Raid is an easy to use animation software for generating an animation from a still image by performing image warping and deformation.
To create a warping animation for a character in real time, choose Movie mode and start recording the warping activities.
As the pre defined warping dots are moved, an animation is created. Pressing Space Bar any time during warping will restore the image to its original state. If there is a background music, the music will be recorded and included in the animation.
Use Distort Brush under Linear Mode to define a set of warping dots. Choose from a set of distort effects and adjust effect values. Once the effect is set, it applies to the warping dots automatically and then load an external music to be included in the animation.
Make sure the Loop option is selected if it is for SWF format or Synchronize AV Duration is selected if it is for Mov format.
