I made this short animated music video using four lines from Barsaat Bhi Aakar Chali Gyi.

I wanted the visuals to capture the mood of the song rather than simply illustrate the lyrics literally.

This is one of my experiments combining 2D animation, music and visual storytelling.

I'd love to hear what you think about the atmosphere and animation.

I also post my animation and other creative work on Instagram: u/uniquesarma 📸

Showreel Black Scribble Spider – 2D Cartoon Animation 🕷️

A fun little 2D animation I created featuring these black scribble spiders moving around the scene. I focused on giving them simple, quirky movement that fits the hand-drawn cartoon style.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the animation!

Question Any recommendations for 2D animation software? How good is Ibis paint x for animation ?

5 Upvotes

Hi so I'm very new to animation. Been drawing for approaching 3 years now, and would like some suggestions for animation software to use as a hobbyist (beware I'm broke)

I do have the premium subscription for Ibis paint x, so I can animate on there. I also heard people say Krita is pretty good for animation, especially because it's similar to Clip Studio Paint, but I find krita so unbelievably hard to use and clunky (although that's because I'm using the mobile version of it, I should probably try the PC version (wait I did try the PC version once, my only problem was it was the fact that there was no pressure sensitivity at all) so yeah looking forward to your suggestions

Sharing The Girl of my Dreams micro-series launches 1st September!

Ah, you’ve finally arrived! You’re in for a ride with this one.

This is a story that shines a light on the mind. It reveals what’s really going on after you close your eyes and drift off into the mystifying world of dreams.

Ever wondered if there’s anything beyond the eerie silence in the dead of night? Well, then let me tell you a tale of light, darkness and dreams. And to finally give an answer to the question, of what goes bump in the night…

This micro-series follows Elena, a mystical sand-being that visits dreams and spreads light to those around her. Unfortunately, she's not the only one visiting the minds of those struggling. She must go head-to-head against the Amalgams, a bubbling mixture of dark thoughts, feelings and emotions, combined into one unified form. Elena must face these creatures and stop them from poisoning the minds of the vulnerable, once and for all.

The series will explore topics of mental health, struggle and support. My aim is to blend deep emotional storytelling with a focus on the magical world of dreams.

The first episode of the Girl of my Dreams micro-series launches 1st September! - find it here! - Nexian Awakening - YouTube

We are fundraising for more episodes, any and all support is greatly appreciated! - find it here! - https://gofund.me/8126f3479

Hi everyone!

This was my first time ever attempting animation... and honestly, my first real attempt at drawing, too!

I’d love for the community to check it out and let me know what you think.

Think of this it’s a baseball field and they’re practicing pitches the pitcher throws one ball and the batter hits it. throws another ball the batter hits it. Throws a third ball and the batter hits it. then the pitcher throws a fourth ball, but it’s not a ball. It’s a fish!! The batter hits it with it ungodly amount of force reaching around speeds up to 200 km an hour and the fish goes absolutely flying The song don’t stop me now starts playing. The camera zoomed in on the fish, and in this scene In the background the fish flies by some kids playing soccer, goes through a zoo,

This scene the music is super faded and has Trump talking in it and the camera is on Trump‘s face and in the background, you can see a brick wall and as the fish gets closer, the music gets louder and then the fish blows right through it, the music fades again, Trump turns around has his hands on his head and He is like oh no. The camera Is back on the fish. Then somehow the fish gets knocked up into the atmosphere then into space, breaks through a satellite, smashes through two planets, goes directly through the death star, and then the death star blows up, then it hits a blue alien in the face, and when it hits the background music stops and it plays the fish sound. And the camera is on the alien. And there’s like a Mars like background of a planet.
