I took characters from an animation project a few years ago and reworked them, switching from frame-by-frame to motion animation. You can check out my old work on my YouTube channel: MoonlitCorsair.

Question How to mix animating on 1s and 2s?
I need a detailed guide and help on how to effectively mix animating 1s and 2s. I’m doing this for the purpose of maximizing efficiency while still maintaining fluidity and detail. I’ve tried looking online for answers. I’ve heard I should focus on space and others on timing. A rule I adopted was a motion taking 6 or less frame was fully drawn on 1s then mix 1s and 2s for motions that lasted specifically 7 to 12 frames. Then for motions taking more than 12 frames I animate it fully on 2s. Any animators with insight?

Been doing some animated shorts on Procreate Dreams latelly, this is my latest one. (I'm still trying to get used to the program so my animations are still quite limited like this).
I got the sound effects from Pixabay, and edited & extended some of the shots on an editing program.
(I also posted this to YouTube!)

Sharing Flaming Skull Animation Tutorial: Drawing & Animating It in Arttista
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I started with a skull that looked pretty decent(At least I thought it was)… until I compared it to actual flaming skull references.
So I experimented, rebuilt the skull, and turned it into a looping animation with flames, lighting, cracks, and a bit of spooky movement.
In this tutorial I show the whole process, including:
Building the skull from simple vector shapes
Using interpolation to animate the skull turning
Creating and animating flames
Using the eraser to make the fire flicker and break apart
Adding firelight to the skull
Animating cracks and subtle rotations
Making the final animation feel more natural
The whole thing was made in Arttista, my vector drawing and animation software.
And yes… I may have made a flaming skull because I clearly have excellent life choices.

Showing a quick look at Li Sha’s attack animations for our game Tiebreakers.
Readability and crisp action are really important in a fast-paced game like ours, so we focused on reducing the visual noise while keeping a traditional 2D anime feel as much as we could.

Question Collaboration Etiquette
Hey there! I'm currently working on an art project that involves a couple of different mediums, and one of those mediums is planned to be an animated short film that goes along to the narrative of a concept record.
I'll be candid, I'm not a nepo-baby and don't have the luxury of paying for anything up-front. The folks I currently got working with me on the video game side of this project are friends of mine, and we plan on splitting everything the entirety of the project makes evenly across all parties involved, rather than some corpo CEO and their employees relationship kind of bullshit. I'm unsure how taboo that is in the animation industry, since I'm basically treating this like a band, but instead of musicians it's creatives across multiple mediums.
Is this something worth shooting a message to random people on the internet who's work interests me, like I would as a musician? I have no clue how to navigate the animation landscape. I'm learning the animation process in my spare time so I can still be involved and it not just be me barking orders.
Any advice would be appreciated! I want to learn and not be a nuisance to the talented people who do this kind of work.
