It's my first time creating a combat animation for a pixel game. Where can I find best source of reference for fighting using fist or weapons? Is there a specific website?
Can anyone tell me which tools are used to create the animations in the youtube videos of Arvin Ash channel. I am about to start learning animations and want to learn upto that level.
Sooo I joined this sub because I've been wanting to start animation, ofc. I'd like to ask if there are certain physical materials that I might need the most to help me the most with animation? It's my birthday soon so I wanna get as much stuff as I can to help me with animating. Thanks! :>
instadoodle.com blew me away with how simple and powerful it is. In the past, I spent hours struggling with complex software to make explainer videos and eye-catching animations for my brand.
Last week, I needed a quick, professional-looking whiteboard video. I tried a few different tools but then thought, "Why not give Instadoodle a shot?" Three clicks later, I had exactly what I needed!
All I had to do was pick a style, add my content, and let Instadoodle do the rest. No technical know-how, no long tutorials – just instant results that look amazing.
If you're looking for a way to create stunning animations without the hassle, I highly recommend trying Instadoodle. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions or tips about using it.
Happy animating with Instadoodle
Hi Reddit,
I’m working on a short animation video, roughly 3–5 minutes long. This is my first time using animation software, and I’m not very tech-savvy. Does anyone know if there’s a way to embed Eleven Labs into Powtoon for free? I’m feeling lost so that any advice would be greatly appreciated!
When a character move forward but view in sideway and the scene is moving? As seen in Japanese anime shows.
So I recently ordered a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022 Model) off Back Market and an official Samsung S-Pen off Amazon. Those two items are going to arrive soon so I did my research on what animation app is best for me but I want one similar to Flipnote Studio 3D for the Nintendo 3DS so which one is recommended off these two Rough Animator or Animation Desk? I like Minimalism: the ability to simplify without losing any quality so I do Simple Drawing to animate.
I have recently started trying to teach myself how to animate and use Toon Boom at the same time.
I'm excited to dive into the arduous task.
I thought I'd share some basic stuff I've done as I am learning.
Here is a ghost named Blinky (no relation to the fella from Pac-Man).
I'm hoping I can start to post more technical stuff as I continue learning.
But I wanted to share this as it is the first thing I have made or animated and thats pretty exciting for me. Even if it is just a simple blink. It helped me learn stuff about timing and frames. Thanks for taking a look!
Still rough but what can I improve first?
TLDR at the end. I’ve been learning traditional 2d animation for awhile now and have been getting my work critiqued from an awesome animator and the feedback is consistently that I need to better draw the characters on model.
I have been practicing and working hard and I am improving. This last critique he told me that I was “very very close” but didn’t quite have it. But this is the slowest progression I’ve seen when it comes to my art. I know it takes patience but I’m seeing faster improvement in other areas, and am disappointed that it’s taking me so long to get better at drawing on model.
Are there exercises I can do to make this progress go faster? Should I be focusing on anatomy studies? Or construction studies? I’m not afraid to put in the work to improve, but I just feel like I could be more efficient with my practice but don’t know how.
TLDR: I want to see more/faster progress in my ability to draw on model. What exercises I should focus on to make my practice more efficient for that purpose?
I’m normally really good with walk cycles but for some reason I just can’t get this one to look right. It looks kinda wonky to me but I can’t quite put my finger on what it is. Does anyone know what I could do to improve this?
