The artwork for the background alone was enough to make anyone want to learn flash/ digital design. The tips are very helpful Jazza and we all greatly appreciate them.
Jazza, I just want to thank you. For all of the tutorials, showcases, speed paintings and generally for your channel :) You helped me a lot, and you deserve more subscribers :)
IKR it takes so much computer than I can handle . I lack the skills to do anything I want and I'm sick of it I waste hours doing things that probably nobody cares and looks bad and I'm wasting my life
I made it all the way to the point he started adding buttons to each droplets. It is at that point it became unclear to me. I figured it out eventually though. You really have to do it and rewatch to understand this. Thanks for the tutorial Jazza, I'm learning alot~
Oh looks like a detective comic, not to be confused with DC -comics-, but Any-who this scene is very neat looking, and this is a really helpful tutorial.
I don't even animate, but I get so interested by your videos, and I think that you are very good if you can attract an audience who aren't as involved as most of your audience would be.
Just a tip for a quicker way to reverse them, just copy the frames, paste them in place and while they're selected right-click and select "Reverse Frames".
Hey Jazza, do you know how to link the cloak animation with his shadow ? By sharing your knowledge, I m having so much fun at beginning draw and 2d animation, thank's you so much !
Amazing to see how fast you can create rain by copy/pasting, without it being too obvious that this is what has been done. However a perfectionist will realize that this technique leads to some perspective errors. E.g. All the ring waves are the same size. To follow the rules of perspective, they should get smaller the further away from the viewer they are. I guess this could be fixed quite easily. Also at 18:07, after the droplets are scaled down to have the right size and density to be used in the background, the patch is stretched to fill in the background. This causes the droplets to fall a longer distance in the same time interval as it takes for those in the foreground, which means that they fall at a higher speed. In real life all the droplets would of cause fall at the same speed. Correcting this mistake can easily be done by copying the patch to fill it out instead of stretching it. It may seem logic to create the reflection in the puddle of water by mirroring part of the background as shown in this tutorial -however this technique is not technically correct. An example showing this, is the top of the window ledge that is seen in the reflection of this tutorial. A bit of reasoning will show that this cannot be the case in real life. Everything seen in a reflection must be formed by light waves send out from the object reflected. However there is no way a light wave from the top of the ledge can hit the puddle. To do this, it would have to go through the volume of the window ledge, which blocks it. Instead the underside of the window ledge would be seen in the puddle. Unfortunate in order to get a technically correct reflection, the background must be repainted from a different point of view, and then flipped upside down. The view point of the reflection must be place at an equally distance below the pavement as it is currently above the pavement for the perspective to be correct in the puddle. However these mistakes are rather small, so if only used in a short scene most people properly would not notice it -especially if they focus on the story being played out by the characters. You are allowed to cheat as long as nobody notices it!
+Jon Steensen I noticed that too but I guess that will make the tutorial even longer... Also, for experts, this tutorial is just a mind opener and for beginners, such a perspective error wont matter.
I love your videos. I think it's funny though how you totally steer clear of backgrounds! ;) That's like the one thing I've always wanted you to do. lol But I know you don't love doing them.
Also you could add more animation details to water in the reflection as I did at gg. gg/hamburgphoto [MAXIMUM SPAM]. Better watch in 100%, not in full screen. It's done with two mask layers copying a reflection, and a bit scaled in and out. Thus you can make various distortions of reflection and make it more realistic.
Saw Brotherhoodofbattle while was browsing all Jazza's videos. There was nobody. Wasn't surprising because first video on B.o.B. was released 5 years ago, but i still was sad that i don't have a chance to play. :(
Jazza, i think you are very good tutorial on this but i felt that i'm cheat on myself to animation which i should learn from you. some where i find hard to see your mouse had hove around the screen. good job,
Jazza pleeeeeaase can you make a downloadable zipfile of the version of flash your using and that i could be able to open the file and extract it on winrar and can you make it for windows xp or 7,please this will help me alot because i dont have any animation software or program.pleeeaaassee i would really apprecite it.
Hey I think it would be a cool idea if you had two camera angles during your tutorials and drawings. One on you like you already have and then the second camera facing the drawing and your hand movement.
Versatility for game design personally, also I haven't tried Toon Boom yet, but I like the idea of doing something in the future

You're really talented! You inspire me to get better. Thank you so much for making these tutorials!
Those were the days when Jazza used to do animation tutorials.
Yesss😶
when things go wayyyyy over your head but you still watch it till the end.
I have a more simple approach that still looks really good.

0:56 he starts the coat & hair
8:40 he starts the rain
28:50 he starts the reflection
35:25 he starts the fog

Very kind of you, thank you so much!

maybe noir
I just completed my first ever Flash project thanks to you! I wish there was something I could do, but I send you a million thank yous!!!
This is my favorite tutorial so far , although I am a huge fan of all the animation tutorials! Thanks Jazza!!!!!
This is very cool and it make me want to get back into Flash again. Nice work Jazza :-)
You are so talented and your tutorials are awesome! Never boring and very helpful. Thank you very much, keep up the good work!
I love how he says "figure" :3
KAT why
You sir, are a master of your craft. This is an incredible tutorial and was exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Lovely... this is like getting the best out of flash features.
I don't even animate, but I get so interested by your videos, and I think that you are very good if you can attract an audience who aren't as involved as most of your audience would be.
That fog is magic.

