I would love a webinar by Cartoon Saloon on painting and creating brushes in Moho. I love Puffin Rock and would really like to learn how they did all the beautiful textures. My background is in traditional children's book illustration and so far I haven't been very successful in getting the look I w...

Wow, so kind! thanks so much, Guyver93. I love your tutorials -- Your character is delightful and the lessons are extremely helpful and often funny. Also it's very nice to listen to your kind voice.

[quote="Jademunky"]Very cool. I love the animation[/quote]
thanks so much for saying you love the animation! I really worked hard on it.

It is very effective and funny. the facial expressions and gestures are very good. well done! Sometimes the background overwhelms the characters a little, although this is also part of the artwork's style and charm. There are a few techniques that, when used judiciously, can help to make the backgro...

Have a look at my new picturebook trailer done in Anime Studio 11. It uses the artist's book illustrations, which I cut up in photoshop before animating in AS. 185879180 I'm very indebted to Guyver93 for his video tutorial on handwriting in Anime Studio which I watched over and over to help me do al...

loved it! Funny and true. very good voice acting and writing.

beautiful artwork! I love what the nother says to the children and the Anger fish's grateful speech. Great crab movement!

Synthsin, thanks so much! I have a mac and a wacom tablet, so did the equivalent of your suggestion. I option-tapped on frame 1 in the numbered bar in the timeline. When I did it the bar turned blue showing that my animation started at frame 1. Screen shot at this link. I can't figure out how to att...

When I hit play, my playhead jumps forward to frame 300. I've tried a number of things and looked in the manuals for an answer, but so far haven't been able to get my animation to just play from 1 without skipping ahead. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Many thanks.

thanks for the links. I enjoyed watching the film. The steampunk atmosphere reminded me of The Mysterious Explorations of Jasper Morello http://youtu.be/vORsKyopHyM. I also like Si Lunchai which synthesizes German and Indonesian traditions of silhouette cutout animation. I like the rich colour backg...

It's an overview of all animation methods that includes video interviews, theory (squash and stretch, timing etc), watching movies, discussion in a comments section with other students (over 300 from all over), and exercises. You upload your finished exercise to youtube and the instructors make a pl...

The Open University is offering a FREE 4-week course called Explore Animation, starting today. The community of students posting online is already very interesting. People of all ages from all over the world are answering the question "What animated film sparked your interest?" Fascinating...

Genius!

Lovely article in the Guardian with video about Lotte Reiniger who made one of the first animated feature films https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/j ... are_btn_fb

thank you, thank you Slow Tiger for the update on how to export a Quicktime movie with transparency. It's not in the latest manual. I just did as you recommended and now have my little jumping mouse to composite onto the background.
