Gosh bro, this stickman tut video is the best from the best! It works for me!!!! I've already watch another stickman tut, but this video is the one who changed and inspired me on animating my laggy stick again lol (hyun tutorial is cool, but i can't learn how he animate his stickman with his own style, when i try on my own, it always laggy) THUMB UP FOR YOU BRO!
this is the ONLY good tutorial i could find for walking stickman. thanks, it's still pretty hard, but have to practice for that i guess... anyways, thanks for this tutorial, it helps me out alot and i'm working on a big project i know it's a late comment, but i still apreciate it
illuminartist it did........srsly type in youtube for some macromedia flash tuts and everyones doing notepad text and load backrouind music........lol sokme of them still helped tho
THANKS A LOT! I was stressing so much for an art project, we have to make a stopmotion, and i just couldn’t find out how to draw my stickman walking, this really helped. So again Thanks :D
illuminartist I'm trying to follow this tutorial now but i'm really struggeling to draw the stick man. Whenever i try to actually draw this, the lines are always wonky and never as good as yours. I assume you've had experience for a while, but i dont know how i can improve this problem as using a mouse is really hard!
yeah,animating with a mouse can be a real nightmare.I began with mouse too, then quickly switched to a laptop touchpad.This tutorial was done using that. Though if you're rly serious i highly recommend a wacom tablet, and lots of practice :)
illuminartist It was really hard to get the lines straight, and at times impossible. I struggled as everytime i did a new frame the character seemed to grow/shrink or become totally different. Even with onion skinning. How do i make the character exactly the same every time, but with altered body movements? and how does the laptop make it better?
hey here are some suggestions in order to get better lines- 1.check your smooth settings on the brush and adjust it an optimum level 2.make faster strokes- dont make it tooo slowly just to get it right 3.a laptop touchpad gives you more control as you have to move your fingers to draw instead of a mouse 4.resizing is a pretty common problem, you're not alone :) try using graphs and guidelines If you need help i'll create a tut on preventing resizing of stickfigure..hope this helps :)
Yup, it is a bit too loud.Using headphones might solve the problems to a good extent. Sorry for any inconveniences :) p.s wanted to replace the video with a low volume one but i lost my work file so will have to stick with this.
the animation loop concept would be the same even on iMac, which is the first frame being the same as the last frame,although i reckon the commands or key buttons would be different.
Best tutorial ever!!! bro where do you learn abput this amazing movement? you know my first walk cycle look like someone who didn't know how to walk hahaha, but your knowledge of body flow on activities is amazing, where do you learn those references?
idk of you're dead cuz this was uploaded 2013 and now its 2016 but can you teach me slower in the sneaky peeky part cuz that's what iam trying to animate
Hi the animation at the time was done in Macromedia Flash , now purchased by Adobe and called Adobe Animate. It is also really expensive, so as a free alternative you can check out "Opentoonz" which has powerful features too!
Hi! I'm having a bit of a problem. When I insert a keyframe on the next frame, my stick man shows up, and when I put de Onion Skin, it stays there, black, and not grey, like it supposed to be. Do you know what could be happening? And awesome tutorial, by the way (:
***** Some tablets dont have that option I believe. I've got a tablet and I used flash cs6 but it doesn't show the pressure sensitive brush tool so... unless I haven't updated it and such which I dont know how to
hey just stick to it! if your problem is in basic drawing i suggest u warm up with books such as "Drawing on the right side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards..not that it helps animating directly, but u'll be confident in putting your stick poses down.
BatriX Plays Macromedia was bought by Adobe, so now you'd have to go for Adobe Flash Professional. However its not a free software.You could surely find other free softwares which serve same purpose
+Muhd Asyraf I used to use mouse previously but now I use a drawing tablet. You could get pretty inexpensive ones these days which are worth the investment :)
I just subscribed! I downloaded but the only thing was that i couldn't open it with macromedia flash 8 . So i used Adobe flash cs5 ( On another computer). It was made wth cs6 :( . Anyways I kept drawing and drawing until i grew familiar with it .I will use this when i can post my first animation! . I will credit you as inspiration for the walking sequence (and everything else)
Andra Hayeechema Hi there! Sorry the download doesnt work anymore, hopefully I will be able to create a new one by tomorrow cause there have been too many requests :)
this video truly has a good audio quality
lol thanks!

THUMB UP FOR YOU BRO!
Hey I'm really glad it helped! Cheers :)
illuminartist hey, do you use a drawing tablet such as wacom? or are you using your mouse?
hey there,
this video was made using a mouse. But presently i use a tablet, a wacom bambo manga :)
I'm having a hard time hearing you over the music. Thanks for trying though.
this is the ONLY good tutorial i could find for walking stickman.
thanks, it's still pretty hard, but have to practice for that i guess...
anyways, thanks for this tutorial, it helps me out alot and i'm working on a big project
i know it's a late comment, but i still apreciate it
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it :)
Yolo GamerJack i
Yolo GamerJack you are so right
nonononononono go to Alan Becker's channel he got tutorial vids too
wow u were the only youtube who made a good quality video for macromedia flash with a good commentary.....nice work bro keep it up
glad it helped :)
illuminartist it did........srsly type in youtube for some macromedia flash tuts and everyones doing notepad text and load backrouind music........lol sokme of them still helped tho
how can you draw it so precisely, it's hard to control my mouse only if you use drawing board.
THANKS A LOT! I was stressing so much for an art project, we have to make a stopmotion, and i just couldn’t find out how to draw my stickman walking, this really helped. So again Thanks :D
I'm so glad it helped :)
Dude your animations are so smooth and fluid.i subbed you deserve more
Thank you so much!
What's program?
It was adobe flash, now known as adobe animate cc
@@illuminartist992 thx
You should never put music over a tutorial. its really hard to hear what you're saying.
i'll sure keep that in mind while putting up the next one! and if it helps, using headphones for this one should really do the job for now. Thanks :)

