Animation be it traditional or digital and it's variants (2d, 3d, stop motion, clay, etc) cannot be complete without a background, which separates the props and the character.
Hi there, I will be sharing with you what consume my free time, if am not teaching in the classroom or attending to some clinical.
I know self learning is not easy especially on a new path but leaving the comfort zone makes us evaluate our worth in terms of progress and from few checks, Nairaland is not for artist even if there is a section, so I have join forces with other medium including YouTube for my new found zone and will be posting my work here.
The purpose of this post is to help me have it as my accountable partner, alright enough of the introduction.

Thanks for stopping by at my little humble beginnings.
Regarding background, your production style for animation is a derterminant along side your targetted audience say kids, youngs or adult as you can have a doodled or illustrated or painted or photobashed or cgi or modelled background.
I have heard about Moho as the most simplify and friendly 2d/2.5 animation software right from the days of Anime Studio Pro 9.
From my little experience, an illustrated style background is what you need for your Moho animation and then you arrange the file in the layer and play with your camera paning and depth of field effect.
I wish you good luck in your animation work.
