    krita is my go-to. good for doing anime style animation since there's so much control to what you can draw. it's like Photoshop with a animation timeline

      HA! Krita is terrible! But if you can use it then I guess that is all that matters at the end of the day. Bu personally I've tried it and it's awful.

      @@schnoig_ - I think the interface is bad and isn't convenient for beginners, I don't like how you can't use Ctrl + Alt + Z to undo mistakes, there's NO FREAKING ERASER, and I just have a hard time trying to set up layers and stuff. Again, if you and others can use it, more power to you guys, but I personally tried it and I cannot stand it. It clashes with me. That's all.

    i went from drawing on paper
    to MS paint
    To Gimp 2.8
    then Krita
    tried photoshop but hated it and krita does same or similar things to photoshop in terms of basic stuff
    but UI is different krita has a smaller team so it cant overthrow photoshop yet oh and krita mask tool is a bit clunky but overall a solid option if you dont want to pirate adobe overpriced products monthly subscriptions thats like a year worth of wage if you live in third world country

    Great tutorial! Our non-profit would like to offer an animation class for pre-teens and we are not sure what software to use. We have decent computers for video editing, but would prefer not to purchase tablets at this point. The program should be easy to learn/teach, and it would be great if they could create a little narrative with sound. (Class is 25 hours of instruction) All of your featured programs look good. Any recs on which one you would chose to teach beginners? Thanks in advance!

    • @TJFREE
      @TJFREE  3 года назад +1

      Good question, Sue. I would go with Krita or Pencil. Pencil is fairly basic, and would be best for beginners, while Krita is a little more advanced, but still beginner friendly. Krita can also be used as a drawing only program, and learning it will give users a versatile skill for the future.