lol it's a recommendation on youtube in 2020
lol..i use Adobe Flash CS6 for all major projects..just that i still love the simple macromedia interface :)
This is the perfect tutorial i was looking for
Thank you!
I'm not sure what it was but i usually slide between 30 to 40 :)
what 's your brush settings?
I LOVE this tutorial, but I think that the music should be quieter, or there should be no music at all.
Could i ask why you aren't using Adobe Flash CS5 in this day and age?
Yup, it is a bit too loud.Using headphones might solve the problems to a good extent. Sorry for any inconveniences :)
p.s wanted to replace the video with a low volume one but i lost my work file so will have to stick with this.
what soothing value do u use for ur brush?
Which shortcut key you used to go to next key frame?
F5,F6 and F7 keys are generally used to create frames,keyframes, or empty keyframes. And you can travel keyframes simply with < or > keys
Your technique where animating in one place is a great idea.
+Mighty Madness Thanks. I use different methods at different times though, which also depends on the scene :)
How much smoothing do you use on your brush?
In flash pro CC 2014, how do I get the loop thing? (I use a 2007 iMac)
the animation loop concept would be the same even on iMac, which is the first frame being the same as the last frame,although i reckon the commands or key buttons would be different.
illuminartist Oh, nevermind I meant the open in flash professional thing. I found it now :)
this guys going through a phase
its 2020
illuminartist what do you make you animations on??
your*
Samurai Steel okay thanks
how do you get object drawing?
please tell me do you use perfect brush smoothing and if yes how much is it
ur awesome at animation can please make a tutorial on how to make a stickfigure game?
what smoothing are you using?
Best tutorial ever!!! bro where do you learn abput this amazing movement? you know my first walk cycle look like someone who didn't know how to walk hahaha, but your knowledge of body flow on activities is amazing, where do you learn those references?
My first walk looked like the guy was either doing the Harlem shake in salt with cuts on his legs or... He had no legs..
idk of you're dead cuz this was uploaded 2013 and now its 2016 but can you teach me slower in the sneaky peeky part cuz that's what iam trying to animate
certainly true, if you compare to a computer's mouse :)
Hello where are you editing a animstion
I already have laptop I just need is app where you animate
Thanks for answer★♥
Hi the animation at the time was done in Macromedia Flash , now purchased by Adobe and called Adobe Animate. It is also really expensive, so as a free alternative you can check out "Opentoonz" which has powerful features too!
Thanks for sharing. Very generous of you.
You’re very welcome :)
Do you have a graphic tablet?
If so which one?
The name plez
Thanks man! it really helped me out :)
Hi! I'm having a bit of a problem. When I insert a keyframe on the next frame, my stick man shows up, and when I put de Onion Skin, it stays there, black, and not grey, like it supposed to be. Do you know what could be happening? And awesome tutorial, by the way (:
press F7
Thanks :) Was very nice tutorial. Just less music, but thank you :)
What type of computer do you have?
Well its an old DELL INSPIRON 1545R laptop.
Do you use like a drawing tablet or something?
well if that so, he's awesome at drawing using mouse...
***** Some tablets dont have that option I believe. I've got a tablet and I used flash cs6 but it doesn't show the pressure sensitive brush tool so... unless I haven't updated it and such which I dont know how to
Ive done the same thing no problem, no tablet needed only used my GAMING MOUSE!
Go to Control Panel - Mouse - Slow down the mouse
but how to make that so the stick walk to the left and just walk in place?
Hey..once you've made it a 'movie clip symbol', you can tween the move clip from left to right using motion tween at any place
Or you can use stick nodes
Hey do you use a tablet?
Well at the time i made the above video i didn't use a tablet, but now i do..Wacom Bamboo Manga..and it does prove to be an amazing aid.
old and hard to understand but end of the day still useful 👍
Hi ! I plan to make a new one using blender for 2d! Stay tuned if you're interested for an updated version!
You got a tablet?
Hi

illuminartist AHhhhhh i suck at this.. i keep trying and i even bought a wacom intous and still i suck! D:
hey just stick to it! if your problem is in basic drawing i suggest u warm up with books such as "Drawing on the right side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards..not that it helps animating directly, but u'll be confident in putting your stick poses down.
Awesome but one request: please make your voice louder

***** Where do you get Macromedia flash 8, they don't seem to have it anymore. If you can, can you put a link that's SAFE. Thanks.
BatriX Plays Macromedia was bought by Adobe, so now you'd have to go for Adobe Flash Professional. However its not a free software.You could surely find other free softwares which serve same purpose
BatriX Plays

How you draw stickman using mouse?
+Muhd Asyraf I used to use mouse previously but now I use a drawing tablet. You could get pretty inexpensive ones these days which are worth the investment :)

Adobe flash- which is presently known as Adobe animate
