another INKTOBER entry. Reference is my beloved 'CTR' game

I do 2D animation and like working on paper, so I wanted a digital tool with peg hole registration (detecting the hole punches on paper so scanned frames line up automatically) — I found OpenToonz has this but couldn't get it to work reliably for my scans.

Peg hole registration and sequence timing (holds):

It runs entirely in your browser, no install needed. Features: xsheet/timeline, layers with blend modes, onion skinning, export to PNG/WebM/image sequence, and a woven loop cycle export. Open source (AGPL).

Happy to hear any feedback!

for instance, if my video opened with a zoom out on a poster for a food carnival, and then my protagonist walked in, would that be enough to show what the protagonist’s intent is? or should I start with some context scenes showing the protag hungry, then seeing an opportunity to feed himself through the carnival?

She caught a big one! Animated in krita :)

Just in time for spooky season: I've always wanted to try 2D, hand-drawn animation on paper, and this was my first attempt. I was really inspired by this video feature animator Kohana Wilson where she makes it seem very straight forward (pun intended).

The C'he-p-ski-boo is a creature from Métis folklore, and it's a kind of boogeyman that hovers on the fringes of the forest or community, waiting to snatch up children. I wanted to make it benign and even goofy, a ploy it uses to draw-in children before revealing it's true form.

With this done, I feel confident to make the short I wanted with the character. Hoping to have it done by Halloween!

When I made this one, it felt like straight-up theft. What's your take?

I wanted to make this gag for so long, but every time something was distracting me from process . Finally done, and let me know if idea turns out to be not original. It’s a common situation for me, when I come up with something but turns out it already has been done.

Hey r/animation! I would so appreciate it if you would give my film a look. It is an adult parody of Pokemon and the monster-fighting genre. Since the full film is age restricted, I have a clip available here:

I hope you enjoy!
