    Best tips for animating and adding effects with capcut for hobby artists?

    I just want to make simple animated mvs or shitpost animatics casually, but all this editing software feels like it's making it a bit overcomplicated? Like I've been using ibis to animate and then experimented a bit with capcut, but I feel like it's still not really clicking how people use the latter to make a finished product.

    I've seen people use other programs like davinci resolve, alightmotion, and even using two programs like at the same time such as premiere pro and after effects (which i don't really get?? Why not use one program??) And they all look pretty complicated to utilize..

    I've also heard others put it all together adding one frame at a time instead of cutting up the exported animation video(which sounds like it could be helpful in some aspects but also DEFINITELY sounds super time consuming)

    I dunno, I just want to know how others edit and add effects using one simple software without overcomplicating things. Help?

    I'm a professional motion designer but I cannot figure out what software this was done in?!

    It's so cool and I want to have a crack at it... Is it frame by frame? Ms paint? Something bespoke? A plugin in AE? photoshop?

    I don't even know what the style name is

    Pilot Anxieties

    Hey friends!

    For my senior thesis (BA in "Media Studies") I'm animating the pilot of a mini series I've been working on.

    An ambitious project, given I kind of suck at drawing. I was wondering what resources/techniques you use to work through the work paralysis? I'm just so afraid of it sucking I'm procrastinating really valuable hours.

    I also recently discovered I love frame-by-frame, if anyone has any strong opinions on which frame rate flows best and how to go about timing that'd be super helpful :) I offer my backpack animation as sacrifice for a feel of my art style :)
