Meterial

Here I am going to show you a unique concept

For which you need to be a professional

You need “Unity” software

and professional training

You should be familiar with

“Bone Based Unity” then only you can do

this kind of animation

But I am not doing anything in this blog for professionals

Neither you nor I are professionals

So keeping the concept of unity, I developed

the simplest way

So that you can do it in PSP & Animation Shop

Open the old man in PSP

With Freehand Selection Tool, select right leg

Copy & paste as new image. Minimize it

Hit delete in your keyboard

You will get this. Copy & paste as new image

Call it O1

Minimize it

Hit undo twice, to return in original picture

With Freehand Selection Tool, select left leg

Copy & paste as new image. Minimize it

Hit delete in your keyboard

You will get this. Copy & paste as new image

Call it O2

Minimize it

Hit undo twice, to return in original picture

Now we have two legs

Two one leged old man & original old man

We can start now

Copy & paste original old man

IMPORTANT: Do not work on original picture

your animation will be jumpy

Copy & Paste O1 as new layer

It will fit above old man automatically

With 100% perfection

Copy & Paste right leg as new layer

With move tool place it in place

So that it will match with

Original picture of old man

If required zoom the whole picture

Close the old man layer by clicking on the eye

Stand on right leg layer

With Raster Deform move the right leg little upward

Merge these 2 layers (Merge Down)

Rename O1

Copy & Paste O2 as new layer

It will fit above old man automatically

Copy & Paste left leg as new layer

With move tool place it in place

Stand on left leg layer

With Raster Deform move the left leg little upward

Merge these 2 layers (Merge Down)

Rename O2

Now you have 3 layers

Old Man, O1 and O2

Close O2

Edit - Copy Merged

Paste above a JPEG picture, as new layer

Open O2, close O1

Edit - Copy Merged

Paste as new layer

Move a little below, with move tool

Do it as many time as required, alternately

I used a JPEG picture of Zebra Crossing

Keep the JPEG layer open

Open the layer one by one from bottom

Edit – Copy Merged

Paste in Animation Shop after current frame

Timing 40 to 50. I have given 50

Because the man is old, therefore slower

Save as GIF

If you do not know how to save

See my “Animation Tutorial”

At the left- bottom of index

First try it. If you are comfortable enough

Try the dog also

I hope your work will be like a professional

This way you can move different body parts

But we are not working in Unity

So you need right kind of picture

not just any picture
