How to Make More Animation / Drawings in Less Time - Helpful Tips 

well obviously the drawings would have value well while animating/drawing thinking about your drawings before,during and after is kinda just basic stuff yeah i would obviously document it Finish your animations

When I think of warm up drawings I always thought you kinda are exploring possibilities for what you're going to do for the finished product but if it's aimless I can see it not being helpful

I love your animations ❤

:0 it's the nutmaster

Gilded guy!!!

I wasnt expecting you here anyways please make some tutorials please :(

WOW, your here too

@Deepest Red alright, I hear you. Thanks.

Same, in hindsight it was something that nearly doubled the time I took on a project it practically

MX5DoEtRick27 I’m two difficult animation on my own

yeah good idea! This was at approx 400% speed

It's a video on speeding up the process for animation not spending hours on one drawing

@Someone Thank you!

Wait, sorry I'm confused. So is my comment bad criticism? I thought I was being polite.....

Oh, alright I mean I'm shocked but..... Alright.......

that could have been avoided by following a proper animation pipeline method. Download the animator's checklist PDF on my website i show you this structure

I know the principles of art have somewhat been tackled on other videos but I think it would be helpful for other people who hasn't realize and seen that shadow pass right infront of them.

Yay! Thank you!

1. I'm happy in TVPaint, however it is certainly not the perfect program - it has problems of its own which I can put up with. 2. That is my own sort of code for my keyframes - it is a little unorthodox at times because i don't use a timesheet - I find that timesheets make my animation very stiff and lifeless. Usually I only use the code in the corner for traditional animation on a lightbox but for this one i wanted each frame to also be identified as i was handing it into my class for some group feedback.

That's just how large the file size is when your record, try lowering the overall quality, it'll help a bit.

thank you!

I'm using a custom TVPaint brush

@@HowardWimshurst Tnx

Hey JK Milano, Yes i think the Wacom 13HD is a great choice of tablet, even if you get an older version

made by Oseas kline It is currently unreleased to the public, he is my friend and that is how I can use it

tell him to keep it up man gets me in flow state easily , I play this video in the baccground while practicing digital art

Go to croquis cafe’s RU-vid channel , animators use real life poses then translate them into their art work.

@Deepest Red i've tried that but the sad thing is that most people cant do anime shit in the air HHAHAH no but thank you for the reply mate :D

@@jeffonspikes5567 I will give it a look thanks man :)

You can try look for some action poses on pinterest

@@edcelmendoza9161 and use them as a reference? Yeah could genuinly be good because the drawing on printerest are so cool Ey thank you man :)

@Deepest Red Thank you!

@Deepest Red Thank you for the info appreciate it :)

The one he seems to be using in this video is TVPaint which costs quite a bit but like Deepest Red already suggested Krita is a good free substitute.

Thank you dude You can do it too!

Tv paint

tvpaint

I think tvpaint 11

Ahahaha

Just know that if you're posting comments on my videos; this is my domain here on the internet and if I see comment chains in here which are insulting me and patronizing then I will delete the comment chain. I don't have the time or patience for negativity. That is the very low bar that I set for people who benefit from my videos. I give courtesy to everyone and I expect it in return. You can set up a little forum somewhere in some corner of the internet where your buddies can all take turns criticizing my work without any filters. Just don't do it on my video where I have to scroll past it and read it.

and for your information, I do now work full time as a professional animator and I'm getting plenty of work opportunities

@Deepest Red Ik, I was saying in the reply I was confused at first to what happened to it

@Deepest Red Last reply I'll add to this chain, someone on the discord server said this on the situation which I think helped me think about this better "He posted a video giving advice on time-saving and some guy criticizes something completely unrelated and says you shouldn't be giving advice. He didn't want that in his comment section so deleted it, but then someone else brings it up again. " So for Howards sake I'll stop the replying now

