Back here in 2022 with so much gratitude for Alan Becker doing this tutorial. Explained every important thing in Flash within 6 minutes while there are other video tutorials teaching only one basic for 30 minutes. I admired the way he taught. His paced matched with everyone surely. This is one of those videos Teachers would hide from their students else they wouldn't get paid. You're my hero Alan Becker. You should give a Toon Boom Harmony tutorial too.
This is the most clear animation tutorial I have ever seen in my life. And that program you use, the adobe flash one, has some pretty nice tools I wish more products around here would implement... Also, I absolutely love your smooth animations and creative story lines for animator vs animation videos. Though they are just stick-figures, it's some of the best animation I've seen on RUclips. Keep up the amazing work @AlanBecker ~nightsoul
okay, i got some new ideas for ink 0:32 extremely nice intro to vector vs raster 1:36 warp object 2:09 decko tool (brushed strokes) 4:14 per object outline mode
***** Well, I'm not the one cussing and can't you put some effort into finding the price instead of just commenting and making other people do the work?
Dude... More people should teach like you. Your straight to the point and you never lost my attention. I was so focused that I didn't even look at the time to see if the video was almost over. Great stuff. You should do more. Your good you!
dude, your tutorial is much more easier to learn and less boring, weve been talking about this in class, and it doesn't get it in my head, thanks a lot!
Wish every tutorial on youtube would be like this. All you need in 6:12 - every other video would have lasted for at least an hour with all that information.
Is Flash still the best/the favorite after all these years? I wonder if there are better options now as I am looking to get into animation but is unsure where or how to start. A reply of any kind would be much appreciated. :)
Flash is yes, still the best choice Used by most animators in the world. Though there are alts flying around, like Opentoonz and Krita. So you may or may not want to try those before going to flash.
I have a problem with my Flash CC's brush. When i make a line, the line won't be fluid and make angles. I also have Photoshop CC and i don't have this problem, so it's not my tablet. If anyone knows a solution, thank you, Sorry for my english btw
YahtzDehGamer Thank you but it's already at 50, actually, when i draw slowly the line is correct, but when i have to draw faster, the line become angular...
Well, I tested some things out and apparently I have a similar problem. But like you said, it works when you draw slower, which I know is a bad solution but it's all I got right now. I would like to help you out more but I stayed up wayyy too late last night, I'll hopefully get back to you when in a bit though. :D
Man, I should've seen these videos before I made my animation in Paint.NET and upload it to RUclips. I mean i'm still a beginner and i'm also not old enough to buy stuff online. But still, this video shall remind me when i'm gonna use Adobe Flash in the future. So thank you for uploading these tutorials Alan!
Okay so in five minutes you gave me more and better instruction on using flash's basic tools than a semester of a graphic design class at my college did. This is ridiculous.
Hey Alan thank you for all the help you have given in this video I don't have flash but I used your stickman tutorial and the rules and added frames inbetween and it works like a charm thank you again!
i appreciate these flash tutor vids so much. im learning about flash in school and since i have trouble concentrating i sometimes mess up or dont know what im doing, so this rly helped :>
Hey Alan, I was talking to my Dad about getting Flash, and he said that Flash is extremely vulnerable, and that getting it can make it easy for things to do what the Stick Figure did to your computer in Animator VS. Animation III.
I like Alan Becker over other RUclips "tutorials" for he is so concise, comprehensive and professional. Watching those other RUclipsrs wasted all my time. Thank you Alan.
This was just...excellent, I wish there were more videos like this, not just for digital art but everything. Quick simple to-the-point explanations without meaningless bullshit.
Wait so I have to buy it? Well, first of all, link me to a site where I can look at it (like the price and stuff) that doesn't give me viruses or weird pop-ups, just a normal website.
+Heysian Popnley You can get any program for free... It's not legal but you can get it very easily by just searching "Adobe Flash CC/CS6 free download"
I was just using animate rn and I was screwing up a bit on my first animation and I was like “*Alan I need help*” so I went to this playlist 😂😂😂😂😂 also thanks man this helped me out
thanks bro ive been watching your animations since 2018 and now i can finally make animation using this channel and whichever animation i make ill give link in my discription so they can subscribe you too
its not. only flash player and flash websites are going to shut down because its outdated and for some security reasons aswell. the programs arent being shut down and still will be useable. however adobe took down the legacy installers a little while ago and you have to use 3rd party websites to get access to those installers. and also when you get flash you have to export your videos to a non flash made format. and do not worry. the 3rd party methods arent exactly cracked verisons of flash. they hand out free serial keys to use in the legacy flash setup. so it is completely legal. also its not subscription based so your pretty much good to go. i can give you my discord to get access to old adobe animate products.
Well, considering this was a very short video and he didn't really go in-depth, it's abit confusing. Watch more beginner friendly tutorials if you found it confusing. Helped me.
long story short. i found the animation vs animator in like april or so. then, after summer. im having 6th. and in computer class were learning how to animate using adobe flash. then i realized that animation vs animator was made using flash and the alan is making tutorials on flash.... oh boi this gon be gud
Though Adobe Flash dead:-(.. This video helping me for my semester exam preparation.. Cause I have subject named Flash in my final semester. And we even did practicals On Adobe flash cs6 in 2022😔 But i guess it's no longer useful for my future 😔
Chocolate Stark Just remind: When you are unable to fill one area with color ,try following tricks 1. click the button “enclose the big gap" in the tool bar 2 Another solution is to select all the lines forming the closed area which seem to cross each other , and click to" break them" or press"Ctrl +B". It works for me
Me watching it till this day and learned. 18/10/2020 I hope you make some more like how to animate a car, or robot. With friendly beginner's instruction.
AlanBeckerTutorials, please make revamped videos about your old tutorial videos like revamping or improving the video on the tutorials about using screenshots, gradients, and others related on how to use the Adobe Flash/Animate animating and video editing software.

Animate is a thing now. It's basically Flash the second.

I have a problem with my Flash CC's brush. When i make a line, the line won't be fluid and make angles.
I also have Photoshop CC and i don't have this problem, so it's not my tablet.
If anyone knows a solution, thank you, Sorry for my english btw
Zen typa Get teh brush tool selected and look for a setting called smoothing. Mess with it until it's just right.
YahtzDehGamer Thank you but it's already at 50, actually, when i draw slowly the line is correct, but when i have to draw faster, the line become angular...
Weird, I can't think of anything else off the top of my head. :/ I'll reply back if I can think of anything, hopefully this can be fixed soon.
YahtzDehGamer Thank you!
Well, I tested some things out and apparently I have a similar problem. But like you said, it works when you draw slower, which I know is a bad solution but it's all I got right now.

1 question. Does the flash that he uses cost money?
PsychicEnderman yeah, its like $80 or more, i forgot the price
GrandNecro
Ok, thanks.
For me its £20 per month
Zeref Dragneel you must have bought it late, back when i buy it, it was $80 or something near that price for a lifetime use. Adobe Flash CS6
GrandNecro just download the trial version, and then download adobe patcher. Then you patch your own adobe flash, so its now full version
