So I made a comfort animation lol

I really love your animation! I was wondering what program you use and if you have any tips?

Hey! Thank you and also thank you for your question!

I use Firealpaca for making the art for the animations and then I cut it together with the sound in a video editor. Next to a video editor I sometimes also use flipaclip to check if the animation is going smooth enough or should I fix something.

Planning is a big part for doing an animation, first of all do a little animatic kind of thing so you can play around with the idea you have in mind. The frames you drew for this kind of animatic can be good for keyframes for your animation too (keyframes are basicaly the main poses of how your character will move from A to B), and then you start to draw little movements between the key frames.

It's also important to know if you want your animation to move a little bit slower like when your character just starts moving to draw more and more frames/little movements so your animation will go smoother and if you want something to move faster you draw less frames (It's also really useful if you draw the frames with different colors, so you can better see what's going on and you won't get crazy by not knowing what is what)

Also when I do the face mimics I usually try to do the same with my own face, so I can imagine how would that look like on the actual animation xd So using references is also important when you're doing an animation! (Especially when you animate a difficult movement and real life references are really useful)

Since I'm mostly working in a simple drawing program lip syncing would be really hard to do without actually seeing how the movements matches with the sound so I also use flipaclip for that to see how the lip sync works so I can plant it into the actual animation, and check it later if everything looks fine (I just wanted to mention this part because if you do an animation for a sound where there's talking in it and you don't have any actual animation programs it can be really useful to see how other ways you can make your characters talk which also matches to the sound)

I could talk about animation a lot more and all day, but I don't want this answer to be too long to read xd There are lots of great tutorials on youtube where people can explain better how to animate, and also seeing a visual explanation through a video can help understand the things a lot better too! And also if you study how other animators do their animations! I also kind of learned how to animate by studying other people's animation styles (like in warriors cats maps, or in animation memes)

But someone can learn the most when they try it out themselves, so don't be afraid to experience and play around by doing small animations (Flipaclip is a really great app for that if you want to animate on phone/tablet) and you're gonna be better and better by practising and studying it more and more just like when you do simple artworks!

If you want any drawing programs where you can also animate in I can mention: Krita, Photoshop, Clipstudio Paint and I also want to mention TV Paint too. (I only tried Photoshop and TV Paint to animate and they're both really good for animations - I actually tried Krita too, but I didn't really like it so I didn't really get into using that)

This is a traditional Fanart that I made some time ago from one of the characters of the artist "Baked Potonion". The idea of this is born through a meme animation that is found in the Youtube channel of this artist, called "Why love me?".

(Este es un Fanart en tradicional que hice hace tiempo de uno de los personajes del artista "Baked Potonion". La idea de esto nace a travez de una animacion meme que se encuentra en el canal de Youtube de dicho artista, llamado "Why love me?")

As for the work, the plot is inspired by everything that happens in the animation, only with a slightly dark touch. Here Tyler develops a killer personality produced by the tree "parasite" in his chest, and also seems to imitate the blue stripes of another character called "Willow" (in truth, do not inquire much into the plot of the animation, so my apologies if I miss some important detail of it).

(En cuanto a la obra, la trama esta inspirada en todo lo que pasa en la animacion, solo que con un toque un poco oscuro. Aqui Tyler desarrolla una personalidad asesina producida por el arbol "parasito" en su pecho, y ademas parece imitar las franjas azules de otro personaje llamado "Willow" (en la verdad, no indague mucho en la trama de la animacion, asi que mis disculpas si me salto algun detalle importante de la misma))

Anyway, I really liked the result, so I hope you enjoy it :)

(En fin, en la verdad me gusto mucho el resultado, asi que espero que la disfruten :))

PS: I know that lately Tyler's design has changed a lot, so perhaps one of these days (or some not too distant future) he will do an update xd

(PD: se que ultimamente el diseño de Tyler ha cambiado mucho asi que quizas en un dia de estos (o en algun futuro no muy lejano) le haga una actualizacion xd)
