I would recommend you read The Animators Survival Kit by Richard Williams. It's like the holy bible for animators. That book will answer all your questions about timing and spacing.

Background Help Posted June 3rd, 2014 in Animation

Hi, I need a background created something like the one shown in this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XunezwEKHk
or the one shown in this video at 0:36

I was wondering if anyone knew what these types of backgrounds are called and if they know of any pre made ones.
I can create something like this however the quality looks like shit. If someone out theres know how to make something like that I'd like to chat with you for a few minutes.

Thanks

Flash Not Responding Posted May 28th, 2014 in Animation

I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS6 on my Laptop to create

an animation . Half the time I am using Adobe, its freezes on me

with a "Not Responding" message on top of the window and is then

unusable for a few minutes. This is really anoying when I'm in

the middle of something.
Is this do to the speed of my laptop or is there something else

that would cause this?
Thanks

you need to set the transformation point in the fingers to the same point in the arm. Unless the fingers move freely – then you'd have to add an arcing motion guide to each one.

Wow thanks! It's working now! :)
Feeling revealed.

Okay so I'm having a little trouble tween this arm. As you can see in the video the fingers don't move along with the hand and arm. Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

I found out what I was doing wrong. I had to have each symbol on it's on layer. Using the distribute to layers function this was fixed easily. I'm glad that's over with..

Yeh. I did this but it's still not working.

Flash Animation Help Posted April 15th, 2014 in Animation

I'm still kinda new to flash I'm not sure why the tween is messed up. I wanted the arm to rotate on the white sleeve. If anyone could help me with this I would appreciate it.

Though it seems like your going for quite a dramatic shot anyway, in which case, you're better off just FBF that shit!


We'll that's all the advice I can give on this. Hope you get something out of it. Good luck man!

Thanks, for the reply. What's FBF?

Animation Help Posted April 4th, 2014 in Animation

Okay. So I'm kinda a new to animating. I want to animate the grass blades moving (almost as if it was semi-windy) but I'm not really sure how to. I tried using the distort tool but it wouldn't correctly tween.
If someone could help me it would be great :)
