder why other software makes animation so difficult.
If your goal is to tell stories quickly without sacrificing professional quality, Moho Pro is the tool you didn't know you were looking for. Rating: 4
