Today, we’re excited to introduce Character Poses, a new feature of Morphic Studio designed to give you greater control over character generation, poses, and animation.

Character Poses automatically detect the kinematics of a character and apply a 2D rig, allowing you to adjust or create new poses effortlessly. Character Poses is designed to help you create multiple keyframes with a character by adjusting the kinematics of your character. This seamless control of Character Poses within your images enables you to work fluidly and creatively.

You can begin with a single frame and easily generate multiple keyframes. Adjust the pose in each keyframe with precision using the Character Poses feature, and then use Morphic’s interpolation feature to create smooth transitions between frames, resulting in a dynamic and fluid animation clip.

Character Poses in Action

Here is a quick walkthrough of implementing character poses in your workflow:

Upload your Image

Begin by uploading an image of your character and select the Pose Edit option on the prompt bar.

Character Pose Detection

The system will automatically detect and display the pose of the primary character.

Modify the Pose

Use the kinematics interface to adjust the character’s pose. You can tweak limb positions, alter body positions, mention pose changes in the prompt bar, and experiment with different stances to see what works best for your scene.

Regenerate the Image

Once you’re satisfied with the pose, regenerate the image. The system will apply the modifications while ensuring that the character model remains consistent.

Interpolate and Animate

With your newly generated keyframe, you can now interpolate and animate using both images.

This is just the beginning of how Morphic is making character animation easier, faster, and more intuitive than ever before. With Character Poses now live, we're excited to see how animators and creators bring their characters and stories to life. Try it out Character Poses now on Morphic Studio.

Introducing Style Models

In any well-crafted animation, film, or game, there is a visual harmony that guides the viewer from one scene to the next, creating a seamless experience. This visual harmony or style enables different parts of a story to connect and be a part of the whole. A consistent style helps

Introducing Layers

The process of animation is a complex one. Many elements, animated independently, have to come together to bring a scene to life. Every detail in the scene matters—individually and as a group. The freedom that allows animators to animate and make each element of a scene tell its own

How kinematics is changing the game in animation

In the world of animation, particularly in anime, character poses are a vital tool that animators use to bring characters to life. These poses are about more than just making a character stand or sit, they are about capturing the emotion, action, and personality of characters in every frame. But

What is in-betweening and how does it work?

In the world of animation, in-betweening is a crucial technique that helps bring characters and scenes to life. So what is in-betweening? In-betweening refers to the process of generating the intermediate frames between two key animation poses. But let's take a step back and to understand in-betweening, let&
