Is there a good futere in tiktok for animators?I wonder where to strat youtube or tikttok

[@ROVideos]

@@user-xx7mx1bm6n For any artist exposure is important and there is an audience (with different attention spans and interests) on that and all other platforms. As an animator YES there’s future on all platforms that you could be. (Do not limit yourself to ONE platform).

Glad to see the next session! :D

Thanks for explaining this! I realized that my jump animation didn't have anticipation.

[@compsVFX]

Thanks for this! Off topic question: Of all the online animation schools out there (AnimSchool, Animation Mentor, etc..) in your opinion, which one is the best?

[@FredtheMonkeyDotCom]

Studio Technique. Unfortunately it is presently on hiatus. But keep an eye out, because that is worth doing when it returns!
Beyond that, though, here's the big secret: Any art school can be great or terrible depending almost exclusively on the amount of effort you are willing to put in. Literally that is the make-it-or-break-it factor. I've seen people go to CalArts (a fantastic school) and come away with almost no improvement. The school can't fix lethargy or lack of will. Conversely some of the greatest animators the world has ever known never even took a formal class. They did study after study of great animation (sometimes via VHS tape and paper, which is serious commitment!) and built their skill because they wanted it so badly.
So don't fret too much about picking a school or class. Find teachers/a mentor who will help you and then use every ounce of your desire and drive to push yourself to be the greatest artist possible. YOU determine how high you fly when it comes to art. :)

nice, :DD

[@addhyangoswami4157]

Sir can you suggest blender vs opentoonz vs krita for animated plzzzzz reply plzzzzzz

[@mlbbhighlights7672]

Is Intel Celeron is enough for opentoonz?

Hard to say without knowing all the specs. Why don't you just try it? It's free to download. I found the bottleneck very often to be RAM and the graphics processing.
