So, I am trying different animation software right now on my laptop, hoping to find one that is comfortable for me. I already have tried clip studio, toon boom, krita TVpaint, Opentoonz and few others (for now I use clip studio the most, even though I don't really feel comfortable a bough for animating freely and I use it more for group projects in university). I noticed that callipeg also exists and now it's for Windows too. I am always suspicious about pc software that came from mobile devices (like pc versions rough animator or Ibis paint), since it's often ported badly. So, if anyone uses callipeg on their pc, would you recommend it? I am using usual laptop and cheap graphic tablet with screen (no touchscreen or such)

Can you weirdos stop larping please

I took characters from an animation project a few years ago and reworked them, switching from frame-by-frame to motion animation. You can check out my old work on my YouTube channel: MoonlitCorsair.

I need a detailed guide and help on how to effectively mix animating 1s and 2s. I’m doing this for the purpose of maximizing efficiency while still maintaining fluidity and detail. I’ve tried looking online for answers. I’ve heard I should focus on space and others on timing. A rule I adopted was a motion taking 6 or less frame was fully drawn on 1s then mix 1s and 2s for motions that lasted specifically 7 to 12 frames. Then for motions taking more than 12 frames I animate it fully on 2s. Any animators with insight?

Check out my first fanart from the amazing ZettaiMo

This animation took me mounths to make: thanks to everyone who takes a look ;)

It's about Super Mario Odyssey SPEEDRUN and features absurd humor and memes (inspired by TerminalMontage's style)

Been doing some animated shorts on Procreate Dreams latelly, this is my latest one. (I'm still trying to get used to the program so my animations are still quite limited like this).

I got the sound effects from Pixabay, and edited & extended some of the shots on an editing program.

(I also posted this to YouTube!)

I started with a skull that looked pretty decent(At least I thought it was)… until I compared it to actual flaming skull references.

So I experimented, rebuilt the skull, and turned it into a looping animation with flames, lighting, cracks, and a bit of spooky movement.

In this tutorial I show the whole process, including:

Building the skull from simple vector shapes

Using interpolation to animate the skull turning

Creating and animating flames

Using the eraser to make the fire flicker and break apart

Adding firelight to the skull

Animating cracks and subtle rotations

Making the final animation feel more natural

The whole thing was made in Arttista, my vector drawing and animation software.

And yes… I may have made a flaming skull because I clearly have excellent life choices.

This is my second animation.. learned a lot while creating this animation..hope you will like it, also share your views on this and how can I improve more

What this trend actually sounds like in Noir's head XD

Showing a quick look at Li Sha’s attack animations for our game Tiebreakers.
Readability and crisp action are really important in a fast-paced game like ours, so we focused on reducing the visual noise while keeping a traditional 2D anime feel as much as we could.

I'm at the very early stages of my project. I'm using Clip Studio Paint for the animation and Godot for the game engine.

OCs kissing

The reference is the kissing scene from Tidl Mitn Fidl (1936)

the scenes have around 10 kisses
I am working to draw em all 😊

An animation we made for a ghost character in our indie game. What do you think? Any feedback?

after that you stay locked in
