Perspective change on an entity (fake 3d)

XopherJ

Hello all,

Apologies for what is likely a very newbie question, but I can't seem to find the information no matter where or how I search.

I'm looking for a tutorial that points in the right direction on how to fake 3d perspective changes on a character or entity. I'm basically just looking for something similar to what's going on in this gif:

and while I find examples (like where this came from), I'm not finding any good "how-to" info.

Thanks for any help or pointing me in the right direction.

Hello, welcome to spine forum!

Fake 3D animation is also called "2.5D", and you can find some recordings that our master animator Erika demonstrated rigging 2.5D character on Twitch streaming here:

Perhaps the boat rig in "Fishing in 2.5D - Animation in Spine" is the easiest to understand:
Spine: Twitch: video vIHS comkvo

You can download actual Spine projects from the "Download files" button, so I think you will find them helpful.
