You forgot not moving the main anchor node lol

That would be optional in dialogue parts tho but it is indeed a common mistake that newbies do.

[@thetablet6110]

Thanks! This felt like some animation tutorial (which it kinda was) and it helped me with my animation, Thanks man, and also, you just earned a new sub :D

[@CartoonyPirate]

Who uses tween frame button for the easy stuff. Ex: Just easing a punch. Or unless you can't do it, or you just want to. Btw, I am still in shadows. And I plan to never return

This actually helped realize a couple of things in my animations, but the worst part is that I’m about to do smth irl even though this video ESPECIALLY THE EASING PART, motivated me to use stick nodes so much, that I started crying and because of just HOW HELPFUL THIS VIDEO WAS 😭😭

Can you please send me the link for the music you used for this video, its really calming.

[@dude8130]

The way I make my figures walk is way less complicated but the results aren't so pro like. But then again it's just walking.

[@zeven8426]

Whats the music :3

[@BasidialAbyss3000]

heres another tip DONT USE TWEENING it is slopy and punishes you by ruiniing effects by adding the extra missing frames itll make blood and other effects flicker because they dont have one stickfigure moving the effect is made by getting one stick and adding frame deleting stick adding new stick adding frame. there for the tweening adds the ''missing frames'' aka adding extras when the stick isnt imagine you do what i said earlier on how to make the effect and add frames where the stick is deleted. lesson/tip over lmk if this helped

[@iamationz2667]

I remember when I used to make 4th wall animations with the default stick running into the animation corners lol

[@Phobos2864]

The best start to becoming a good animator is a walking animation. This is a written tutorial, so pay attention! 1. You'd want to have a stick figure that has a lot of movable joints. for example, it must have feet, ankles and knees. (Not the only needed joints) You can't properly animate with the default stickfigure because of the missing assets. The legs are simply only knees. 2. You want to have the previous frame as ghost so you can keep your feet right. 3. Pose your stick figure, you want it to have a wide stance ready for animation. Not too wide and not too flat. 3.1 Move your entire stickfigure's body parts. This includes: Legs, arms, and head. Now we're going to start to animate. Keep in mind. You need to have a ton of patience. If you don't have any. Try to build yourself patience. All good animators have patience. 4. Sync your hands with your legs. When the legs move, the arms move. This is a very very important step: 5. Your back arm syncs with your front leg, the one under the front arm. Your back leg syncs with your front arm. basically, F + B (Front plus back) B + F 6. You keep your back leg in one place. You look at the ghost and when the stickfigure moves, the leg and ankle remains in the same position that it was initially. Basically your body leaves and forgets your leg. The start of the animation, you lift your back leg up and then place it on the ground, then start. Your body moves leaving behind your poor back leg. Your ankles move forward but your feet are trying so hard to stay on contact with the floor. and then your feet give up and your ankle, after your back leg and front leg end up being near eachother, you want to zoom in so you don't get confused with which is which, this is the biggest mistake that i made. Basically, my stickman's front leg was hiding my back leg, which made me confused and made me reposition my back leg into my front leg and my front leg positioned into my back leg. like they switched places. Zoom in so you know which is which. alright, so. After your front leg finally reaches it's destination and your back leg is behind your body, You restart. Repeat. After your front leg makes it's step. You repeat. Don't forget to keep moving the body. The back leg is supposed to get abandoned into one place then start to reunite to it's family. Then the front leg starts being the one who is abandoned by your whole body. and the back leg is repeating the same process that the front leg had. And that's all. I hope you found my comment appealing to you and that you could understand. I tried my best. A more effective way to animate practically anything is to replicate real life. Walk across your rooms looking down at your hands and feet. You realise your back arm follows your front leg. and your front arm follows your back leg, They have the same movements. If you appear to have the arms not looking fluid when they are going back, contract them then move them back.

Thank you I do make all those mistakes 😂 I even stopped making because of that problem

[@lordofebony816]

Two mistakes I’ve noticed are bad grammar (seriously, everyone has this problem.) and only moving one node each frame. (This occurs in most beginner animations)

[@animationn9635]

The common mistake is people using _your_ instead of _you're._

might have to remind you about the "if you animate a lot stickfigures" one because mainly people just messed up the movements in a group so it looks "trashy"

I’m very “Mr.perfect” so for the walking thing, i Cant. Having partially floating frames makes me DIE, and plus i use “Tween (8)” because im not very advanced yet

[@RIPkat]

How Do u make the Stickman look like that?

[@KoSMIC_animations]

4:12 if somebody did that kick, they’d break their foot. It also looks very unrealistic, you clear don’t know anything about martial arts by the time you animated that

The "aesthetic" isn't an option, it's a clear mistake that everyone should fix Per example; some guy makes the most FLAWLESS and realistic (in movement wise)-good animated animation ever, but looks like absolute trash (in visuals and aesthetic) making it that so nobody likes it

Yo bro what is the stickfigure you used on animating called? İ want a stickfigure that can get long like rubber.

[@J_Velocity_G]

This helped alot since i really had no patience and there isnt any flow in my animations and it looks very fast, i put patience and faith into it and now it looks like its alive!

[@pyrotechnicwizard7503]

Example of flow: Make a character high kick Then make that high kick turn into running Tan that running, make the character land a strong punch or something.

[@michaelwentoo7055]

Mm i am beginner so i wanna ask wht the tween use for

[@fredericoderren6526]

Im not a profesional animator in sticknodes but i can answer your question its to make your animations smooth its how it works is an ai looking at the key frames to make somting that can conect it together that if you use it manualy but if you use tween normal (just the same button but auto does it for you) it will tween it self with out presing the button alot of times hope this comment helps you to animate

Song name?

[@jocytaguic4562]

I think easing is not for me bcuz i dont know how to ease :(

[@unknown_lazer]

More common mistakes 1. Overusing tweened frame and pretty much animating in tween itself (if people get pissed off me because i said it, tween is pretty much your comfort zone but if you go out and watch tutorials and basically follow them you'll be surprised) 2. Lacking flow is not that common, but for newbies... it is flow is how you make the movements fluid and satisfying, also it decreases the grumpy look in an animation. The video pretty much also sums it up so i can't think of anything now lmao

And get this, I didn't copy it cuz it was just a ball moving. And my animation looked surprisingly good, And that was when i was freaking TIRED! Next thing you know. I'm refreshed and then try to animate again and my animation looks like garbage.
