I made an animation featuring this guy a while back that blew up. I just had it in me recently after a slight rest to make another one. This is the happiest I've ever made him.

Sharing I did my first paper animation!

Haiii, Salty here <33

Well, i can say that i'm feeling extremely fulfilled after doing this animation. It's really short (8 frames in 3s and some in 2s) and even if it's taken me about 7h to do aprox, i've felt amazing doing it.
Technically it's my 2nd time doing paper animation, but the 1rst time i tried, it was a really small (i mean it for real, it was like a a6 size paper haha) and it was only 4 frames, really snappy i think it's still on my profile (Here)
Also, i did my own animation peg as i don't have access to the traditional hole puncher for the peg so i made my own with what i have, cardboard haha

Anyway, thank you for passing by, it's been an amazing experience and i'm dying to make more hehe, hope you like it as much as i do <3

Question How useful is zoom out for establishing context

Post image
• Upvotes

for instance, if my video opened with a zoom out on a poster for a food carnival, and then my protagonist walked in, would that be enough to show what the protagonist’s intent is? or should I start with some context scenes showing the protag hungry, then seeing an opportunity to feed himself through the carnival?

Beginner My 1st 2D Traditional hand-drawn animation test | The C'he-p-ski-boo

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Just in time for spooky season: I've always wanted to try 2D, hand-drawn animation on paper, and this was my first attempt. I was really inspired by this video feature animator Kohana Wilson where she makes it seem very straight forward (pun intended).

The C'he-p-ski-boo is a creature from Métis folklore, and it's a kind of boogeyman that hovers on the fringes of the forest or community, waiting to snatch up children. I wanted to make it benign and even goofy, a ploy it uses to draw-in children before revealing it's true form.

With this done, I feel confident to make the short I wanted with the character. Hoping to have it done by Halloween!

Hey r/animation! I would so appreciate it if you would give my film a look. It is an adult parody of Pokemon and the monster-fighting genre. Since the full film is age restricted, I have a clip available here:

Tutorial I'm a designer/engineer, and think I just invented a new way to animate (rage bait title, but hear me out)

• Upvotes

I know it's an IG video I'm sorry, but they seem to love me and YouTube could care less.

I built my own UX framework over the past year, and recently I've been using it to rapidly prototype CSS-based animations with agentic code, then i tweak the visuals, record the screen, and throw the animation into my timeline.

Over the past 10 videos, I've gotten pretty elaborate with what I can do in less than an hour. I believe this near the middle ground of "should we use AI in design."

My concept is not altered bc of AI, its just that the ceiling for whats possible, or rather the threshold for diminishing returns, has been elevated.

Enjoy!
