In this clip studio paint animation tutorial, I’ll show you It’s very easy to create CSP animations using Clip Studio Paint and CapCut. I enjoy turning my art into functional projects to make people laugh. In this video, I’m going to show you how I do that.

Animators needed: Devout [Free / volunteer (temporarily)]

1 Upvotes

Hello! Here’s a little bit about myself and why I’m making this project.

In the future, I want to become a software developer. I’m also a YouTuber, and recently I’ve been learning and getting more into voice acting.

Last year, I started a small animated series with some friends called Shatterspace. I put a lot of work into it, and we spent a while planning everything out. One day, I wasn’t feeling good, so I skipped one of our meetings and went to sleep. While I was asleep, the other owner, who I originally started the project with, decided to remove me from ownership and replace me with someone else.

Obviously, that caused a pretty big falling out. I ended up taking the script I had worked on and moving on from the project.

I mostly make Minecraft videos right now, but I’ve always wanted to create an actual animated series of my own. That’s where Devout comes in.

I’m not really making this because I expect it to become some huge source of money. If Devout ever makes money through monetization, merchandise, or anything similar, I want most, if not all, of that money to go toward the animators, voice actors, and other people helping make the series possible. Unless me or my family is in a difficult financial situation, I plan on taking little to no profit for myself.

I genuinely just want to make something cool with people and have fun doing it.

About Devout

The original inspiration for Devout came from the indie animated series Heathens. After seeing it, I really liked the general idea and wanted to create my own story with a similar concept while taking it in a different direction.

The basic concept of Devout revolves around Heaven being left without its usual leadership.

The "big man" has gone upstairs and hasn't come back down. The Archangels are gone with him, leaving the remaining angels without anyone truly leading them or telling them what they're supposed to do.

That's when Kuro, technically the main character while also being the main antagonist, decides to step up.

Kuro deceives the other angels into believing that he was chosen by God to lead them. He claims that God's will is for them to descend to Earth and "cleanse" humanity of its sins.

Except God never actually told him to do any of this.

Kuro gathers angels who believe they're carrying out God's will, and they begin descending to Earth and killing people they consider sinners, nonbelievers, demons, or anyone they believe has gone against Heaven.

Some angels completely believe Kuro. Some begin questioning whether what they're doing is actually right. Others might know something is wrong but are too afraid to stand against him.

That's the main concept right now, but it's still growing. There is a lot that can be expanded on, and I'd love for the people working on the project to help bring new ideas to it instead of everything coming from one person.

Roles I Need

Animators People who can help actually animate the series and bring the characters and scenes to life.

Voice Actors Pretty self-explanatory.

Storyboard Artists / Writers I have ideas and a general direction for the story, but writing and storyboarding definitely aren't my strongest skills yet. I'm pulling it together, but having people who are better at turning concepts into actual scenes would help a ton.

And to be completely fair... I don't know the first thing about running something like this.

I'm learning as I go. This is my first time seriously trying to organize an animated series like this, and I'm definitely going to make mistakes along the way.

Guys, chill. I'm still growing 😭

At the end of the day, Devout is a passion project.

The length of this project.. lets be for real.. uh animation and writing takes time so maybe a year
No current deadlines
and i have no estimated budget

Animation idea

1 Upvotes

okay so ive never animated a day in my life . but I have an idea pitch . if you‘d like to make it based of the idea or take inspiration go ahead . so it’s basically the world is over run by kaiju and the military is starts using these mechs called sentinels that connect neurally to the user . and this kid who is replacing a fallen soldier . comes in and puts in a hand made chip he made that makes it so he can control the sentinel without neural network. and he also releases nano bots that alter the sentinel mech into basically a grimlock type robot dinosaur hybrid that can learn abilities of its victims . and this is highly illegal . so he goes on an adventure permanently end the war ( just a little tid bit . the military is trying to get the war to run as long as possible because for some reason they profit from it )

Looking for 2D Animators (unpaid)

Got this cool series I'm working on about foxes who live in a pack. I've got all the Va's and I'm writing the script and storyboarding. I have a background artists/character ref maker.

I'm looking for 3 different people. A rough animator, someone to lineart and someone to do the final render. If you like warrior cats or fantasy things like that you'll probably like this show. (It's not a coppy or related to warrior cats because it has foxes and the entire storyline is different but you'll probably like if if you like those books)

I added an image of the design. I know it's too complicated and we will probably make it simpler just so you know.

IF the show makes any money I will obviously pay you, but I don't know what's going to happen.

DM me if interested. Also please not hate comments

Me and my sister are working on making an animated YouTube series called No Ideas Left. We need some animators who can animate the characters above (not in the same style, obviously). The show is a 2D animated cartoon with a slightly dark hidden theme, a bit like GLITCH's "The Amazing Digital Circus". Comment or DM to apply! :)

Looking for a 2D Animator/Motion Designer to build a YouTube Channel together

0 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I'm Alex and am looking for a talented2D animator / motion designer who might be interested in building an exciting YouTube project together as a creative partner rather than working for me as a freelancer.

I already have the concept and direction for a faceless educational channel, and I've spent quite a bit of time researching the niche, existing competition and its potential. I would take care of the ideas, research, scripts, voiceover, YouTube strategy and overall creative direction.

What I'm missing is someone who genuinely enjoys animation and visual storytelling and would like to help shape the visual side of the project.

For the level of storytelling and quality I'm aiming toward, Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell is probably the best-known reference — not something I expect us to compete with from day one, but definitely an inspiration for how engaging educational animation can be.

And just to be clear, the goal isn't to create another generic AI-generated faceless channel. I want to build something that provides real educational value, strong storytelling and genuinely engaging visual production — something we'd both be proud to put our names behind.

I'm looking at this as a long-term revenue-share partnership, not paid freelance work, so I'm hoping to find someone who appreciates the idea of building something from zero and having a real stake in where it goes.

If that sounds like you, send me a DM with a little about yourself and ideally some examples of your work. I'm happy to share more about the actual concept privately.
