great fbf animator needed

[reality-monkey]

first, this is not like ill hire you, i just need help. i want to get better, i can already draw good enough, and i can make fbf better than about 89 percent of ng, but i want to get better, and want to know wat w the best way to practice? just snimate watever pops into your head, or is there sumthign that you can animate that helps you learn how motion works and that you can practice at? i need to know, ive been animating run cycles (im getting better, but i dont like it yet) and if i keep doing that will that help me all round, or just help me do the run cycle. animating is different than drawing in some ways and one of those ways is animating, so can anyone help me? ill post a link to sumthing i have so you can see how im doing

looks fine and very smooth (im guessing the full 12 fps in flash) but I suggest going over each of the layers for a much smoother and less confussing look. 9 times out of 10, Frame-by-Frame animation will look better than tweening, but there are the major problems of skillfully animating for consistancy and speed, which can be very difficult, and the fact that FBF takes much much longer to illistrate.

The current flash is very well done, and I personally think you could get away with an even slower frame rate just to save some time and work. I would reccomend refining the figure though if you would like the piece to look better.

I'm doing a FBF piece myself, but I don't have it availble at the moment.

I think what you show here is great. Depending on your style I soudl suggest trying to have better continuity when the characters in motion. It makes it look lightly jittery like a david firth background.

i will refine it once i like the way it looks, and the thing is set to 30, but when i upload the file on that site thingy watever it is, it lowers it to 12 i think, but its usually 30
