wish I had you as a teacher...I can't even start a head turn animation without thirty people over my shoulder showing me every step....

It's been 7 years, how's ur progress?

[@crystalkita]

@@ronin-ee1gh i gave up.

[@jervinmarco6891]

@@crystalkita get back on it.

[@crystalkita]

@@jervinmarco6891 no. I gave up long ago bud. Some people are just good at animation. Others like me, we will never succeed. After $2000 worth of classes, getting ridiculed for not learning like everyone else by my teachers. Getting told I would never get anywhere with it by those same teachers,. and repeatedly being told just to give up by others, I did. Sorry, but animation and me are done. No point in trying at something others are already good at anyway.

[@jervinmarco6891]

@@crystalkita I gave up twice brother just so you know. It was hard I wasn't born an animator but I really wanted it, blood sweat and tears ..and now I've been an animator for 15 years, directed some tv series most notably George of the Jungle.

I like the energy of it, but what I would fix is the arc of the jump/spacing. he seems to stop too much at the top before he lands again. very nice flow to your sketching though. love it :D

[@fernandovillegas9425]

How do you do the final step to make the cartoon move , what application or app is use to make the movie, all the movements at the end?

[@alfredoschmalbach7390]

good video

[@user-rp9bv8ew1n]

Which one do you use in one scene? About frame ?

[@narutoraprendiendoarte7769]

Can you tell me the name of the table you use to animate? And the drawing papers? I'm looking for it like crazy on the internet but I can not find it

[@madjidchouarbi3921]

Narutor Aprendiendo Arte if you want to animate on paper, don't buy an animation table which is really espensive. Buy a simple light box, and you can buy too, for about 4 £ at Chromacolour.com, a peg bar you can use with a regular office 2 holes punch. If you prefer animating on larger sheet try a plastic peg bar for pro and use A3 paper, but you'll need to buy a pro punch hole for animation.

[@Leon-qh9br]

hey how are you scanning your stuff in

[@crowmaster9652]

9 years later* I would suggest making the arms slightly heavier and less extreme to balance view onto the rest of the character rather than his arms and the jump.

[@josephf.2787]

But the whole idea was to impress us by the jump animation, you can really see that was a simple sketch for that purpose.

[@crowmaster9652]

@@josephf.2787 if the idea is not good enough it can be improved

[@wilwad]

Will the paper be recycled ?

[@among_clip758]

[@hahamoved6820]
