I think its good the way it is😊

You have better editing than other more popular youtubers.

[@BaMAnimation]

thank you. that honestly means a lot

[@okietokki]

BaM Animation Its because its true! It really shows that you put effort into your videos It's really great and helpful

[@grahamstation7640]

Honestly I don't remember the last time I seen a KZbin actually try or even add color

Yes, tbh. But no better nor even close to 8-BitRyan'a editing

As someone who's always been kind of scared of puppet animation, I love how these videos inadvertently showed me how much of it is just moving things slightly frame-by-frame and not always tweening. It's kind of like this beautiful hybrid of all three "main" techniques: hand-drawn, computer and stop-motion.

[@AnimationVault]

Nice! I like the season arc you started - I can't wait till episode 10 when Brent snaps.

You guys are FANTASTIC !! I am an animator, illustrator and character designer, who also teaches animation foundation at a CT community college. I use your tutorial to help my students understand how to start to animate walk cycles, and then give them their own sense of timing and character...THANKS SO VERY MUCH GUYS !!

[@LieLikesMusic]

The problem with this video is that the whole animation and creative process is so sped up... There's no way i can learn or follow this. Good overview though.

I’m glad u said this bc i was feeling real dumb for a sec there .-.

My god, I wish I'd watched your content at the start of this project I'm on. This is amazing advice- you guys always know to mention the little things like the tools you use and the meanings of words. Best tutorials.

I’m taking animation classes, and this helped me create an animation to show other people in my class. Thanks!

This is some of the highest quality instructional content of any topic I’ve ever looked into on KZbin. Great job!

[@NathanTarantlawriter]

Great video. Not a photoshop animator (I use Gimp, Cartoon Animator and AE) but the key parts are clearly shown and easily transferable to any other drawing product or technique. Thanks a bunch!

Omg this hurt my head just remembering all the things I had to learn in my animation classes ahaha good job on condensing all that info xD Thank you guys for that A.S.S. shout out! It was fun having you on!
