I think the most important thing to know when you start animation is JUST GET IT DONE. It doesn't HAVE to look perfect, just DO it!!! I seriously struggle with perfectionism in art. I envision what it COULD be and not what it SHOULD be. In addition, I want to animate things that are +30 seconds, and some even +2 minutes. Yeah, I've yet to finish a single animation... Still trying to actually follow this tip I mentioned at the beginning of my comment.

[@Northflowo]

yeah pretty much i also see a lot of people stall on making something they want to make, because they're "not good enough yet". but the thing is that when you try making something you want to be able to make, that is precisely how you get better at doing that thing

[@-faramoluwanbi-6469]

This is exactly me. I can't even animate a bouncy ball yet my imagination is running wild and I want to make so many things yet I haven't even developed the skills at all.

[@Chai-the-Artist]

I have the opposite problem. I rush and make it look bad, in favor of getting it done...

[@koi6140]

I started animating only recently. Tough It's quite an different experience when you try to learn 2D and 3D animation at the same time. Loving your progress! This is what brought me into reading Warrior Cats few years ago. + Inspires to create my own animations :D

It's amazing how much art and animation skills can improve in just few years. I started to animate around 2012 and i'm sad that i deleted most of my old animations from my old channel. It's fun to watch how much you can improve on art by looking at your old work.

[@Cornbread_]

I'm convinced every kid who started out drawing with Warrior Cats used the exact same style (1:23)

[@Cilvannau]

I started reading warrior cats when I had pretty good art style

[@_.skyyblue._]

I’m lucky I had an art style before I started warriors. But before I read warriors- Pretty much lmao

[@kureosk8]

yeah i was like 11 when i started but I only drew like 3 cats but they were pretty good

[@wisteriaclaw]

nah mine was a bit different, but probably because i only really drew on paper

[@kirisaurora5206]

I know other people have probably said it, but I need to say it. “I’m Still Here” is a perfect name for this map. Everything you said about why you animate I agree with completely. While I haven’t done any animations (yet) everything you said resonates with me about why I love to draw.

[@zabparadox9708]

Never give up. Breathe life into your work. Create entire worlds. Show people the type of universe residing within your mind. It's the truest form of expression.

[@aidanly1756]

😢

[@whateay8894]

Never be afraid to fail, everything takes time & everyone has low points, but never give up. Your lowest point, your worst work, is not what defines your skill; your highest point does, and while at some point you can’t keep doing down, you can ALWAYS go up! So rise up, and fail time and time again, but never stop the climb! One day your dream, your goal, you’ll reach it up there! 😊

"You COULD animate at 60 fps and draw every cat hair individually" Frame interpolation go brr

[@Northflowo]

Frame interpolation is a perfect example of a computer not knowing what to do with the inbetweens :,D The inbetweens aren't always supposed to just mark the middle point between two frames, that usually just makes the movement look kind of unnatural. I would have loved to go into the inbetweening in this video but I think that maybe it would be better explained by someone who has studied this stuff

I haven’t really been following your channel a lot… heck this is the first vid I’ve seen, but I can confidently say just from this, you are an amazing person with amazing talents.

I’m starting to really enjoy your content you really inspire me to do my best on my work and unlike a lot of art video your content is actually really nice to watch I can also relate with the “bringing horrible monstrosity’s to the world” part bc I have made several children errr creatures that honestly are very cursed like pdoof :> anyway I just really wanted to say this bc I have been enjoying your content for awhile now :)

I remember finding your channel back in 2016 it’s been fun watching you grow, I myself dony animate but I’d love to try it someday just don’t have the best tools to do so especially not in digital art oof, even in this timeframe of watching your channel my art has changed a lot to, as for myself I’m happy with how far my art has gotten and finally in 2019 I got confidence to start showing my art online, now others can watch me grow and like my art too it’s been a blast so far!

Videos like this remind me of the time I charged up my old tablet from 2015, I used to animate on flipaclip and I made a character called spike who was a black wolf with green highlights on the ends of his hair, and I would do just random ‘edgy’ animations on him 😂. I still animate now on my iPad and I’m still using flipaclip, and I’m happy with how far I’ve come! And I find it so cool to see other people who feel the exact same way as I do when I look at my old art and animations 😭😂✌️

[@gato3766]

i like to see not all artists started better than me, i am practicing for years now and still don't see a sign of improvement, i wish i knew how to do it, but let's keep trying edit: i am more into tweening... even tho most people say it's not animation i like it a lot.

Since I was in elementary school I always wanted to do art and be good at it, I took around 5-6 years of art classes each of which I failed and that really demotivated me, but now almost a junior in Highschool I finally decided I’ll try to do art once more, I do enjoy it but like you said in the video it’s really hard to see improvement and I just feel like my drawing are the equivalent to a 6 year olds drawing, and I feel embarrassed and afraid to show people my work that I spend around 10-20 hours on because It looks sloppy. This is roadblock is really a hard one to get over, and It’s really detouring me from doing art even though I would like to do it so much, I’m just so unsure what to do.
