    About the SOFTWARE I use in the video:
    A huge amount of my production involves Adobe CC (my affiliate link tinyurl.com/v7fvqgo) I use Adobe photoshop, After Effects, Premiere, Audition and sometimes Animate. I would be nowhere without these softwares. You can get them all with a comfortable monthly subscription, or you can get subscriptions to individual plans. Check them out and see what works for you.
    The main software I'm using to actually animate frame by frame is called TVPaint. Here's more information on that: www.tvpaint.com/
    It's a great software :)
    And if you need a Graphics tablet, I highly recommend this one for you ballers out there: geni.us/vy8xUZB
    It's the best tablet money can buy :)
    And here's a great low-low cost alternative: geni.us/LLYv

    Hi ,
    Your design theme on How to Animate a Transformation is beautiful.
    But if the design was pencil and paper, it would be much better.
    Working with an electronic pen and a computer is good for one person. But it is much more difficult for the beginner, the children, and the students in one class. It needs a lot of money and space.
    It is much more practical if you are showing on paper and pencil. Thankful