Great job, Jazza!!
This really helped
Amazing job! I really loved what you did there.
Awesome! So many great techniques!
absolutely amazing, love the accent too
He does it again, Great Job

amazing animation! so beautiful!
That was fantastic! What makes you prefer flash over toon boom?
Would love to see a lightening tutorial!
Love this one :)
No lightening, it is lightning
I love your videos. I think it's funny though how you totally steer clear of backgrounds! ;) That's like the one thing I've always wanted you to do. lol But I know you don't love doing them.
Bottom lane of the distant fog should be less sharp. Use gradient fill there next time.
Have you got any more games planned for the future? :)
This video was incredibly informative. Thank you so much!
Yeah bro you got the real skills.
Never mind that question. I just learned about Ortus. Looks cool ^^
Thank you Jazza, you're awesome!
What shortcut key did u use for changing the gradient from horizontal to vertical?
+Tahmida Islam Select the Gradient Transform tool (its hidden under the regular transform icon) or hit F to get the tool directly.

This makes me think of Hei from Darker than Black, and I'm not sure if there's something wrong with me....
But this looks amazing!
Hey Jazza...your tutorial is very amazing,I like it.Why don't you do the
other animation?
my gradient wont stay the same it will just go back to horizontal when i draw a new line help
Same problem... tell me when you find out xd
I created the rain horizontal converted it to a symbol, and then turned it to the angle I needed.
Thank ya jazza! Super great super helpful!
Me encanta tu trabajo.
Thanks, amazing tutorial and awesome animation once again!
Saw Brotherhoodofbattle while was browsing all Jazza's videos. There was nobody. Wasn't surprising because first video on B.o.B. was released 5 years ago, but i still was sad that i don't have a chance to play. :(
Thank you so much! please make more of these videos!
Like Background Ones Cause I Wanna Get Better At Making Them And I Learn From This Channel The Most
Great tutorial as always. :)
Awesome! Thank you Jazza!
Another awesome tut! Thank you ^^
Awesome techniques.
Wow, very cool. I was wondering if you could do rain in Flash, and I was needing it for an upcoming Halloween animation =)
Oh, i'll watch it right now. Thanks!
very cool! thanks
Jazza, i think you are very good tutorial on this but i felt that i'm cheat on myself to animation which i should learn from you. some where i find hard to see your mouse had hove around the screen. good job,
awesome...thanks for all tutorials
Amazing stuff man! Thanks!
looking forward to it.
you should allow video responses to post our attempt at this. and you can see if we learnt alot from this.
So are there any good apps for iPad Mini for animation or for art assistance? I only do things on paper because everything is so costly.
Yes! More animation
you forgot the man's shadow animation .. but really really great tutorial
How does one animate the color in effect that you have in the intro?
Nice job mate ;)
ooooooooooooh just in time dude !! thanx a million
Hey jazza... great you taught me some of the great things in animation, can you show us different types of 2d animation brother...
JAZZA can you update a video about how backgrounds?
What is the program you are using for making these animations jazza?
adobe flash cs6
Ok, ok, they are all my favorites :-) !!!
Can You Make Alot More Of These???????
thank you very much... helped me a lot...
How did you change the direction of the gradient? (horizontal to vertical gradient for the raindrops.)
+su sf Select the Gradient Transform tool (its hidden under the regular transform icon) or hit F to get the tool directly.
Jazza pleeeeeaase can you make a downloadable zipfile of the version of flash your using and that i could be able to open the file and extract it on winrar and can you make it for windows xp or 7,please this will help me alot because i dont have any animation software or program.pleeeaaassee i would really apprecite it.
Very .......... bravoooo !!
Amazing.
Awesome!
Wow I didn't know flash could look so real (not talking about the background)
great man!
can you please send me link where i can download it on pirate bay

Your really a 42 year old in a coma
+LarryxxFun Fishinabox you're*
Jumpie Produktions didn't*

KatsisVi DoesGaming nah they really didn't, but not that important though.
what is the animation program you use jazza?
Jazza,can u give the referencce link in flash 8 too? thx really appreciate it
Hey I think it would be a cool idea if you had two camera angles during your tutorials and drawings. One on you like you already have and then the second camera facing the drawing and your hand movement.
Whenever i go to download flash it comes up with Flash Professional CC, is this the one you use?
the bins on the bottom right looks a bit flat and out of proportion
Thanks!
Could you make a tutorial half human half animal it would really make my day i hope you can get round to doing this thank you.
Can you make a wolf animation please
awesome work but i believe his coat should have a shadow ...and waving of course. hope not overly critical
jazza u r bomb
thank you :)
Very inspired.:-)
I think it's better to do the rain with AS
You forgot to animate shadow from this dude) And also rainhits not in the perspective.
its not like i've not tried, and pirate bay does not work,and thats why i was asking jazza
I use photoshop
Dope
Hot Stuff!
That's a very advanced course
Do a speed painting of batman.
super) thank you)))
