Bring your Moho 3D set to life with motion and polish. In Chapter 4 we animate the lava with simple up/down keyframes and a Cycle (Absolute) loop for endless motion. Then we build big “inflate” bubbles in 3D, nest their motion inside a group for easy placement, and offset timing in the Sequencer. We add small bubbles/smoke via Moho particles or an After Effects image sequence for quick, flexible atmosphere.
Finally, we stage the shot with camera moves (Z-zoom + pans), fix depth/overlap issues (hills/mountains vs. lava), and tweak foreground obstructions so the action reads cleanly—wrapping up with export-ready results.
This course was originally on Udemy and is now archived on YouTube—one chapter drops here weekly. Want all chapters + original work files now? Check the link in the description.
What you’ll learn in this chapter
-Animate lava with Transform keys + Cycle (Absolute)
-Build 3D “inflate” bubbles, squash & stretch, and loop timing
-Use group nesting to reposition animated elements safely
-Offset animation with the Sequencer; vary speed for depth
-Import image sequences (smoke) and/or Moho particles
-Plan camera moves (zoom/follow) in a hybrid 2D/3D scene
-Solve depth pops: Z-ordering, background pushback, and masking tweaks
-Final scene cleanup and export prep
