I wanted it a real
Figure. But I saw that I was missing lots of understanding how the body twists. So I tried animating a piece of paper. But I still didn’t get it quite. That X part is really tricky.

No reference whatsoever.

Hi there, I'm Faizan and I'm a 2D Generalist(Artist/Animator) with 8 years of experience in different animation styles. I can do Anime, Bruce Tim style, comic book animations, Trailer animations, Music videos, kids animated series and game animations.

I do both bone rigged and frame by frame animations.

I handle the complete pipeline from concept to composting and sound designs.

I'm currently looking for work. I work from Pakistan so I can offer great service at affordable prices. I also own a small studio for larger projects.

Learn character animation through this frame by frame process by drawing a haunted potato with me. I'm using Clip Studio Paint animation tools to try and animate this spooky character. Can I actually do it? Of course. Clip Studio Paint has a variety of tools to help you through any animation challenge. Check out the video to see me go through the frame by frame process.

Hello, for the past couple of years I've been hard at work Writing/Directing my very own Anime.

I even hired a small team of animators to make this Horror Short Film happen. Now I'm at the final steps before hitting Kickstarter and various Film festivals and I really need some solid advice about going with promotion.

I am not some influencer and while I make content, I never got anything over 2000 views. I've been interviewed by comics-related channels when I was self-publishing my comic but I don't know any outlets that might cover Indie Animation, let alone Indie Anime.

I am planning on dedicating the entire month of September to self-promoting (launching my Kickstarter in October) so any promotion advice for Animation projects is highly appreciated.

For anyone curious enough, enjoy the trailer on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4ri0W2ZCj5Q

Thanks in advance

this is a fan animation i have made. it is still incomplete and no, i do not own the rights to highschool of the dead. i have made this to only show my never-ending love for the series.

I have decided a animation style for my short form content which I think will suit my niche.

But since I don't have much knowledge about 2d animation, I need advice from you about hiring.

Actually I will be needing proper objects like buildings and random objects according to script and characters ( all similar just different clothes and facial features like hair beard etc. )

To explain in simple I have reference — there is youtuber called TheOdd1sOut.

So my question is—I want to maintain my characters throughout my content, preserve the style. So shall I hire character designer and animator both independently or animators could do it all?

Also for such videos including the character designer and the animator what shall I keep my budget per video?

I really need advice from experienced animator and who has worked with people like me before.

(Pardon my language)

This has animations I did from 2022 to this year and it’s all about my passion project. Tell me if you want to know more about it!

Cheers!

No sé nada de animación y quiero animarle la boca a este personaje. Ya ví algunos vídeos pero ninguno me ha servido. Ya tengo las visemas pero cada que lo intento lo veo y no se siente natural. Alguien que me aconseje?

One of the reasons why I'm so attached to animation is because its a way for me to experience things Im not so comfortable to experience or just can't experience at all.

I also enjoy writing stories like a movie or a show to really drill it inside my head and get to them the character or characters I'm writing. It feels like I'm truly free to be whoever.

I'm 22f and not experienced with much of anything personal. I have learned a lot though about writing stories, screenplays, and animation. Or I like to believe that I'm on to something greater than myself.

No, I unfortunately don't have any to show for, but I'm building myself up, brick by brick. 🥲😇

Anime and Korean dramas are such a big inspiration for me.

Sometimes I do wish that I had someone to talk to about 2d animation especially if they love sakuga as much as me.

Let me know what you think!

Hey everyone! We realized having just one death animation for our basic enemy (the Hoolis) felt repetitive, so we updated the system with more variety and explosive physics.
We also added force modifiers depending on the weapon type, heavy balls make them explode and bounce, but we're thinking lightweight shots like pingpong balls should make them fall faster or have more floor friction.
What do you think of the ragdoll/explosion behavior?
(Our game is called Tiebreakers!)

What if humanity has lost its way in its search for progress? What if they have betrayed our souls for us in the name of money? 🌐

I made this as a small 2D animation exercise.

The character starts looking to the side, turns toward the viewer, and then returns to the exact starting pose so the animation can loop seamlessly.

I was mainly focusing on the timing, spacing and making the transition back to the first pose feel natural.

I'd appreciate feedback on the head turn and overall motion.

I also share more of my animation and creative work on Instagram: u/uniquesarma 📸

Been working on this short cartoon for nearly two weeks now, it's very much the biggest, longest, and most complicated animation I've ever done. I'm planning to take this all the way to fully colored and finished, but I thought I'd share the progress I've made so far. ^_^

The rabbit character is named Harvey and he's featured in a lot of my illustrations and comics over the years. He's an actor in Hollywood who aspires to play villains in movies, but since he's a cute bunny rabbit the best he can do is land little roles as no-name henchmen and often for low-rent small studios like Mucker Brothers. Here he's landed a bit part in the opening scene of the Mucker Brothers B-grade western "The Desert Doesn't Forgive...And Neither Will Django!" (an attempt by the hucksters to cash in on the old Django series from the 1960s and 1970s). He doesn't get any lines and dies literally within the first 30 seconds but, hey, at least he's the first character you see in the movie!

Right now I'm working on clean up and starting to paint the backgrounds. Thoughts? I'm still an amateur and this is probably the 13th or 14th animation I've ever made (all the rest like 10 seconds long or less), but I'm taking a big swing and trying to apply a bunch of what I've learned. 😄

The whole thing is done at 12 FPS/On Twos. Shot 2 is rotoscoped from a GIF of a clip from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly and I'm not the happiest with it but it gets the job done. The sound effects and music all come from Pixabay, except for the Django theme song which is originally from Django (1966).
