This video is almost 10 years old, and I know people will come here when trying to learn how to animate. Animating isn't an easy thing. It takes a whole lot of patience and practice. No one was perfecr overnight. So never give up.

After a solid 45 minutes of pausing and correcting, I FINALLY ANIMATED something 2D!!! Thank you so much!

[@Shutup_ahir]

😂😂😂

[@BasicTutorial]

if the stick isn't moving you can add multiple frames with selecting the keyframe and pressing F5 so you don't have to redraw it every frame.

P.S. Your tutorial has been the most helpful. I'm more amazed at how your hand is freally used to drawing the stick figures flawlessly!

I am just new to Flash. And this was a precious treatment to me. Thank you.

[@MadnessDays]

Hehe, nice! I knew how to animate but my sticks were kinda... zombie looking... so I searched and found this video... The thing that you said that each stick has 10 body parts REALLY helped me understand the movements! Thanks man :)

[@SSMaker-fp3pb]

amazing !!!! :D

[@jacobmccloskey171]

so, this is what hasbro uses to animate? sounds kinda sketchy

[@SuperMetro]

Most cartoons are animated with flash these days.

How do you stop it from auto straightening the line you draw?

[@bristol8421]

He used the smoothening, just lowered it a bit

[@jacksoncampbell4291]

you might be using the pencil tool. he is using the brush tool

[@wolfygamerin3787]

Really good! King of Flash

[@MasterMega2011]

Too good to be your first tutorial =D

[@BasicTutorial]

you need to practice on drawing the stick... At the beginning I couldn't draw sticks well as you do now. But give it some times and make alot of tests and practising. You could also watch out for a tablet. type in google: bamboo tablet (i have one) but you can also animate great with a mouse, so you don't need a tablet. Just pracice :D

[@slgalaxy]

wow you really good at this! thank for teaching! :D

[@PiperWolfRose]

That is so awesome dude :D

[@pkphantom]

You probably missed a couple of the steps; draw the first stick, create the second layer, click that layer, select where in the timeline you want the animation to begin(he chose around 15 or 20), click your chosen layer again, activate the onion skin option, then bam you're animating. Use F7 to change from one completed frame to work on the next, and because of the onion option being activated, you'll get the afterimages to guide your work. It's all here man xD anyway, good luck man!

[@Slenderman755]

I exactly what you do and it does not work !!! the shadow of the figure above does not appear and the figure ( stickman ) appears not help me Please

you may save the seperate joins as a icon then next frame you put the limbs back in and rotate them a bit for the motion

[@p0tatoph0ne78]

Thank you lol for project

[@MizukiGalaxyGamesYay]

Wow... Amazing! I haven't got this program yet, but i'm doing tons and tons of research on animating programs, and Adobe Flash 8 Particularly, I heard its a good Animating program but everyones complaining about how confusing and hard it is D: Before i buy this program, i'd like to know a lot about it first, other wise i might end up like the other people that didn't research it before buying. Once you get to know it, on a scale of 1-10, how easy and good is it? And this is Adobe flash 8, right?
