Animating with Nero - Ep. 1 - Overview

I apologize about the my voice being quiet, it will be fixed in the next episode!
The first episode of my tutorial series, sorry for this one being not so much a tutorial. Next episode though!

[@Grompula]

ive been using flash for about three years and in my optinion, you can always learn from these tutorials, even if their basic. most animators develope handy tricks and its great when they share them. so, thx nero ;)

[@zoomi-]

I'm really looking forward to this! I've just found you like 3 days ago, but you're one of my inspirations for animating now, like mainly forming human-like bodies and poses.

[@NeroGeist]

Oh, wow, Poor judgement of sound on my part, I apologize and will fix this for future episodes! :P

[@SoshiUso]

I'm looking forward to this. Even though I'm not expecting to ever make animations, I do like your style. The overview is nice and a small overview at the start of each video to explain what you're going to cover. You may want to film these mini-overviews AFTER you make the video, so you know exactly what's going to be in it.

[@JenoDevo]

WOOP NEROGEIST IS AWESOME! I've been wanting a tutorial for months :3

[@Lost500Xanadu]

I love your animations, they're so good they give me chills!

[@dyproxus1806]

So that's how you made the Guardian series. Can't wait to try it!

[@RockStarT]

Awesome! I love you animations. I am beginner-flash-animator and I have a lot of questions. My question right now might be for an episode further in the future, but hey. I just would like to know how many layers you use for one character (average) and what are those layers (head, eyes, body...)?

[@MRInuzaki]

yay cant wait for more of these videos and Btw how long did it take to make your intro?? just wondering?

[@ReflxAnims]

YAY I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY

[@aricatnyan]

I just want to thank u so much for helping with flash! Im taking tech class and we are learning on flash but sadly he doesn't teach us anything like animating! Just how to use a tween to move a ball across the screen. V.V

[@bpruitt881]

Cool I'm going to get starded on animating and like all you videos keep up the good work

[@ignorethis7339]

Coooool i'm not that good at animations. Ur Awes-Mazing at it :D

[@Blumb]

Ahhg, I'm totally learning this stuff, I really wanna watch the series, but if you could please raise the volume, that'd be really helpful >.

[@SpiritofWolf01]

Oh this will be a good tool to help teach. thank you. Though can I suggest you only play the music when you aren't talking, it makes it harder to focus on what you're saying.

[@Dester999]

How can you redraw something [someone] with excatly perfect proportions? It was always a mystery to me.

[@Xxpussydestroyerxx12]

I can only hear a potato burning in a macadoni meatballs

[@EndCraftProduction]

Wooow genial ! :D Just low the volume of the music and up the volume of your voice please but it's perfect :3

[@mega17]

You know, I've seen dozens of animation-tutorials, and this doesn't feel any different. If I might suggest: I think you should make an animation for each part that you explain. I just think it would be a lot more engaging. If it seems like too much work, no worries. I already know how to use Flash (and After Effects, so I know it can be time-consuming. As for teach, plan out what you'll talk about, delving into random things before the viewers are ready often hurts more than helps.

[@lazypixel395]

Is there anything like the cintiq but at a lower price? 1,000 seems like a lot to use on a thing like this.

[@KieranD5896]

When is the next video from The Guardian Series coming out?

[@ventuswind2640]

i will be glad if you do more tutorials, but please next time show us more stuff for beginning, and i have just a one question what tablet you use because i have a bamboo but i feel like it's just a crap and can't draw any thing good with it and i drawing better in a paper

[@TheReMiXTheo]

He will probably post a video every second week or so. Let's simulate how hard it is to animate! First: Get some voice actors! What? You don't know how/where you get voice actors? Go to NewGrounds and find some! Second: Now you do animatics for the animation! This takes a while, but! You can have fun while doing it! (Not really...) Third: Lip sync! Everyone LOVES Lip Syncing! *whispering voice* I lied... Forth: Animate! use the animatic you did to animate smother! Now you are an animator! GL&HF

[@lazypixel395]

What computer/tablet do you use when animating?

[@ignorethis7339]

Bye the way I need ur help. Wut Program Do I use to make Animations. I really want to know so I could do some Animations as well. plz :I

[@Jime1214]

Nero, are you still working on the titan?

[@N1ito]

[@anotherfool9278]

[@SystemSearcher]

A suggestion: Make your voice a bit louder than the music.

[@darkjul8]

Use this as intro of every video with a cool song in it and at the end you speak in: NEROGEIST!!

[@mochiEleven]

Support nero mission is a go : watch every vid like every vid! Help nero grow :))

[@ArcadeLeague]

What's the song in the background?

[@1_____________________]

maybe put the background music in the background...?

[@tsukiahtamru1714]

Can someone link me to a download of the program?

[@TheReMiXTheo]

Probably he uses a Wacom Cintiq. I recommend you use a Wacom Bamboo if you just started but if you are experienced buy a Cintiq.

[@Kuzi19]

I wish I could draw like you...

[@tisineverfear1490]
