I am a newbie one, I thought that being an animator would just a childhood dream to me, but thanks to your videos. I am going to colorize that dream now.
No stone left unturned in this complete package of a video 🧐 Thanks for generously sharing your entire process, from animating to even digital painting and ideas for film editing 🤯
Your teaching style and art style both are amazing i really loved how you teach every single thing about lighting , software , blending , colouring in depth . As a beginner this is gold to me i learned a lot and every single min of this video was worth to watch
Hi! You're very welcome! And thank you for the kind words. 🙏Even with the long length of about 2 hours, you still found it worth watching. This encourages us to make more videos like this. 😄I hope the concepts taught here will guide you on your journey to becoming an animator. 🙌You can do it!
I love your contents, my teachers don't explain me this!!!! you do it for free... I'm a beginner and I saw it just because I's my job dream. it's very important for me.Thank You so much!!!❤❤
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the efforts you genuinely did to teach people. If someone really wants to become good at it then this video really gonna help it. You are a hard-working and nice guy, no doubt in it.
Hi! 👋 Happy to read your comment. Yes, we really put a lot of effort to teach what we know. Glad that someone was able to notice the effort that we put in. 🙏
Hi! Accidentally stumbled upon your channel. You are an interesting animator. I myself have been working in animation for over 22 years. Started as a classic pencil animator frame by frame. But then Flash learned and now I prefer puppet flash animation. Sometimes I combine with frame-by-frame animation.
❤❤Sir please tell me that can't i do colouring with Adobe animate and then use after effects for glow and highlights with out using Photoshop.....what can be the alternative option instead of Photoshop????
Love this tutorial! Been looking for something like this for ages. Do you think animating in photoshop would be sufficient for like rough animation? Not necessarily making it a super smooth product like in your very well done version. But just to simply show movement. Sketching out an animation. “Keyframe” it and then go back and colour in/turn it more into a painting? If that at all makes sense? For anyone who isn’t used to Adobe Animate.
Hi! Yes, photoshop would be sufficient. It's just my personal preference not to use it for rough animation. I just don't like how photoshop handles the onion skinning. It's much more intuitive and light weight in Adobe Animate. It's also very easy to adjust the onion skin in Animate. And onion skin is important when doing the rough animation. But yes, it is also possible to do everything entirely in Photoshop 😊
That is another way to animate in Photoshop but I'm not a fan of it. You can't set how long is a frame exposed for, like let's say you switch from on 2s to on 1s and then pause for 1 sec. It's hard to do that on just video layers alone, which is the appeal of video groups (the method I'm using) because you can clearly see the drawings and how long each is being exposed. Hope that helps.
It depends on the situation. I usually prefer just having 1 layer for everything but if the timing is different let’s say the body stopped moving but the arms have to continue then I separate them. And that is also true for action scenes, camera movement etc.
so u draw the animation in AN first n the you tracing back in PS to add color n texture? is that correct? in PS u import every image of drawing in AN or how? can u xplain more?? i already watch your tutorial but still not undestand
No I have not. But it's in one of our softwares to try list. Although, what you mean by save a lot of time in animating characters is most likely to refer to rigging, which we do in after effects. The frame by frame process is roughly the same across different softwares. This one is done frame by frame. You can save time by rigging, but that would totally give a different feel. It's not a better feel, just different. It really depends on what kind of look you're going for. This animation took about 10 - 12 hours to complete from start to finish.
Hi! I have a question. Trying this workflow and Im confused by when you are coloring her in what you are doing when you are putting those breaks in the timeline on each layer and how that allows what your painting to move with the animation. When Im painting it stays and the animation moves away from what I painted. Any help i'd appreciate
Yes you can do the same process with procreate. The way you do it may be different. Like the UI is very different, and how you add a blank keyframe is also very different in procreate but the overall concept of this can be applied in any software 😊
Hi! Yes you can do the coloring properly in adobe animate but you won't be able to achieve this "painted" style look. It is so much better and so much fun in photoshop than in animate. If the style is just a solid color, then I will do the coloring in animate but if the style is more textured and has that painted look, then I'll finish it in photoshop 😊

You can animate without drawing using rigging, but it's hard to be good in character animation without drawing fundamentals. 😊 I recommend you not to skip it. 😊 But to answer your question, yes it's possible to animate a character without drawing (provided the design is drawn/illustrated by someone else). But if you were to animate solo, you really need to draw or illustrate.

in ps you can add new blank video layer, so you don't need split normal layer
That is another way to animate in Photoshop but I'm not a fan of it. You can't set how long is a frame exposed for, like let's say you switch from on 2s to on 1s and then pause for 1 sec.

@@plainlysimple that's right, that's the weakness of that method, by the way thanks for the tutorial, very helpful
Thanks and you're welcome. Glad you liked it. 😊
Love this ! Nice job guys
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! 😄
You draw hands and arms on different layers but does the same apply to action scenes, camera /character rotation and other overlapping effects?
It depends on the situation. I usually prefer just having 1 layer for everything but if the timing is different let’s say the body stopped moving but the arms have to continue then I separate them. And that is also true for action scenes, camera movement etc.

Megg Griffin?
I drawing not good so can I make this like you?
Drawing is an important skill in frame by frame animation. If you're not good at drawing then it would really help to practice. 😊
How much time does it actually took
Around 1-2 days I think? 🤔
I want to ask?