@Deepest Red​ 1) Ok I don't think I should even need to do this, it's pretty obvious but since you don't seem to get it and you're being very persistent, I'll spell it out for you. I am not forcing anyone to do anything. IF you like my work and want to hear my opinion and benefit from my advice, you can listen to what I say. If you disagree, you're not being forced to do anything. Please don't pretend that you lack the free will to make basic decisions for yourself, and certainly don't imply that my audience doesn't have the agency or intellect to come to their own conclusions. Sure, I'm still learning animation. I'm going to continue learning animation until I die one day. You can never learn everything there is to know about the subject. I never claim to know everything. "Learn the art of animation" - That includes me. I learn the art of animation. we're all learning. Even you, the apparently all-knowing "Deepest Red", have a lot more to learn. 2) Now you're saying I get defensive about criticism. Nope. Critical feedback is nothing new to me. I took on board your points of criticism. I'll take on-board criticism from anyone, anywhere. How I choose to act on that criticism is my decision. Voicing your criticism to an artist does not by default give you the power to force them to change their approach. As it turns out, I am actively working towards improving my character animation and draftsmanship skills - I'm sure you will be happy to know. Numerous colleagues (That's right, I graduated with a first class BA degree in Animation and I am a full-time working professional) have advised me that as an artist it will open up more doors to me if I can demonstrate clean animation, more nuanced character animation and stronger design fundamentals. I am actively working on it. You have assumed that i was getting defensive about criticism, when I already explained why I deleted the comment chain. I deleted it because contained within the fair criticism was rude, patronizing insults from another RU-vid user, the kind of slander that could damage my reputation. That is uncalled for. And just because this is the internet doesn't mean you can just drop courtesy when talking to me or about me. 3) Looks like you are falling into the same old problem that so many other overly emotional critics do. Again, I'm going to need to spell out something that should be obvious: this is a specific video, to help people with a specific problem - that of wanting to make more drawings in less time. All of my videos are this way. I would never make a video which says "everything you need to know about animation". Similarly, I could sympathize with your point more if the video was called "why cleanup is never important in animation". but I'm not saying that. Looks like you have such a strong agenda towards advocating cleanup that you cannot even see that is not relevant to what I am talking about in the video. 4) You feel super strongly about clean outlining and neatness. Okay I get it dude. That's your thing that you're crazy about. I disagree with your opinion. Sorry! You're probably inspired by very different people than I am. I'm inspired by Glen Keane. He doesn't do his own cleanup. Ever. He is specifically a key animator, cleanup is not in his job description. He made a beautiful film called Duet, you might have heard of it - it was a huge success. And shock horror! it wasn't made with clean lines! Say what you want about that but he is one of the most commercially successful animators in the world and, well, numbers don't lie. Aesthetically, I am very inspired by Russ Mills, Tkki, Moustashrik and many others who choose vivid artistic expression - sometimes straying into the world of the abstract - over a compulsion for neatness. And you know what? You still haven't explained WHY being neat is so compulsory. Why do you think it is so necessary to dull down the vivid dynamic energy of some fresh key animation with some cold sterile clean lines? Animation is an expressive medium, we are not confined to the boundaries of the physical realm, and we can use this to our advantage to express ideas in ways that no other medium is able to. So I'll ask again. Why do you think neat lines are so compulsory? 5) Okay, I really didn't want to go on the offensive here. I've now taken a look at your channel, and you appear to be about as far away from "industry professional" as you could possibly get. And after all of that talk about how important it is to finish your work, I see nothing but poorly drawn, rushed pieces of unfinished work with terrible proportions. So really, who is in the right when it comes to giving out advice? Certainly not you. It seems like on one hand you are saying that I am not fit to be giving advice on the internet, whilst simultaneously posing as a guru who knows it all. So if anyone is giving out potentially harmful unqualified instructions to other animators, it is you. So now my criticism to you: If you're going to take apart my work, at least don't be a hypocrite. This will be my last response to this. It is taking up too much of my time when I should be working and frankly, it is tedious to explain things to you which should be obvious. If you stop coming to your own conclusions and you drop these absurd biases you have against me and my work, then we can have a proper discussion.
