This isnt so much a tutorial as more of a motivational piece. If you are a mouse artist dont give up! you can conquer that device for drawing. Fuck you tablets.

Luis, that's motivational and all but ummm... is that doing the video? If that was you, you seem a bit restless...

I found it proving a point. Anyway, if your not going for extremely hard animations, it's not all that hard with a mouse. It just takes a bit more time and... 300$ less. Isnt that how much a wacom costs? or was it like 700$?

I believe this still holds plausable for the Animation: Main, so it can be cross referenced. I know there are enough animators who need help with sound, bitmap, and file compression.

Make this flash: main instead, so its not just animation, but art, animation, sound, anything flash-related that isn't AS.

do you use photoshop in animations? or what

sometimes.. depends on the situation.. sometimes my backgrounds are photoshop sometimes not. If they are gonna tween usually not. Usualy those trademark splash stills i do in almost all my movies are photoshop.. you know like when theres a pause in the action .. hard to explain. People who know my work know what im talking about.

Early instances of it can be found in murray the monkey.

i think that if you show some of your animation that the mods will allow it.
