In this video I take a look around the Colour Model feature in OpenToonz. Showing how you set it up, the different ways you can load up a model and how you use it to colour your animations quickly.
00:56 What is a color model and using the OT palette
03:06 Showing the color model
04:44 Loading into the color model options
06:42 Adjusting the image in the color model panel
07:11 Seeing and deleting unused colours
08:33 Using the loaded model
09:15 Using the 1st frame as a color model
09:59 Loading an animation level into the color model
12:17 Conclusion
Next week I'll be looking at colouring multiple frames at once, to increase your productivity with an animation.
